Embodied energy of Sliver® modules [PDF]
Sliver® solar cells, invented and developed at the ANU, allow a reduction in the consumption of silicon by a factor of 5 to 12 compared with state of the art conventional crystalline silicon modules, resulting in a decrease in the number of wafers that ...

An Endogenous Growth Model with Embodied Technical Change without Scale Effects
In this paper, we extend the Romer90 model by introducing an embodied technological change and by removing the scale effects. We show that this model can still generate steady state growth in which the embodied technical change has an positive and ...

Recontextualizing Telecouplings in Electricity-Driven Land Use Flows via Global Supply Chains
The global energy transition is expected to require three to twenty times more land areas than fossil fuel-based power generation, making the availability of suitable land for the global energy transition a key challenge.

Embodied Energy Policies to Reuse Existing Buildings
When dealing with the existing stock of buildings, energy strategies usually focus on the improvement of their performance by means of technical upgrading. However, taking architecture as a resource helps raising another question: to what extent the embodied energy in already built structures could be a key factor to develop sustainable strategies ...
