Industrial Energy Efficiency Opportunities in Ukraine

As part of the energy assistance program to help Ukraine shut down the Chornobyl nuclear reactors, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) asked the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) to identify and appraise industrial energy efficiency projects in Ukraine. The industrial sector currently accounts for over 60% of Ukraine’s energy consumption. Most industrial enterprises in Ukraine use en...

application of data envelopment analysis for performance assessment and energy efficiency improvement opportunities in greenhouses cucumber production

in the present study, an attempt has been made to use data envelopment analysis (dea) for assessing the technical efficiency and return-to-scale for greenhouse cucumber production in iran. for this purpose, the data from greenhouses in esfahan province, during one period of plant cultivation in one year including spring plants were randomly collected. the results indicated that total input ener...

Measuring Transport Protocol Potential for Energy Efficiency

We investigate the energy-saving potential of transport protocols. We focus on the system-related aspect of energy. Do we have to damage or enhance system fairness in order to provide energy efficiency? We depart from defining protocol potential; we compare different transmission strategies and protocol mechanisms; and we report our results on the impact of each mechanism on system energy. We h...

Measuring Energy Efficiency in China’s Transport Sector

Energy efficiency is one of the key factors affecting energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. By focusing on China’s transport sector, this study comprehensively reviews and compares the energy efficiency performance of passenger vehicles, light-duty commercial vehicles, commercial road transport, commercial water transport, aviation transport and railway transport, and identifie...
