Eng, Tseng Lau. "Quantification of carbon emissions and savings in smart grids." Thesis, Brunel University, 2016. http://bura.brunel.ac.uk/handle/2438/12569.
Full textAbstract:
In this research, carbon emissions and carbon savings in the smart grid are modelled and quantified. Carbon emissions are defined as the product of the activity (energy) and the corresponding carbon factor. The carbon savings are estimated as the difference between the conventional and improved energy usage multiplied by the corresponding carbon factor. An adaptive seasonal model based on the hyperbolic tangent function (HTF) is developed to define seasonal and daily trends of electricity demand and the resultant carbon emissions. A stochastic model describing profiles of energy usage and carbon emissions for groups of consumers is developed. The flexibility of the HTF for modelling cycles of energy consumption is demonstrated and discussed with several case studies. The analytical description to determine electricity grid carbon intensity in the UK is derived, using the available fuel mix data from the Elexon portal. The uncertain realisation of energy data is forecasted and assimilated using the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF). The numerical optimisation of carbon emissions and savings in the smart grid is further performed using the ensemble-based Closed-loop Production Optimisation Scheme (EnOpt). The EnOpt involves the optimisation of fuel costs and carbon emissions (maximisation of carbon savings) in the smart grid subject to the operational control constraints. The software codes for the based on the application of EnKF and EnOpt are developed, and the optimisation of energy, cost and emissions is performed. The numerical simulation shows the ability of EnKF in forecasting and assimilating the energy data, and the robustness of the EnOpt in optimising costs and carbon savings. The proposed approach addresses the complexity and diversity of the power grid and may be implemented at the level of the transmission operator in collaboration with the operational wholesale electricity market and distribution network operators. The final stage of work includes the quantification of carbon emissions and savings in demand response (DR) programmes. DR programmes such as Short Term Operating Reserve (STOR), Triad, Fast Reserve, Frequency Control by Demand Management (FCDM) and smart meter roll-out are included, with various types of smart interventions. The DR programmes are modelled with appropriate configurations and assumptions in power plants used in the energy industry. This enables the comparison of emissions between the business-as-usual (BAU) and the smart solutions applied, thus deriving the carbon savings. Several case studies involving the modelling and analysing DR programmes are successfully performed. Thus, the thesis represents novel analytical and numerical techniques applied in the fast-growing UK market of smart energy solutions.

Full textAbstract:
Buildings are a significant energy consumer and are responsible for an increasingly large percent of worldwide greenhouse gas emissions, currently between 30 and 40 percent. Energy efficiency presents unique opportunities for building owners to reduce their environmental footprint and add value through cost savings, tax deductions, and increased market value. An analysis of 183 samples of efficiency measures in seven technology categories found that 74% of efficiency investments had a positive net present value. Building automation system and chiller plant improvements had the highest mean energy and carbon dioxide savings per square foot. Additionally, building automation systems had, on average the highest return on investment, approximately $800 above the cost of implementation per one thousand square feet. Only building envelope modifications had a negative mean return on investment. Building automation system upgrades avoided an average of 350 pounds of CO2e for every dollar spent, reducing a building’s total carbon footprint by as much as 28%. The results suggest that a significant opportunity for cost, energy, and emission savings is available across all technology categories.

Full textAbstract:
This research answers the question: what is the potential of community renewable energy projects to reduce carbon emissions in the United Kingdom (UK)? This research provides evidence of the benefits of community energy projects in the UK that have been identified as lacking in a recent report produced for the Department of Energy and Climate Change. The work is based on analysis of primary data collected from 13 community energy projects that were active in 2011 in England and Wales. The 13 projects were based around energy generation and cover three types of technology: photovoltaic (PV), wind turbine and hydro power. A qualitative assessment is carried out of interviews conducted with representatives of the community energy projects to examine why certain actions are taken during the development and delivery of the projects. Life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology is applied to these case studies to calculate their carbon impact in three areas: directly through installation of the project; indirectly through use of the income stream created by the project; and indirectly due to behaviour change in the community caused by increased knowledge and/or acceptance of energy generation and climate change issues. The LCA results are then used to model the potential impact of the community energy projects that have already been installed in the UK. The results of the work suggest that community energy projects do generally reduce carbon emissions in the UK. However use of the income stream typically reduces the potential for the community energy project to reduce carbon emissions. Behaviour change in households to install additional energy generation can increase the potential for the community energy project to reduce carbon emissions. The impact, both positive and negative that government policy has had on the sector is significant despite the perceived independent nature of the sector.

Each Firefighter has a "node" or "unit" attached to them which contains temperature, oxygen, and carbon-monoxide sensors, and a transceiver. Each node constantly transmits data collected by the sensors to a central "base station." The base station consists of a laptop which is monitored by the Fire Chief at a safe distance from the scene, and it displays gas levels. The base station monitors the sensor readings, and sets off an alarm locally and also at the node if a reading has reached a predetermined critical value.

