Residential emissions reductions through variable timing of electricity consumption [PDF]

Applied Energy, 2015
Abstract A real-time electricity emissions estimating tool, the Locational Marginal Price Emissions Estimation Method (LEEM), is assessed for its ability to reduce emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ), nitrogen oxides (NO x ), global warming potential measured as carbon dioxide equivalent (CO 2 e), mercury (Hg), and lead (Pb) on a residential scale.
