  1. 1. A Policy Analytical Approach of Assessing Energy Efficiency Standards and Labeling for Appliances

    Author : Lei Zeng; Jinyue Yan; Siaw Kiang Chou; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Efficiency Standards; Minimum Energy Performance Standard MEPS ; Energy Labels; Energy Efficiency Labels; Eco-Labels; Appliance Energy; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : China is the world’s largest producer and consumer of household appliances, lighting and commercial equipment. China first adopted Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) in 1989. READ MORE

  2. 2. Self-Consumption of Photovoltaic Electricity in Residential Buildings

    Author : Rasmus Luthander; Joakim Widén; Joakim Munkhammar; Ewa Wäckelgård; Bernhard Wille-Haussmann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Photovoltaics; Solar energy; Self-consumption; Grid integration; Distributed generation; Energy storage; Curtailment; Power system; Engineering Science; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : Worldwide installations of photovoltaics (PV) have increased rapidly due to national subsidies and decreasing prices. One important market segment is building-applied PV systems, for which the generated electricity can be self-consumed. READ MORE

  3. 3. Apply heat pump systems in commercial household products to reduce environmental impact : How to halve the electricity consumption for a household dishwasher

    Author : Peder Bengtsson; Jonas Berghel; Per Lundqvist; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; household appliance; electricity consumption; heat pump; environmental impact; Miljö- och energisystem; Environmental and Energy Systems;

    Abstract : In the household appliance industry, heat pump systems have been used for a long time in refrigerators and freezers to cool food, and the industry has driven the development of small, high-quality, low-price heat pump components. In the last few decades, heat pump systems have been introduced in other household appliances, with the express purpose of reducing electricity consumption. READ MORE

  4. 4. Characterization of household energy consumption in Sweden : energy savings potential and feedback approaches

    Author : Iana Vassileva; Erik Dahlquist; Jenny Palm; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Energy consumption is on a constant rise with domestic use contributing substantially to the overall consumption. The population growth along with ever increasing comfort levels and daily appliance usage are driving the domestic electricity demand to higher levels. READ MORE

  5. 5. Smart control of PV and exhaust air heat pump systems in single-family buildings

    Author : Emmanouil Psimopoulos; Joakim Widén; Chris Bales; Tomas Persson; Jarek Kurnitski; Uppsala University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; photovoltaics; heat pump; forecast services; thermal storage; electrical storage; control algorithms; TESHP Test av solvärmepumpsystem; TESHP Test av solvärmepumpsystem;

    Abstract : Recently, decentralized household photovoltaic (PV) systems have become more affordable and there is a tendency to decrease subsidies for the PV excess electricity fed into the grid. Therefore, there is growing interest in methods to increase the self-consumption (SC), which is the part of the electricity produced by PV and directly consumed on buildings. READ MORE