Full textAbstract:
Conserving energy in large structural buildings has become very important in today's economy. A number of buildings today are constructed with sandwich wall panels. Steel connections are most commonly used in these panels. The problem with steel is that it has a tendency to reduce the thermal resistance of the insulation. This project considers glass fiber reinforcing polymers (GFRP) and carbon fiber reinforcing polymers (CFRP) as an alternate material to steel. An experimental sandwich wall panel was constructed and subjected to freezing temperatures. The results of the experimental program were compared to a theoretical model using the ANSYS computer program. The model was verified using current analytical methods that determine the heat flux of a sandwich wall panel. The methods investigated include the parallel path, zone, parallel flow, and isothermal planes methods. The results suggest that the GFRP connectors perform slightly better than the steel and CFRP connectors.ND EPSCoR

This study takes the BRICS panel data, including Brazil, Russian, India, China and South Africa, to exam the influence of adjusted savings: carbon dioxide damage from manufacturing, transport miles by roads railways and air and carbon dioxide emissions from gaseous fuel consumption, from 1990 to 2011. The study methods are adopted Qnet back-propagation neural network, fixed effects model and random effects model and threshold auto-regressive model. Then, the results show that both manufacturing and transport miles are positively related with adjusted savings: carbon dioxide damage. These evidences can connect with that new industrialized countries are eager to chase developed countries, so the carbon dioxide emissions they have produced increase by many times. Additionally, behind the flourish progress of these new industrialized countries, they need reliable transport systems to support, which also results in tremendous carbon dioxide emissions. On the other way, as for gaseous fuel consumption, there were many academic discussions, approved that natural gas is one of the most cleanest energy resources. This study confirmed the fact again with negatively correlation between adjusted savings: carbon dioxide damage and carbon dioxide emissions from gaseous fuel consumption.

Full textAbstract:
The residential building sector plays an important role in combating climate change in Canada. Many energy efficiency solutions along with new building energy standards have been implemented to improve building energy performance. However, their effects on energy saving and GHG emissions reduction vary due to the complexity of the building systems and the variability of their operational conditions. This work quantifies such variability in both energy efficiency devices and building energy standards implementation, respectively.
The first study in this dissertation assesses the energy savings from sensible heat recovery in a residential apartment suite in various locations across Canada. A series of detailed building energy performance models are developed in TRNSYS. The HVAC system’s annual energy consumption is simulated and the results are compared with and without HRV for each climate zone. The results show the heating energy savings of employing the HRV vary from 17 to 34% depending on the winter climatic conditions; while, the building cooling energy use can be increased due to the undesired thermal recovery occurring in the HRV during the cooling season.
The second study investigates the free cooling potential of outside air in various Canadian cities. A series of thermal models developed using BEopt 2.8 for a hypothetical single-family house with various window-to-wall ratios and building aspect ratios simulates hourly building cooling load profiles. The free cooling potential is analyzed by comparing the maximum available and the actual usable free cooling for various building features and different climates. The results indicate that, although free cooling is widely available in most areas of Canada during the summer and shoulder seasons, only 17-42% of such free cooling is usable without the use of thermal storage.
The last study examines the effects of two building energy standards - the BC Step Code and the Passive House criteria - on reductions in residential household space heating GHG emissions under different enforcement scenarios. The space heating energy and the GHG emissions are estimated using the forecast growth of single detached households for the period from 2020 to 2032. The results show that the space heating GHG emissions can be reduced by 77% and 89%, respectively if the BC Step Code or the Passive House criteria is implemented in Canada. It is also found the impacts of energy code on GHG emission mitigation are less significant in regions where the carbon intensity of the dominant heating fuels is low.Graduate

The aim of the study is to find out feasible strategies for cost-saving and carbon reducing of pavement rehabilitation (milling and overlay) and estimate the potential of CO2 reduction of pavement rehabilitation strategies by lifecycle cost inventory and CO2 emission inventory. According to literature review, expert interview, and model derivation, it was found that the most important factors for cost saving and CO2 reduction are lower expense of natural material and longer service life of each milling and overlay. Alternatives evaluated in this study are designed based on change of material (by reclaimed asphalt mixture and stone matrix asphalt mixture, improve construction quality (providing lower initial roughness), and thicker dense grade layer of the pavement structure. The length of the analysis period in this study is 40 years of operation and maintenance of pavement that set based on the characteristic of the National Freeway in Taiwan. The software of AASHTO (American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials) latest design guide, MEPDG (Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide) is used to predict the length of service life that every milling and overlay provides of each alternative. All factors that used in the simulation, like amount of daily truck traffic, basic structure, and climate are set as close as possible to the real situation in Taiwan. The analysis shows that lower initial IRI (International Roughness Index) leads to the least CO2 emission and rehabilitation cost. Improving the construction quality provides the best performance for financial and environmental sustainability. Secondly, using reclaimed asphalt mixture also shows good performance in the two phases. Thicker dense grade layer does not benefit to neither economical nor environmental phases. Using SMA mixture as replacement of part of dense grade layer has benefits on cost saving, but does not make significant contribution to CO2 reduction. For the short term, improving construction quality is what Taiwanese highway agencies should do first to save maintenance cost and reduce CO2 emission. Although Taiwanese government does not levy a tax on CO2 emission so far, with the trend of CO2 reduction across the world, it is possible that all of the emission must pay for carbon rights. Since some of the alternatives evaluated in this study shows good performance on reducing CO2 emission, like lower initial IRI and use reclaimed asphalt mixture, those methods should be applied to exchange more carbon rights for road rehabilitation. Those alternatives also provide good potential on CO2 reduction. For example, it is suggest that the authority must reduce 7.92 million tons of CO2 every year to meet the national emission reduction targets. According to the inventory in this study, if the initial IRI of highway pavement has been lower to 100 in./mi. (1.57 m/km), the amount of CO2 emission would decease 10,831 tons, about 1.37% of the reduction target (7.92 million tons). Improving the construction quality is undoubtedly the most urgent task for Taiwanese road agencies.

