Built Environment: measuring Climate Change impact
One of the main reasons for global warming is the sustained increase of CO2 emissions, trapping heat and warming up the atmosphere. With more frequent storms, landslides or floodings, climate change will make buildings more vulnerable and reduce their lifespan. As energy plays a key role in the management of buildings, in this article, we will discuss the consequences of climate change and ...

Solar Energy for a Sustainable Future
Because the resources on earth are limited and these resources harm the ecological balance, we should prefer renewable energy sources. It is necessary to prefer sustainable energy sources such as solar energy in order to protect natural resources and reduce the harmful effects on the environment resulting from the consumption of resources. Fossil fuels have been widely used in recent years due to ...

Renewables boom in North Africa Still pending.
In North Africa, the renewables sector has great growth potential, but the market needs to be improved: rules, political stability and depowering the fossil sector. The Benban Solar Park in Egypt is the fifth largest in the world. A pharaonic project, so to speak, built about 40 km from the great Aswan Dam, a marvel of modern engineering. Located in the heart of Egypt's southern desert, the ...

Net-zero path 2050 and the role of energy storage
Summary Present climate pledges, even if fully achieved, would fall short to give the world a chance of limiting the global temperature rise to 1.5 °C. Therefore, the world needs to commit on a viable and actionable path to achieve Net-Zero by 2050. While renewables and energy storage are the backbone of the energy transition to achieve Net-Zero by 2050 in the power sector …, the ...

Making Your Energy Work for You
Alexander Graham Bell (the telephone) and Thomas Edison (electricity) were two of the greatest groundbreaking pioneers in history. Imagine if the two were alive today to witness the evolution of their thinking. While the chances are pretty good that Bell would have no idea what a smartphone was, Edison’s electrical transmission lines are, conversely, still a mainstay today. Acknowledging ...
