Abstract:

While renewable energy is in the process of maturing, energy efficiency improvements may provide an opportunity to reduce energy consumption and consequent greenhouse gas emissions to bridge the gap between current emissions and the reductions necessary to prevent serious effects of climate change and will continue to be an integral part of greenhouse gas emissions policy moving forward. Residential energy is a largely untapped source of energy reductions as consumers, who wish to reduce energy consumption for monetary, environmental, and other reasons, face barriers. One such barrier is a lac

The objective of this thesis is to create an automatic water management system capable of optimizing the usage of warm water stored in two water tanks to reduce the monthly energy consumption of the instant water heater installed in a residential house. This system is called Water Mixing System (WMS). The two heat sources considered are: PV-T system and heat rejected by the air condition system. The PV-T system is a new technology that allows transformation of the sun radiation into both electricity and warm water, increasing the efficiency of the panel compared to either a common photovoltaic

Abstract:

In the current electrical grid, utility companies have begun to use demand side management (DSM) programs and time-of-use (TOU) pricing schemes to shape the residential load profile. However, it is difficult for the residential users to respond to the pricing signal and manually manage the operation of various household appliances. Hence, the autonomous energy consumption scheduling of residential loads and electric vehicles (EVs) is necessary for the users to benefit from the DSM programs. In this thesis, we propose different algorithms to schedule the energy consumption of residential loads

The rapid housing and building development in the Dammam region of Saudi Arabia has transformed the region into a progressive urban area. The contemporary buildings which have spread all over the region in a short period have failed to provide acceptable comfort conditions inside the house, leading to the widespread use of mechanical cooling systems. The combination of poor thermal design and the rise in electricity prices has resulted in high annual fuel bills for running the air conditioning systems.

Abstract:

Achieving sustainable consumption of energy is an important issue due to the increasing demand for energy and its environmental impact. One of the biggest consumers of the global energy production is the residential sector. Factors determining pattern of energy consumption in this sector are firstly, characteristics of the buildings and equipment and appliances which are used inside them and secondly, people who are using the buildings. The former could be approached by using efficiency strategies; i.e. designing and using materials and utilities which are low energy demanding or reducing cons

Abstract:

The world is now in a transition towards a more sustainable future. Actions to reduce the green-house gases (GHG) emissions have been promoted and implemented globally, including switching to electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy technologies, such as solar photovoltaics (PV). This has led to a massive increase of EVs and PV adoption worldwide in the recent decade. However, large integration of EVs and PV in buildings and electricity distribution systems pose new challenges such as increased peak loads, power mismatch, component overloading, and voltage violations, etc. Improved synergy

Abstract:

Abstract Achieving the objective of a decarbonised economy by 2050 will require massive efforts in the energy sector. Emissions from residential houses will have to be almost completely cut, by around 90% by 2050. Home automation is a potential tool for achieving this goal. However, the environmental and economic benefits of automation technologies first need to be assessed. This thesis evaluates the impact of home automation for electricity management in the residential sector using environmental and economic indicators. To this end, a life cycle assessment was performed to evaluate the impac

Abstract:

Com o aumento do consumo de energia elétrica no Brasil, em função de fatores como o aumento da renda per capita e o maior acesso da população aos sistemas de suprimento, justifica-se a procura por fontes alternativas de energia. Esta Dissertação aborda o consumo energético residencial e analisa o papel do aquecimento de água para banho, que representa uma sobrecarga para infraestrutura elétrica no Brasil. O trabalho apresenta uma visão crítica em relação à predominância da eletricidade nesse uso final da energia, já que mais de 80% das residências brasileiras aquecem água para banho com chuvei

It is estimated that the Brazilian population shows an increase by 2050 about 50%, so the generation and distribution of more energy becomes a concern. There is a great evolution on the process of evaluating equipment and buildings for their energy efficiency, however it is known th

Abstract:

Le secteur résidentiel en Algérie consomme 25 % de l'énergie finale et émet en moyenne 21 % des gaz à effet de serre. Or, il existe un important gisement d'économie d'énergie dans ce secteur. Ce constat a conduit à rechercher la manière de rendre le secteur du logement plus efficient en termes de consommation d'énergie et d'émission de CO2. Cette thèse vise à développer différentes méthodes d'analyse quantitative dédiées à l'amélioration performantielle du secteur résidentiel à l'horizon 2050 . Il s'agit, en clair, d'infléchir les consommations d'énergie et de stabiliser les émissions de CO2.