In order to make the small users save air conditioning energy more effectively, this paper proposed a design of controlling energy-saving of air-conditioning shedding. This design is based on ”PMV fuzzy controller” and “PMV Predictive Fuzzy Controller” method, and latter two used Predicted Mean Vote(PMV) as comfort level index of interior space environment which is established by ASHRAE Standard 55. To demonstrate the results of carbon reduction and efficiency, Small-scale Clean Development Mechanism(CDM) is used to present monitoring plan and design a specific client''s project plan and control strategy. Owing to regional small and medium-sized business users, the air-conditioning load system is consisted of more than one component. It’s difficult to achieve the prospective results by adjusting air conditioning temperature individually to control the restriction of power consumption degree. Therefore, ”PMV fuzzy controller” method. Is used to adjust comfort and shedding, which is according to required energy and the environment , and "PMV prediction fuzzy controller" method is used to stabilize the environment if it’s needed. It can keep power consumption degree lower than objective value control indoor environment in an ideal and comfort range to achieve the effectiveness of carbon reduction.

In recent years, excessive and inappropriate use of energy caused a lot of environmental issues, and it makes everyone to increase attention to issues of environmental protection. Although governments have adopted various remedial measures to environmental problems, it still cannot completely suppress the continuing deterioration of the environment. We should understand that the environmental issues should not only control by government units, but should be managed through a variety of energy education to make people consistent with the behavior of energy saving and carbon reduction in life. According to the literature of this study, it surveys the energy attitudes, personal behavior will of energy saving and reduce carbon, and other internal and external factors of Taiwanese college students. It uses SPSS statistical software to understand the basic information of the sample composition. It verifies the accuracy of recovery and accuracy of the questionnaire by reliability and validity analysis. We understand the answer in the variable conditions and the correlation between variables variable by sample correlation analysis. Finally we verify the causal relationship between variables through path analysis. Based on the results, it shows that the energy attitude will effect the behavior of energy saving and carbon reduction as a important factor. This study suggests that the government and energy education units should not only focus on the dissemination of knowledge, but also develop the correct attitude of energy. Organized activities can make people are deeply rooted in the energy-saving concept by activities and action. In addition, this study shows that contextual factors effect behavior of energy saving and carbon reduction directly. On price factor, the study suggests the government should focus on the development of green products and provide more competitive green products. Government also should provide more convenient mass construction to make people more convenient, and help people to adopt the environmental protection acts. Finally, this study suggests energy education should also attach importance of stakeholders around the individuals, and make the concept of energy saving and carbon reduction to interlock with everyone.

To lessen the threats of global climate change, governments have to set and enforce robust polices to save energy and reduce greenhouse gases. But will the public support these policies? And what cognitive factors will affect the public''s support? To answer these two questions, this study surveyed a convenience sample consisted of 171 Taichung citizens and 132 Kaohsiung citizens. The survey questionnaire asked questions for 2 variables about the threats of climate change and 5 variables about carbon reducing policies. The variables were vulnerability, severity, personal benefit, social benefit, response efficacy, self-efficacy, and response cost. All these were cognitive variables based on Rogers'' (1983) protection motivation theory. The latter 5 variables were assessed for each of the 3 policies mentioned in the questionnaire. The policies were (a) rebate on electric bills for energy saving; (b) energy tax; and (c) ordering public places to keep temperatures above 26 degrees Celsius in summer. Results showed that though respondents moderately supported energy taxation policy, this policy was the least welcomed. Further, personal benefit, social benefit and self-efficacy had significant effects on all three policies. In contrast, perceived vulnerability to climate threats and response cost (policy-induced personal cost) had no effect on any of the policies. Implications of these findings are discussed.

Taiwan is on the list of countries shortage of renewable water resource based on Food and Agriculture Organization, United Nations, 2005. Concerned with this situation, the issue related to water saving should be highly emphasized in Taiwan. This research is to be executed in the practicability of creating Carbon Credits System, on Water Saving in Taiwan’s Building. The previous research has proposed the evaluation model of CO2 emission for saving water strategy. It proposed a CO2 emission estimation model for water consumption. Through investigation of the domestic water usage in people’s livelihood, we can calculate water saving potential. The former is based on the structure of water consumption, which can be schematically understood and conclude water saving strategy. To extend CO2 emission issue and connect to the universal issue of Carbon Trading, the target of this research is to find out the practical use of CO2 emission reduction on buildings water saving policy. This research will find the way on how carbon credit system works on between buildings water saving and related components. The practical use and policy about carbon credit system will be discussed in the research. Furthermore, this research will raise the willingness of promoting water saving, and which will provide opportunity for leading Taiwan into a water saving society

