The goal of sustainability in buildings can only hope to be realised if buildings are designed to both conserve and … generate energy. The Solar Office at Doxford International is designed to minimise the use of energy while its external fabric … is designed to replace such energy that is used. The recently completed building is now subject of a comprehensive …

The objective of the study is to investigate the short-run and long-run causality relationship among energy … depletion in Nepal and between energy production & poverty in Pakistan. For the other three countries, the Granger causality … runs from energy production to poverty in Bangladesh and India, and from poverty to energy production in Sri Lanka. The …

evaluation through energy and exergy efficiencies. The solar pond system is filled with magnesium chloride containing water to … the temperature sensors. The energy and exergy content distributions are determined for the heat storage zone and the non …-convective zone in August. The energy and exergy efficiencies of the solar pond are defined as a function of solar radiation and …
