This study investigates the dynamic impact of green energy investment and consumption on carbon emissions in China from 1995 to 2020. It employed Bootstrap Autoregressive Distributed Lag method examine short long-run relationship. The findings indicate that renewable decrease emissions, whereas non-renewable economic growth increase shorter longer periods. long-term reduction may imply transiti...

Directive 2009/28/CE establishes, as obligatory objective, a share of renewable energies on energetic consumption of 20%, in European Union, in 2020 However, such European normative gives freedom to member states in the selection of the renewable promotion mechanism that allows them to obtain that objective. In this paper, we analyze the main characteristics of the promotion mechanisms of renew...

The variable and intermittent nature of many renewable energy sources makes integrating them into the electric grid challenging and limits their penetration. The current grid requires expensive, largescale energy storage and peaker plants to match such supplies to conventional loads. We present an alternative solution, in which supply-following loads adjust their power consumption to match the ...

Data centres are powerful and power-hungry facilities which aim at hosting ICT services. The current trend is to, on the one hand, try to reduce the overall consumption of a data centre, and on the other hand to prioritize the utilization of renewable energies over brown energies. Renewable energies tend to be very variable in time (e.g. solar energy), and thus renewable energy aware algorithms...

Increasing the usage of renewable energy and electromobility are high priority goals for several countries and organisations. Energy from renewable energy sources, like wind and solar, have disadvantages of being highly variable and volatile. Furthermore, the occurrence of renewable energy and energy demand is asynchronous. This aggravates any successful integration of renewable energy sources ...

Future sustainable energy systems will need efficient, clean, low-cost, renewable energy sources, as well as market structures that motivate sustainable behaviors on the part of households and businesses. “Smart grid” components can help consumers manage their consumption only if pricing policies are in place that motivate consumers to install and use these new tools in ways that maximize utili...

Energy consumption in the buildings is responsible for 26% of Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions where cooling typically accounts for over 50% of the total building energy use. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential for reducing the cooling systems’ environmental footprint with applications of alternative renewable energy source. Three types of cooling systems, water cooled, a...

The problem of climate change is increasingly global and results in environmental damage due to the use fossil energy human activities. An increasing population will make consumption increase can things worse. Therefore, it necessary replace old with alternative that more environmentally friendly makes productivity effective efficient. Renewable pointed out as an source process sustainable beca...