Decreasing the use of petroleum and coal are important environmental issues in reduction of CO2 emissions and consumption of fossil fuels. This study develops two related technologies, water emulsified fuel and carbon containing fly ashes. The aims of this study are as follows: First, this study uses wastewater and water to make the emulsified oil to evaluate energy efficiencies and flue gase pollutant emissions of industrial boilers. Second, this study applies bio-catalyst (NOE-7F) in the thermal treatment of waste-tire combustion ashes. The mechanism and efficiency of reducing the carbon content, after addition of the bio-catalyst are discussed. The results of the first part of reserch are as follows: better emulsion stability is found in wastewater emulsified oil as compared to water emulsified oil. Moreover, water/oil droplets are relatively uniform and smaller in wastewater emulsified fuel, and thus provide better combustion efficiency in boilers than heavy oil fuels, providing an energy saving of about 13%, as well as facilitating safe disposal of industrial wastewater. Furthermore, the wastewater emulsified oil fuel results in significant reductions in CO2 (13%), CO (84%), NOx (17%), particulate matter (36%), SO2 (13%), and total-PAHs (36%), and total-BaPeq (47%), as compared to heavy oil fuel. Considering the annual fuel consumption of 15 Mm3 in Taiwan with the fuel cost (NT $10,000 per m3), the potential overall fuel saving of such an approach is NT $15 billion. The results of the second part of reserch are as follows: The color of raw fly ashes was dark black and thermal treatment with NOE-7F made this change to white. The use of NOE-7F could improve the combustion efficiency of carbon content during thermal treatment. After thermal treatment of fly ashes by adding 10% NOE-7F, the carbon contents reduced by 37.6% (E10) and IHC increased by 45.7%. Moreover, with the significant carbon reduction due to adding NOE-7F, the compressive strength of mixture concrete of the fly ashes increased by 7%. Using NOE-7F may thus reduce the amount of fly ashes in landfill and the related decrease treatment costs. The results indicate that NOE-7F has a catalytic effect on combustion and enhances the energy released. Adding NOE-7F in the co-combustion of waste tires and coal can be further investigated in commercial boiler for energy saving and pollution reduction, and thus NOE-7F may play an important role in coal power plant for energy saving in the future.

In this study, questionnaires were utilized to investigate the differences in residents’ knowledge, attitude and behavior in energy saving and carbon reduction among the low-carbon communities and others in Chia-Yi County. Furthermore, this study analyzed residents’ needs and sources of energy saving and carbon reduction information as a reference for governments to promote low-carbon communities. The research instrument applied in this study was the “Residents’ knowledge, attitude and behavior differences among Low-Carbon and Non-Low-Carbon communities.” Random sampling was conducted in this study, which 850 questionnaires were sent and 838 effective samples were collected (421 from low carbon communities, 417 from other communities.) All the acquired data were processed by SPSS software through descriptive statistics, t-test, one way ANOVA, Pearson product moment correlation and Scheffé method. According to the results, variables such as gender, age, education, and job were insignificant to residents’ knowledge, attitude and behavior in energy saving and carbon reduction, while variables such as identity and experience showed significant difference. On the identity aspect, being a core member or not did not affect residents energy literacy in the low-carbon community. In contrast, the differences were significant between residents in the low-carbon and non-low-carbon communities. On the experience aspect, residents that had related experience performed better than those inexperienced ones. On the correlation aspect, knowledge, attitude and behavior were highly correlated. Moreover, information of energy saving and carbon reduction were from spread via radio stations, word of mouth and broadcasts on the recycling trucks. Publics’ needs on energy saving and carbon reduction were primarily on green transportation grants, next were water saving and lightening equipments. The results of this study could be seen as references for Chia-Yi County government to promote low-carbon community.

In the "Earth Day" of 2008, the Ministry of Education announced the start-up of "Green University" plan. This will call for more universities to integrate energy-saving carbon-reduction concepts into their school development, curriculum planning, and to reach a goal for sustainable campus. The categories of low carbon campus include the life and environment, green building and consumption of energy and resources. The basic consideration is to modify the infrastructure of existed campus into a sustainable, perspective and environmentally friendly future campus. There are two parts in this study. First, a questionnaire survey was carried out for low-carbon campus to investigate the awareness and satisfaction of students, faculties and staffs for cognitive feelings and self-executing behavior in energy saving. The results of statistical analysis revealed the "half to most consistent", i.e. the effectiveness of low carbon campus practice can be classified as "high cognitive and high satisfaction". Nevertheless, the "Campus propaganda activities" is not satisfied for students and "transportation and commuter" are not satisfied for the students and staffs, too. The problems can be contributed to the poor public transportation to depend on cars and motorcycles which are highly energy-consumption. Second, the investigation of carbon footprint is carried, majorly on electricity power consumption. There are many facilities, such as demand monitoring system, were built to control the consumption. According the general survey of electricity in 2008 academic year on school campus, all units can be expected to assess the energy saving up to 5%~10%. Also, the greenhouse gas emissions of CO2 as Category 2 emissions from stationary sources is the major sources caused by purchased electricity. Therefore, reduction of electricity consumption will be the future goal to cut-down greenhouse gas emissions. Overall, Da-Yeh University has done the implementation of low-carbon campus and reached the effectiveness above the general level. Finally, the quality of the campus environment and low carbon campus can be developed through continuous review and revision to improve it.

“Energy Saving and Carbon Deduction” is not only the most significant topic at present, but also the worldwide issue we are confronting. Under the influences of the rapid climatic changes, the global warming, on our earth, we cannot overlook the unusual damages and the fatal destructions caused by the extreme climate. How to maintain the sustainability of our earth is the responsibility of each citizen. The fundamental solutions to such global crises should be started from out “education.” Through the schooling education, the severity of the global warming and the importance of “energy saving and carbon deduction” can be deeply rooted in students’ hearts. The approach of AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) in my research is applied to constructing the hierarchy of how to promote the education of “Energy Saving and Carbon Deduction” in elementary school. Through the AHP method, relative weight values will be identified between criteria and the Weight System will be thus constructed as the reference of the educational programming authorities concerned. Moreover, the education of “Energy Saving and Carbon Deduction” can be easily implemented and integrated in our teaching lessons.

