REDUCTION OF RESIDENTIAL CONSUMPTION OF ELECTRICITY THROUGH SIMPLE MONTHLY FEEDBACK [PDF]

Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1981
Feedback has been widely used in efforts to control the consumption of electricity. Previous efforts, however, have used forms of feedback that seem economically impractical. The present study examined the effects of a feasible program of monthly feedback.

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.

A Modified Energy Evaluation Tool for Residential Complexes in South Korea to Reflect Total Electricity Consumption

Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering, 2017
This study suggests a new method to evaluate the CO2 emissions from residential complexes in South Korea. The conventional method only reflects energy consumption for space heating, hot water, and lighting.

Chiral SURMOFs for Vibrational Circular Dichroism: Multiscale Modeling and Experimental Insights

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The use of solid‐state vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) for MOFs is still somewhat unexplored, and in this work, it is shown that chiral surface‐anchored MOFs (SURMOFs) grown on CaF2 provide an excellent platform for VCD. Experimental results are validated through multiscale modeling, showing strong agreement across multiple spectroscopic ...

How to Chemically Protect PFAS‐Free Membranes in Fuel Cells: Radical Quenching Poly(vinylphosphonic acid) Layer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrocarbon membranes are a greener alternative to PFSA in PEM fuel cells, but degrade rapidly from radical attack. We present a novel strategy using poly(vinylphosphonic acid) (PVPA) as a local radical scavenger. Incorporated as an interfacial barrier, PVPA enhances chemical stability and significantly extends membrane lifetime under accelerated ...

Energy Management through Cost Forecasting for Residential Buildings in New Zealand [PDF]

, 2019
Over the last two decades, the residential building sector has been one of the largest energy consumption sectors in New Zealand. The relationship between that sector and household energy consumption should be carefully studied in order to optimize the ...

Dynamics of Residential Electricity Consumption in Nigeria

, 2018
The continuous residential electricity supply problems in Nigeria are attributable to the inability of energy planners to accurately forecast the effect of the various socio-economic and physical factors that influence residential electricity consumption across the country.
