Sentences with phrase «overall energy demand»

After decades of growth, energy - related CO2 emissions are expected to plateau around 2030, despite a steady rise in overall energy demand.

The government agency said that the country's coal consumption also fell by 2.9 percent, or 118 million tons, in 2014 from the 2013 level, despite a growing overall energy demand.

That support hit a roadblock a year ago when new conservative prime minister Tony Abbott ordered a review of the country's target for clean energy use by 2020, which ultimately recommended slashing it by a third, in line with falling overall energy demand.

Energy efficiency is one way to reduce emissions, by reducing overall energy demand, but that does not imply that all energy use must be cut.

At an energy system level, how can EV charging be integrated with overall energy demand and supply to ensure a secure and balanced system?

Each new generation of tablet or smartphone tends to be more capable than the ones before, with the latest features upping overall energy demands.

Passive House is a recognized international standard for a building's energy efficiency to reduce heating and cooling requirements by up to 90 percent and overall energy demand by up to 75 percent compared to conventional buildings, while also providing the most comfortable and healthy interior environment.

That dragged overall energy demand growth down to 3.9 % — the lowest level China's seen in more than a decade.

Carbon Tracker conducted a wholesale review of energy scenario assumptions in Lost in Transition and found that the low - carbon transition could be faster - than - expected due to economic shifts in key growth regions such as China and India, and even lower overall energy demand due to lower economic growth, as per the OECD's latest long - term forecast.

The future looks bright for electricity, which is set to grow at twice the rate of overall energy demand to 2040.

So in a world where there is little to no agreement to cut overall energy demand, no capacity to supply an extra 500 Mtoe Non-Carbon energy per year, and where Fossil Fuel energy use is forecast to rise 150 % to 19,000 Mtoe in 2050 what kind of a climate would one likely expect then?

The technology currently available for installing distributed renewable energy in developing countries can not yet raise all of the world's poorest to the levels of per capita energy consumption previously reached in the west, but developed countries are already reducing overall energy demand and increasing energy efficiency, rendering historical patterns of energy usage the wrong benchmark for global standards in any case.

If climate policy exceeds the pathway prescribed by NDCs, and overall energy demand is lower, cost reductions in solar PV and EVs can help limit global warming to between 2.1 °C (50 % probability) and 2.3 °C (66 % probability).

Even a small increase in air temperature pushes up overall energy demand, and about 25 % of our energy bills are for only 40 hours per year when the grid is most heavily used.

But since oil and natural gas account for less than 25 % of Chinese energy supply combined, overall energy demand fell sharply on the back of coal and power.