Since industrial revolution, the environment has been exploited and people use too many modern materials and equipments that lead to global climate and ecological imbalance. Carbon dioxide emissions exceed the capacity of the environment. Those causes ozone hole, global warming, severe weather, etc. Although Taiwan has small land and only 0.4% of global population, the capita carbon dioxide emissions are as high as 11.53 tonnes, about three times of the world's average. Base on this, our country should put more effort in carbon reduction. Taiwan recently promotes the concept of energy saving and carbon reduction. Government also invests huge human resources and money to do overall research and subsidies for investment and research. Different perspectives between departments causes bottlenecks to promote carbon reduction in practice, so CO2 emissions still stay high. Executive Yuan has passed the provision which proposes a NT$500 billion bill for the 4 year public infrastructure expansion plan and announced that no less than 10% of budget will be drawn up to fulfill the green requirement. Master plan of energy conservation and carbon mitigation also has been formulated. Plan sets a target to reduce Taiwan CO2 emission to 2005 level in 2020 in short term, and to 2000 level by 2025 in mid-long term. Our National Park set up guides and public facilities for conservation of natural resources, ecological experience, and practice of environment educational. Although the initial plan stage included designing a part of facilities for reducing impact of environment, energy saving and carbon reduction strategies still are not enough. There also were limitations to the building materials and construction methodologies in early, so that causes worst effect and attrition on ecological environment, energy, and resources. Because existing buildings have longer lifecycle and useful life, if we cannot retrofit those public facilities and buildings which have the most lifecycle and high ratio into green building, will increase fiercely environmental deterioration. This study discusses about how domestic and foreign country implement energy saving and carbon reduction by literature review and case study. Through the survey of National Park public works implementing energy saving and carbon reduction find procedures and measures for public works. Also hope it could be a reference for management department.

Recently, energy saving and carbon reduction was a popular theme. From 2008, Taiwan has been start activities of energy saving and carbon reduction. In 2010, this policy broaden the scope to local government. Policy of energy saving and carbon reduction, which has a character: it must be implemented with soft policy tools, especially policy marketing. Facing a lot of policy recipients, policy marketing is to identify, predict and satisfy stakeholder’s needs, then using minimum of authoritarian means and maximum of recipient-friendly means to implement policy. Government can convince stakeholders to accept policy concepts with strategies and tools of policy marketing. It has an advantage: cost of policy implement can decreased. This article employs the models and theories of policy marketing in an attempt to examine the Keelung City’s policy of energy saving and carbon reduction. This thesis emphasized the need of stakeholders. When facing different stakeholders, choosing different stragies and tools of policy marketing, balance and combine different needs. Start with exchange, from product to public service, no matter what dominant or recessive, if it can satisfied each other, creating customer satisfy and promoting policy efficiency, is a good policy marketing. Public sector should construct a network of strategic partnerships, it also could help to spread social effect of policy marketing. Government should apply theories of policy marketing to public policy, because it can get more obedience and lower cost.

This study is aimed to investigate electricity consumption of household electric appliances and analyze energy conservation potential of these appliances. It measures and compares electricity utilization situations of household electric appliances in two kinds of buildings-typical commercial-district residential houses and commercial shops-and then estimates electricity consumption of the whole community according to results of actual measurements. Statistical analysis and correlation analysis of these measured data are used to investigate relevance between utilization mode and temperature and humidity of environmental factors so as to propose strategies of energy conservation. This study choses two cases of eastern district of Tainan City as objects of actual measurement. Case 1 is commercial shop and case 2 is residential area. Power monitoring was conducted from February, 2011 till January, 2012 with minute as measure unit. Results show electricity consumption is positively and negatively correlated with temperature and humidity respectively. Householders' total annual electricity consumption is 4,922.05kwh; maximum and minimum power consumption appears in August and February respectively; electricity consumption during summer is 1.6 times of winter; weekdays' electricity consumption is 1.05 times of holidays', which means householders' weekday electricity consumption is higher than holiday. Annual electricity consumption of the community is 88,889 kilowatt-hour (kwh). Electric appliance with the greatest electricity consumption is refrigerator, followed by air conditioner, television, drinking water dispenser and computer in order. With regard to electricity consumption feature of electric appliances, electricity consumption of old refrigerator is 3 times of energy-saving refrigerator; electricity consumption of old-style air conditioner is 2.6 times of inverter air conditioner; standby electricity consumption of traditional television is 4.3 times of LCD. Two cases' electric appliance that consumes the greatest electricity is refrigerator and then is air conditioner. Case-2 householder's 14-year-old refrigerator is the No.1 origin of electricity consumption. Suggestions of energy saving are proposed through actual measurement analysis. By means of shortening standby time of each electric equipment, carbon emission can be reduced by 121.5kg in case one, 118.8kg in case two, and a total of 756kg for the whole community. If householders replace their old appliances, a greater energy-conservation effect will be produced. In case one, around 3,306 NTD can be saved, about 3,461 NTD in case two, and 15,912 kwh for the whole community. As the price of electricity will be raised soon, such strategy not only saves consumers' expenses, but also helps protect global environment.

As technology advances, digital tachograph records not only more information than before but also driving behavior in detail, which afterwards is exported in charts, in order to be applied in multiple uses. Due to rising fuel price in recent years there has been an increase in transportation cost. As far as managements are concerned, it is a critical issue to understand the reasons for affecting fuel consumption and how to achieve energy saving. In this study, we gathered the drivers’ route of company A and tachograph information. After data processing, the factors that affect fuel consumption are divided into four attributes, which are people, cars, route, driving behavior, and which include 15 variables. Through multiple regression analysis, the reasons that affect fuel consumption are found and establish fuel consumption prediction model. Then the model is used to predict route fuel consumption and calculate carbon emission. At last we explore, under various scenarios, explore the effectiveness of carbon reduction as reference for managements. The results show that the factors affecting fuel consumption are driver’s age, seniority, car type, every kilometer revenue and acceleration. The driver’s age, seniority and car type are the dummy variables. Five variables are associated with the consumption. The route of A company for example, uses the fuel consumption prediction model to estimate the total fuel consumption and calculate CO2 emissions, and the simulated situation adjusts five significantly affected consumption variables. If the driver’s age, seniority, car type, every kilometer revenue and acceleration are in the best situation, the research route can be reduced by 33 tons about 8.5% CO2 emissions a year.

