Dynamic temperature dependence patterns in future energy demand models in the context of climate change
Hekkenberg, M.; Moll, H.C.; Uiterkamp, A.J.M. Schoot - In: Energy 34 (2009) 11, pp. 1797-1806
Energy demand depends on outdoor temperature in a ‘u’ shaped fashion. Various studies have used this temperature dependence to investigate the effects of climate change on energy demand. Such studies contain implicit or explicit assumptions to describe expected socio-economic changes that...
