This is the subject of this article: how public administrations can implement energy-saving plans and reduce their energy consumption. If you’re interested, keep on reading! ...
The article discussed about these three issues from energy meter environment, energy meter certification, and energy meter calibration. 1. energy meter environmentWhen charging the charging pile, there is inevitably heat loss, and as the charging speed increases, the current and voltage will also increase ...
Aside from the environmental advantages of having a more energy-efficient residence, it also means cheaper energy costs – and who would refuse that? ...
The drive is on to improve the sustainability performance of data centers with tools such as IIoT platforms, energy monitoring and management, and innovative cooling technologies. However efficient a data center becomes, the carbon footprint of the electricity itself will be the main factor in its environmental performance. The exact amount of electricity consumed in data centers around the ...
Each certification has its own particularities, although they all share energy as a common factor. ...
The company's first large-scale facility will feature 30 to 50 MW of CSP capacity and long duration energy storage capacity, Wood said. Mining loads typically favour 10 to 12 hours of energy storage, Wood noted. ...

Start with the basics. Do you pursue energy efficiency or renewable energy or both? And then, do you choose to make actual physical changes, such as installing combined heat and power systems or solar panels, or do you buy from among the more virtual products such as energy efficiency certificates or renewable ...
The new Regulation for Buildings Energy Performance (KENAK) has been recently adopted within national legislation and expected to comprise an integral part of all future developments in the building sector in Greece. The regulation will undoubtedly significantly affect the construction of new buildings through the introduction of energy performance standards. ...
Neighboring Connecticut, for example, has become the king of monetizing energy savings through its innovative energy efficiency certificates. The certificates represent energy savings (negawatts) businesses achieve when they install efficient technologies. Each megawatt-hour of savings equates to one ...
And Herbert Hoover might be promising a solar panel on every roof, rather than a chicken in every pot – and the pot would sit on a smart-metered stove, powered by a plug-in hybrid, eligible for renewable energy certificates. Today, green credentials count. Hardly a day goes by without a mayor, governor or legislator claiming some sort of first, best or highest ...