The processes of modernization and industrialization have impacted the ecological environment and natural resource. Energy saving and carbon reduction become one of the core issues in the international community. It is also an important issue of sustainable development for human in the earth. “Rural Rejuvenation” is recently promoted by Taiwan government. Many rural rejuvenation projects of rural communities in the Miaoli areas were approved. The development and feature of the rural community were improved through the projects. It was archived that the landscapes feature creation and the environmental beautification of the rural communities. Energy saving and carbon reduction remain broadly shared goals for both the urban and rural areas. This research selected the potential rural communities for development of energy saving and carbon reduction in the Miaoli areas. Energy saving and carbon reduction were achieved by introducing the idea into daily life of the rural areas and preservation of the traditional technologies. Then, the development strategies were proposed based on simultaneously considering of sustainable development, energy saving and carbon reduction. The potential rural communities can be divided into three types, including the traditional architectural-skill type, the resource-recycle type and the ecology type. It was shown the resulting differences of carbon reduction ranged between 1.4× 103 to 2.72 ×105 kilograms of carbon by applying the carbon reduction processes.In the communities of resource-recycle type, the local resources of soil, rice stalks, rice husk, and bamboo were effectively reused. The pruning branches and persimmon fruits were suggested to produce as carbon-reduction products such as persimmon juices and persimmon stained crafts. In the communities of ecology type, the construction of humanities and natural habitats were combined with the phytoremediation in rural rejuvenation projects. The buffer green belts constructed with ideas of multiple-layered forest and ecological corridor were expected to enhance the carbon sequestration. In the communities of the traditional architectural-skill type, the traditional architectural skills of bamboo-mud wall, adobe masonry wall, manufacturing adobe were suggested to introduce into a workshop space and cultivated professionals with various skills. The workshop space provided a platform for sharing the local resources to implement energy saving and carbon reduction. It was expected the integral development can be driven by this regional development in the rural areas.

In recent years, construction industry has started working on environmental sustainability, often calculating energy saving and carbon reduction numbers that are converted to money for expressing performance. For example, the reduced amount of cement multiplied by 0.89 is equal to the reduced amount of carbon dioxide; electricity savings multiplied by electricity unit price is equal to cost reduction. These numbers have the advantage of being easy to understand, but the lack of verification, in particular in the sources of data and assumptions, create a further need to enhance the reliability of numbers. This study assessed the data quality of energy saving and carbon reduction numbers for construction projects, to enhance the reliability of the construction sustainability performance. First, it reviewed relevant literature of environmental sustainability and performance. Theoretical literature has more narrative concepts, and case studies have more examples calculated, in particular, for manufacturing production process in saving energy and reducing waste numbers. Then it proposed the energy saving and carbon reduction assessment system, considering the construction project life cycle, including mining, manufacturing and transportation that are belonging to manufacturing; plan/design, construction, operation, and recovery/removal that are belonging to construction. Follow-up analysis and sustainability measures are proposed for individual stages in construction for considering the environmental impact. Then it used ten cases from domestic and foreign countries to analyze sustainability effects in energy saving and carbon reduction benefits with quantitative numbers. For example, some amount of cement can be replaced by slag; the cost effectiveness can be compared between the porous asphalt and traditional asphalt. The data quality matrix tool was used to assess the data quality for construction projects. Assessing matrix includes six dimensions: data acquisition method, independence of data supplier, representativeness, temporal correlation, geographical correlation, and technological correlation. Scores are from one to five, five represents the best, one the worst. During the data analysis process some difficulties came up and assumptions were made, giving data quality scores for the six dimensions. The analysis results show that the most difficult dimensions to achieve full marks (five points) are data acquisition method and independence of data supplier, because the sustainability performance for them is difficult to be directly measured and the third party verification is generally lacking. It was also found that manufacturing stage data has better quality than construction data; the whole life cycle data has the lowest quality. Finally, this research checked the data quality matrix applicability and sorted the applicability degree of the six dimensions by importance and difficulty. It was found that data quality can be improved the most with the data acquisition method. After the data are verified and brought into follow-up analysis and calculations the performance numbers can be more reliable.

