This data-file contains our numbers and analysis into the energy economics of phase change materials: an emerging class of materials, which can store and release heat by changing from solid…
…environments that wish to supplement grid power with self-generation, at small scales, where existing gas turbines may not be as efficient, and especially where waste heat can be used. For…
…of electricity use (kWh/ton), amine regeneration energy (GJ/ton), different fuel types, combustion efficiencies and waste heat recapture ratios (chart below). We think energy penalties can range from 15-70%. This is…
…cost-effective options are smart themostats and air sealing. Ballpark numbers, further details and implications are explored in the data-file. This adds to our recent work on the decarbonization of heat….
…of SOFCs could eventually become very exciting for low-carbon heat and power (model here). But our conclusion from the latest patents is that the technology is not yet on the…
This data-file aims to capture the energy consumption, efficiency and CO2 intensity of different heating technologies in home-cooking: gas, electric, induction, microwaves, steam-cookers and food-processors. $299.00 – Purchase Checkout Added to cart…
…decarbonization roadmaps for China, Europe and broader industrial heat, as spelled out on pages 2-4. But global LNG supplies are currently only set to rise at half of this rate,…
…which cover the CO2 embedded in the heat and electricity purchased by the company. Finally, it adds Scope 3 emissions, which covers all the CO2 indirectly emitted through the use…
This data-file aims to provide a simple model for how generally well-covered grids can fail catastrophically during a heatwave. Power generation is sensitive to heatwaves because an increase in temperature…
This data-file approximates the costs of absorption chillers, which perform the thermodynamic alchemy of converting waste heat (e.g., from a CHP turbine) into coldness. Today the market is small, around…
