Download or read book Intersol Eighty Five written by E. Bilgen and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 2744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These volumes bring together, from all over the world, papers from specialists working in all the diverse forms of energy derived from the sun. Experts in all fields of research in solar and renewable energy have also contributed an added feature: the latest research and developments in related areas such as wind energy, biomass, photovoltaics and energy conversion. Emphasis is placed on the many solutions solar and renewable energy offers to the global energy problem, and the different ways of combining solar and renewable energy to solve these problems. The work should stimulate readers to consider the broader horizons of renewable energy, energy conservation and the impact of new technologies on society...from the small remote village to the modern metropolis.

Download or read book Components of productivity of Mediterranean climate regions Basic and applied aspects written by N.S. Margaris and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our knowledge of the functional characteristics of the plants of mediterranean-cl imate regions has increased greatly in the past decade. In recent times the possibility of large-scale util ization of biomass for energy from these regions has been proposed. In order to assess the feasibil ity of these proposals we must consider the productive structure of these plant communities and how they vary through time and space. This symposium was an attempt to examine our recently acquired basic knowledge of the environmental I imitations on the productivity of Mediterranean plant communities in relation to the consequences of the possible util ization of these communities for energy and chemicals. Specifically in this book we examine the mechanisms by which plants of mediterranean-cl imate regions maintain their productive capacity under the prevail ing conditions of summer draught and winter cold. We consider the characteristics of leaves, their history, morphology and plasticity. Evergreen sclerophyll leaves are common to the dominant plants of all mediterranean-cl imate regions and thus they have significance in terms of enhancing carbon gain and water-use efficiency as well as ensuring survival under the prevail ing cl imatic conditions.
Download or read book Urban Energy Systems for Low Carbon Cities written by Ursula Eicker and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With an increase of global energy demand arising in urban settlements, the key challenges for the urban energy transition include analysis of energy efficiency options and the potential of renewable energy systems within the existing building stock, making cities a key actor in the transition success. In Urban Energy Systems for Low Carbon Cities, indicators to evaluate urban energy performance are introduced and the status quo of monitoring and efficiency valuation schemes are discussed. The book discusses advances on the state-of-the-art of research in a number of key areas: - Energy demand and consumption mapping and monitoring - Optimization of design and operation of urban supply and distribution systems - Integration of renewable energy and urban energy network models - Demand side management strategies to better match renewable supply and demand and increase flexibilities With innovative modelling methods this book gives a real bottom-up modelling approach used for the simulation of energy consumption, energy conversion systems and distribution networks using engineering methods. - Provides support and guidance on the energy transition issues relating to energy demand, consumption mapping and monitoring - Includes examples from case study cities, including Vienna, Geneva, New York and Stuttgart - Analyzes the potential of energy management strategies in urban areas
Download or read book Waste Management in MENA Regions written by Abdelazim M Negm and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-05 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents the state-of-the-art document describing the knowledge, data, cost-effectiveness and technologies employed to manage the waste in several countries such as Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordon, Syria, Palestine, Lebanon, and Yemen. It covers diverse topics including the status of the waste in the region, solid waste management, solid waste recovery and disposal, the use of the agricultural waste in feeding poultry, sludge disposal and management, wastewater treatment and energy production. Also, the book explains how waste management systems are becoming more complex in many countries with the move from landfill-based to resource recovery-based solutions following the setting of international and national targets to divert waste from landfill and to increase recycling and recovery rates. Besides, this book also evaluates the environmental legislation in the selected countries and suggests new performance enhancements. This book is of interest to environmental professionals including scientists and policymakers in the Middle East, North Africa, and areas with similar features.

Download or read book Energy in the Development of New Caledonia written by Yves le Bars and published by IRD Editions. This book was released on 2010 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans un contexte de raréfaction des ressources en énergie fossile et de changements climatiques, la Nouvelle-Calédonie, qui n’est pas actuellement soumise au protocole de Kyoto, doit répondre aux préoccupations environnementales et trouver les voies et moyens d’une moins grande dépendance énergétique. Au moment où le Territoire définit son Schéma d’aménagement et de développement 2025 et, dans le prolongement, son Schéma de l’énergie et du climat, le gouvernement de la Nouvelle-Calédonie et l’ADEME, via le Comité territorial pour la maîtrise de l’énergie (CTME), ont demandé à l’Institut de recherche pour le développement (IRD) de produire un état des lieux complet et une analyse pluridisciplinaire des enjeux constitutifs de la question de l’énergie dans le développement de la Nouvelle-Calédonie. La maîtrise de l’énergie, les nouvelles technologies en matière de production et de stockage d’énergie, les moyens de réduction des émissions de gaz à effet de serre, la géopolitique de l’énergie et du climat et la coopération régionale, la gouvernance de l’énergie et du climat en Nouvelle-Calédonie, ont ainsi été examinés au cours de l’année 2009 par un collège d’experts qui en restitue ici le bilan détaillé. Cette expertise collégiale, qui a mobilisé l’ensemble des données scientifiques disponibles pour les décliner sur le cas particulier de la Nouvelle-Calédonie, livre une série de recommandations qui pourront utilement venir à l’appui des politiques que le Territoire est sur le point de se donner.