Energy conservation and carbon reduction is the most important task for the manufacturing industries to cope with climate change at the current stage. This study looks into the results and achievements of voluntary energy conservation and carbon reduction, analyzes for various industrial sectors the key measures and practices and their payback period, and also evaluates the reduction potentials in order to come up with the strategy and actions for promoting industrial voluntary reduction. Results showed that on average, the payback period for energy saving measures is 1.5 years in industrial GHG voluntary reduction agreements. For the steel and cement industry, the payback period can be longer than 3 years; while for the paper, textile and artificial fiber industries is on average 1 year, and only 0.7 years for the petrochemical industries. In terms of energy-intensive industries, both the investment and energy saving benefits are greatest in process improvement. On the other hand, based on the results of SME energy conservation counseling, about 30% improvement proposals were implemented. Improvements are mainly found in the utility systems and the scale of energy saving is much lower than large enterprises, while the investment payback is significantly higher than that of the energy-intensive industries. Overall, great reduction potential is yet to be recognized with the adequate incentive strategies. On the other hand, the destruction fluorinated GHG is the main reduction strategy of the semiconductor and optoelectronics industries. Since these gases have very high GWP, and can be treated at pipe-end with mature technology, the estimated reduction is much larger than the GHG reduced from energy savings by energy-intensive industries. Process improvement is the most effective energy saving and carbon reduction measures for the manufacturing industry. With the support of government grants on more energy-efficient process or the replacement for energy-consuming equipment, energy efficiency would be improved rapidly; energy price increase would also shorten the investment payback to encourage more energy-efficiency investment; the gradual increase of energy prices, with adequate subsidies for energy-saving practices would accelerate the replacement of energy-consuming equipment and hence improve company competitiveness. Before cap and trade comes into force, voluntary reduction is the most essential measure for improving energy efficiency. The enhancement of energy-saving incentives, implementation of GHG inventory, establishment of GHG offset system, and the promotion of carbon footprint, carbon labeling, carbon disclosure, energy management systems and green factory labeling, as well as the ongoing voluntary GHG reduction agreement, energy conservation and carbon reduction counseling, and integration of energy and resource in industrial parks are all effective voluntary carbon reduction strategies.

Energy saving or carbon reduction has become one of the important issues in the world. Therefore, it is urgent to reduce carbon emissions effectively in all countries. To examine the motivation of carbon emission for firms is active or passive; this study investigates the impact of three aspects, the corporate performance, the policy and the global oil price on carbon reduction. The selected samples are the companies which had disclosed carbon emission data in Taiwan from 2012 to 2016. The empirical results show that well-performed companies do not reduce carbon emission actively. However, when the government announces the policy, companies will be forced to reduce their carbon emission. The results of this study demonstrate that the announced policy can effectively reduce the carbon emissions of the companies. It shows that the carbon reduction activities of Taiwanese companies are passive rather than active.

Linnei Township in Yunlin County is one of the few townships that have both purple milkweed butterflies and blue-winged pittas, such precious resources. However, something worth attention is that the incinerator, which didn’t run into business because of the protest from the inhabitants here have influences on the livings of the people and students directly and indirectly. Among them, the information the attitude and behaviors of students showed is the topic worth discussion. This research is preceded through the survey of questionnaires on all the 456 high graders in the elementary schools in Linnei Township. Through this, we can learn how much the literacy of low-carbon involved students’ background of growing, and moreover, discuss the impact on the behavioral intentions of energy-saving and carbon-reducing. In this research, both behavioral intention of energy-saving and carbon-reducing and students’ literacy of low-carbon turn out fine. According to the analysis, the involvement of the literacy of low-carbon is closely positive linear correlated with the behavioral intentions of energy-saving and carbon-reducing. Besides, when analyzing of the personal background virtual variables of the students in the linear regression model, we found the dwelling environment and the parents’ status obviously influences the behavioral intention of energy-saving and carbon-reducing of the students. We use the theory of planned behavior in the regression model in the research. The theory explains and predicts the variations better than the scales of the literacy of low-carbon has do. In addition, it can explain the variation to the intentions of energy-saving and carbon-reducing up to 63.9%, which is far better than the explanations on the variations from most related references. Regression analysis further shows the “perceived behavior control” explains and predicts the best on the intentions of energy-saving and carbon-reducing, and is also the most important factor of the influence. “Perceived behavior control” reflects personal past experiences and the predictive obstacles and the place Linnei students live in is such an environment with special and various species. How we can demonstrate and help the education on the environment through the way of family, school, and local areas is the very topic worth attention now.

This study aims to explore the relationship between energy-saving & carbon-reduction activities and learning performance for students of elementary school. The students of elementary school for surveying are of the sixth grade. After receiving the environmental education of energy-saving & carbon-reduction issue, not only the effects on acknowledge, attitude and behavior of students were studied, but also the school environmental education of could refer to the results. The participants in the research were fifty-four sixth grade elementary students who study in two classes in Yun-Lin County. Participants were divided into two groups: one was experimental group which included twenty-seven students receiving energy-saving & carbon-reduction lecture for twelve classes; the other was control group which also included twenty-seven students who didn’t receive any energy-saving & carbon-reduction instruction. The questionnaire, including knowledge test, attitude and behavior survey on energy-saving and carbon-reduction, was established in this study. Conducting questionnaire investigation before and after instruction, the pre-test and post-test data were analyzed with SPSS software and the results were inferred. The findings revealed that: 1) Before conducting the experimental instruction, the information sources for energy-saving & carbon-reduction are from TV broadcast, internet and school education; 2) Students who are in aspects of gender, social and economical status, and past environmental experiences, differ insignificantly in acknowledge, attitude, and behavior of energy-saving & carbon-reduction; 3) Students in the experimental group differ significantly in their pre- and post-test, and the pro-testers have better performance than the pre-testers; 4) Regarding the analyzed results of post-test between the experimental and control groups, students of the two groups’ acknowledge, attitude and behavior differ significantly, and the performances of experimental group is apparently better than those of the other one; 5) Conducting energy-saving & carbon-reduction instruction can significantly improve students’ acknowledge, attitude, and behavior of energy-saving & carbon-reduction.

