This paper analyzes the impacts of the modified needs for space heating and cooling due to global warming on the … Switzerland over the period 2010–2060. We find significant welfare gains from reduced heating needs, exceeding largely the costs … of the additional electricity needed for cooling. We also find large rebound effects. For instance, while the climate …

The reversed rectification heat pump (RRHP) is a novel type of absorption heat pump developed at Laboratoire des sciences du génie chimique (LSGC) in the research group of Professor Le Goff. The distinctive characteristic of the RRHP is that both the separator and the absorber are multi-stage...

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...
