Abstract: Air conditioning (AC) demand has recently grown to about 10% of total electricity globally, and the International Energy Agency (IEA) predicts that the cooling requirement for buildings globally increases by three-fold by ...

Abstract: Abstract. Electrification of space heating and cooling, together with more frequent and intense temperature extremes, is shifting when and where peak electricity demand occurs, increasing stress on power systems during ...

Abstract: To determine potential changes in the frequency and intensity of future storm events due to climate change in New York City (NYC), a statistical downscaling technique is proposed. First, a historical benchmark was determined ...

Abstract: Qatar Environment and Energy Research Institute (QEERI) hosted a workshop entitled “Impact of Sustainable Buildings in Arid Environment on the Indoor and Outdoor Air Quality,” held in Doha, Qatar, on May 17–19, 2022, ...

Abstract: The power transmission infrastructure is vulnerable to extreme weather events, particularly hurricanes and tropical storms. A recent example is the damage caused by Hurricane Maria (H-Maria) in the archipelago of Puerto ...

Abstract: This work is motivated by the accelerated pathways to decarbonize our cities. New York City (NYC) is a key example with local law 97 which calls to decarbonize the city by 2050. One of the major sources of carbon emissions ...

Abstract: Abstract. Extreme warm temperature events cause energy consumption and resultant electrical power demand spikes in large metropolitan areas and pose challenges to energy service providers, while enhancing operational ...