The present study is to compile standardized assessment scale of elementary school students’ attitudes toward energy saving and carbon emission reduction and to provide an assessment tool for assessing student performance after learning diagnosis, instructional effectiveness and instructional improvement concerning instruction in energy saving and carbon emission reduction. The present study is based on the expert concept map to compile a semi-open-ended questionnaire, to understand the attitudes that elementary school students have and not have, and with semi-structured interviews, to investigate students’ attitude misconceptions. A close-ended questionnaire for a pre-test was compiled according to the results of analyses on the data collected from the semi-open-ended questionnaire survey and interviews about attitude misconceptions. After the questionnaire questions were examined by experts and pre-tested and revised, the final version of questionnaire was completed and a large-scale survey was conducted. The final formal questionnaire survey used stratified random sampling. A total of 2085 questionnaires were distributed and a total of 1711 valid questionnaires were returned, with a response rate of 82.1%. The reliability, validity, difficulty, and discrimination of the questionnaire were tested. The norm and the derived score table for the attitudes toward energy saving and carbon emission reduction were established and a guideline manual was compiled. This study investigates the attitudes of elementary school students at different grade levels toward energy saving and carbon emission reduction and also investigates the influences of the different student backgrounds on their attitudes toward energy saving and carbon emission reduction. The results of the study are as follows: The results are shown as follows: lower-, middle-, and higher- grade students had 12, 20, 21 ever-known concepts and 1, 5, 6 attitude misconceptions respectively. In the study, the test items for the standardized assessment of the attitudes toward energy saving and carbon emission reduction can be divided into five parts: attitudes toward global warming, feeling responsible for reducing global warming, attitudes toward energy saving and carbon emission reduction and conservation of resources in daily life, attitudes toward the use of low-carbon and renewable energy resources, and attitudes toward the environmentally friendly use of energy resources. For first and second grade levels, there are 18 test items with an average difficulty of .647, average discrimination of .513 and Cronbach of .816. For third and fourth grade levels, there are 21 test items with an average difficulty of .652, average discrimination of .535 and Cronbach of .847. For fifth and sixth grade levels, there are 19 test items with an average difficulty of .600, average discrimination of .531 and Crobach of .850. According to the results of assessment of elementary school students’ attitudes toward energy saving and carbon emission reduction, first and second graders have best performances on test items related to “feeling responsible for reducing global warming” while having worst performances on test items related to “the attitudes toward global warming”. Third and fourth graders have best performances on test items related to “the attitudes toward global warming” while having worst performances on test items related to “the attitudes toward the environmentally friendly use of energy resources”. Fifth and sixth graders have best performances on test items related to “the attitudes toward energy saving and carbon emission reduction and conservation of resources in daily life” while having worst performances on test items related to “the attitudes toward the environmentally friendly use of energy resources”. The attitude misconceptions that elementary school students have are: air conditioning can lower the rising temperatures caused by global warming; we should not often use public transportation services because public transportation can produce more exhaust pollution and cost money; students are not willing to eat more vegetables and less meat because meat can make a person strong. These show that the elementary school students have attitude misconceptions toward energy saving and carbon emission reduction and thus have deviant behavior because they lack sufficient knowledge or information. Elementary school students usually learn the information and attitudes about energy saving and carbon emission reduction from parents and teachers. In school, teachers who teach the knowledge and attitudes about energy saving and carbon emission reduction are, in order of importance, classroom teachers, science and technology teachers, and social studies teachers. At home, family members who teach knowledge and attitudes about energy saving and carbon emission reduction are, in order of importance, mothers and fathers. For student performances on the assessment of attitudes toward energy saving and carbon emission reduction, those students who obtained knowledge and attitudes about energy saving and carbon emission reduction from extracurricular books performed significantly better. The promotion of energy saving and carbon emission reduction by some teachers yields negative effects. This may be because these teachers have some latent misconceptions and latent attitude misconceptions.

This article has made a deep study on the energy saving and carbon reduction subject performed at the junior high schools; basing on the existed energy and environmental education background, clarify the scope of energy saving and carbon reduction and plan for a series of teaching activities. In this Article we particularly rise up the “guideline of energy saving and carbon reduction activities in campus” for the school staff as a specification of actually participating in the activities. In the teaching materials we’ve added the multimedia script, having students to get more interest in the learning process. In the propaganda aspect, we use the web digital platform to help learning. The final goal of energy saving and carbon reduction education is to incubate the citizens with both “energy saving” and “carbon reduction” habit and fulfill it in the daily life. We sincerely expect that the effort of this study project can give a good reference of energy saving and carbon reduction propaganda education toward local junior highs.

The convenience and low prices of photocopy center often lead to the open of many photocopy centers near universities. The past studies had already point out that the operation of a printer will cause air pollution which is harmful to human beings. This study chooses two photocopy centers, one with an open business area while the other area closed. We runs investigation and assessment on indoor air quality, such as volatile organic compounds sampling project (VOCs), suspended particles (PM10, PM2.5), ozone (O3), carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) and so on. The analysis results has shown that although the open area of business has good ventilation but is vulnerable to air pollution while the closed area of business has indoor air-conditioning system but is often lack of ventilation, this will cause the concentration of indoor air pollution rises as time increases. Take carbon dioxide as an example, the initial monitoring data is 400ppm, than the carbon dioxide increases 10 ~ 20 ppm every 10 minutes as the time goes by. Eight hours later, the accumulation of concentration can be as high as 800 ~ 1000ppm, close to the proposed EPA standard. This study uses lighting and air-conditioning as a main energy-saving project in photocopy centers, the study brings up the power consumption analysis in lighting and air-conditioning and provide specific recommendation to improve the energy-saving carbon reduction in lighting and air-conditioning in photocopy centers.
