Comparing energy and comfort metrics for building benchmarking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Benchmarking energy use is increasingly mandated and tied to consequences such as fines for underperforming buildings. Yet, standard benchmarking methods and metrics may not adequately align with policymakers’ or building owners’ goals.

Life Cycle Assessment and Energy Balance of a Novel Polyhydroxyalkanoates Production Process with Mixed Microbial Cultures Fed on Pyrolytic Products of Wastewater Treatment Sludge

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
A “cradle-to-grave” life cycle assessment is performed to identify the environmental issues of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) produced through a hybrid thermochemical-biological process using anaerobically digested sewage sludge (ADSS) as feedstock.

Submodularity of energy related controllability metrics [PDF]

open access: yes53rd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, 2014
The quantification of controllability and observability has recently received new interest in the context of large, complex networks of dynamical systems. A fundamental but computationally difficult problem is the placement or selection of actuators and sensors that optimize real-valued controllability and observability metrics of the network.

Human well‐being and per capita energy use

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Increased wealth and per capita energy use have transformed lives and shaped societies, but energy poverty remains a global challenge. Previous research has shown positive relationships among metrics of health and happiness and economic indices such as ...

Thresholds of energy security metrics: their purpose and assessment techniques [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
The study discusses the issue of enhancing the validity of projections of energy sector development by properly accounting for the effect of available options on energy security. To this end, it is possible to use a single overall index that measures the

Evaluating energy justice metrics in early-stage science and technology research using the JUST-R metrics framework

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Embedding principles of energy justice throughout all aspects of clean energy technology research and development (R&D) can facilitate a more just energy transition; yet gaps remain in our understanding of how to best integrate energy justice from ...

THE ENERGY OF THE GAMMA METRIC IN THE MØLLER PRESCRIPTION [PDF]

open access: yesModern Physics Letters A, 2002
We obtain the energy distribution of the gamma metric using the energy–momentum complex of Møller. The result is the same as that obtained by Virbhadra in the Weinberg prescription.
