This study examines the effects of renewable and non-renewable energy consumption on environmental sustainability. We employed the fixed-effects regression model with Driscoll–Kraay robust standard errors for a global panel of 173 countries over the 1996–2020 period and several results are revealed. First renewable energy consumption ...
The global shift from a fossil fuel-based to an electrical-based society is commonly viewed as an ecological improvement. However, the electrical power industry is a major source of carbon dioxide emissions, and incorporating renewable energy can still negatively impact the environment. Despite rising research in renewable energy, the …

From the environmental perspective, wooden structures are favorable insulators that are suitable for carbon fixation and wooden-related products are considered the most sustainable material. Research has indicated that wooden structures have superior energy-saving performance compared to reinforced concrete (RC) structures. In this …
Comparison of electricity storage options using levelized cost of storage (LCOS) method Appl Energy, 183 ( 2016 ), pp. 1594 - 1606, 10.1016/j.apenergy.2016.08.165 View PDF View article View in Scopus Google Scholar
We estimate the electrical energy return on energy invested ratio of CCS projects, accounting for their operational and infrastructural energy penalties, to range between 6.6:1 and 21.3:1 for 90% ...
Although interest in and the importance of green building certification have increased, it is difficult to determine how much less energy the buildings actually consume after obtaining sustainability related certification, such as LEED in the USA, and G-SEED in Korea. Focusing on building energy evaluation, we compared and analyzed the energy …
7,645 cold stores (GCCA, 2018). Cold storage is an energy-intensive sector, it consumes an. average of 25 kWh of electricity and 9,200 Btu of natural gas per squa re foot per year (CSCS, 2018 ...
We see that global energy consumption has increased nearly every year for more than half a century. The exceptions to this are in the early 1980s, and 2009 following the financial crisis. Global energy consumption continues to grow, but it does seem to be slowing — averaging around 1% to 2% per year.
