Net Zero Energy Building Predicted and Unintended Consequences

Net Zero Energy Building Predicted and Unintended Consequences

What do we mean by net zero energy? Zero operating energy? Zero energy costs? Zero emissions? There is no one answer: approaches to net zero building vary widely across the globe and are influenced by different environmental and cultural contexts. Net Zero Energy Building: Predicted and Unintended Consequences presents a comprehensive overview of variations in 'net zero' building practices. Drawing on examples from countries such as the United States United Kingdom Germany Japan Hong Kong and China Ming Hu examines diverse approaches to net zero and reveals their intended and unintended consequences. Existing approaches often focus on operating energy: how to make buildings more efficient by reducing the energy consumed by climate control lighting and appliances. Hu goes beyond this by analyzing overall energy consumption and environmental impact across the entire life cycle of a building—ranging from the manufacture of building materials to transportation renovation and demolition. Is net zero building still achievable once we look at these factors? With clear implications for future practice this is key reading for professionals in building design architecture and construction as well as students on sustainable and green architecture courses. | Net Zero Energy Building Predicted and Unintended Consequences

Powertrain Systems for Net-Zero Transport

Powertrain Systems for Net-Zero Transport

The transport sector continues to shift towards alternative powertrains particularly with the UK Government’s announcement to end the sale of petrol and diesel passenger cars by 2030 and increasing support for alternatives. Despite this announcement the internal combustion continues to play a significant role both in the passenger car market through the use of hybrids and sustainable low carbon fuels as well as a key role in other sectors such as heavy-duty vehicles and off-highway applications across the globe. Building on the industry-leading IC Engines conference the 2021 Powertrain Systems for Net-Zero Transport conference (7-8 December 2021 London UK) focussed on the internal combustion engine’s role in Net-Zero transport as well as covered developments in the wide range of propulsion systems available (electric fuel cell sustainable fuels etc) and their associated powertrains. To achieve the net-zero transport across the globe the life-cycle analysis of future powertrain and energy was also discussed. Powertrain Systems for Net-Zero Transport provided a forum for engine fuels e-machine fuel cell and powertrain experts to look closely at developments in powertrain technology required to meet the demands of the net-zero future and global competition in all sectors of the road transportation off-highway and stationary power industries.

Net-Zero and Positive Energy Communities Best Practice Guidance Based on the ZERO-PLUS Project Experience

Net-Zero and Positive Energy Communities Best Practice Guidance Based on the ZERO-PLUS Project Experience

This book presents a methodology for the design construction monitoring optimization and post-occupancy evaluation of net-zero and positive-energy communities based on the experiences gained in the EU Horizon 2020 ZERO-PLUS project. It describes the steps tools and methods developed during the project providing practical information for the energy and construction sector that will be of interest to students engineers architects developers and professionals working around high performance architecture and sustainable communities. Through the ZERO-PLUS project a consortium of 32 partners from eight countries including academic institutions technology providers architects and construction companies designed four communities covering completely different geo-climatic regions construction practices and cultural backgrounds in Cyprus Italy France and the UK. The communities were designed optimized constructed monitored handed over to tenants post-occupancy evaluated and troubleshooted through a system of continuous collaboration and data acquisition. This book presents these case studies and shows how the project targets of reducing electricity consumption below 20 kWh/m2/y increasing electricity production from Renewable Energy Systems to over 50 kWh/m2/y and at cheaper costs when compared to current zero-energy buildings were reached and surpassed. These cases demonstrate that a holistic and interactive approach to design and construction can bring communities a high standard of sustainability. The key features of the book include: Practical guidance drawn from the interdisciplinary international and remote cooperation between experts from academia and industry across the construction sector A survey of the state-of-the-art on net-zero and positive-energy communities including the experience and the lessons learned from previous projects and from the ZERO-PLUS project Descriptions of novel emerging renewable energy technologies integrated into real case study communities to achieve the energy generation target of the communities A comprehensive set of approaches tools guidelines best practices challenges and lessons learned from the five-year ZERO-PLUS project and the completion of four residential case studies to inform the reader of how to achieve affordable net-zero energy communities Four typologies of residential communities located in different climatic conditions are presented touching on the critical aspects of the design construction monitoring and occupancy phase A discussion of future trends for developing communities that are more liveable accessible and sustainable and which can comply with new energy policies in a way that is affordable for the owners and residents. | Net-Zero and Positive Energy Communities Best Practice Guidance Based on the ZERO-PLUS Project Experience

The Path to Net Zero for the Fashion Industry Five Strategies for Decarbonisation

The Path to Net Zero for the Fashion Industry Five Strategies for Decarbonisation

This book uses a quantitative science-based approach to explain where the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions emitted by the fashion industry are generated and it explores what strategies can be deployed to achieve Net Zero by 2050. With GHG emissions currently predicted to triple by the middle of the century the fashion industry is far off course to reach Net Zero as set out in the Paris Agreement. With misinformation and greenwashing representing an ever-growing barrier to potential solutions the book aims to demystify the source of GHG emissions from the industry breaking down in detail their origin while identifying the steps that can be taken when designing and sourcing new products. Detailing the market drivers and trends in fashion consumption it argues that change should be guided by science-based quantitative principles. Accessibly written with key insights at the end of each chapter this book will enable the reader to understand the tactics to tackle decarbonisation and ultimately outline five main strategies that can be deployed by the fashion and textile industries to align with the Paris Agreement. This book serves as a practical guide for designers buyers and the fashion industry in general to develop and understand approaches and strategies to reduce energy consumption and the resulting GHG emissions to reach Net Zero. | The Path to Net Zero for the Fashion Industry Five Strategies for Decarbonisation
