However, it has not been previously shown explicitly which key parameters are most crucial, how much each parameter affects results and conclusions and how different aspects depend on each other. The interconnection between waste incineration and the energy system is elaborated by testing parameters potentially crucial to the result: design of the incineration plant, avoided energy generation, degree of efficiency, electricity efficiency in combined heat and power plants (CHP), avoided fuel, emission level of the avoided electricity generation and avoided waste management. CO2 emissions have been calculated for incineration of 1 kWh mixed combustible waste. The results indicate that one of the most important factors is the electricity efficiency in CHP plants in combination with the emission level of the avoided electricity generation.

  • Assessing the Sustainability Implications of Alternative Aviation Fuels
    WORKING PAPER 2021-11 © 2021 INTERNATIONAL COUNCIL ON CLEAN TRANSPORTATION MARCH 2021 Fueling flight: Assessing the sustainability implications of alternative aviation fuels Authors: Nikita Pavlenko, Stephanie Searle Keywords: Aviation, biofuels, low-carbon fuels Aviation faces large technical barriers to making a transition to hydrogen or electricity- powered airframes, so the industry will probably have to rely on liquid fuels through 2050. That is particularly true for the medium- and long-haul flights that generate two- thirds of aviation emissions. If the industry is to meet its long-term climate goal of cutting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 50% by 2050 without curbing traffic growth or using out-of-sector carbon offsets, sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) will need to play a key role. SAFs can be used to generate in-sector GHG reductions when they supplant conventional petroleum jet fuel. In 2018, less than 0.01% of aviation fuel came from alternative sources (Hupe, 2019; Graver, Zhang, & Rutherford, 2019). While reducing petroleum consumption in aviation is an important objective for decarbonization, the specific types of alternative fuels used to displace petroleum will determine the net climate impact of any alternative fuels policy. A fuel’s feedstock and its conversion process—together called the fuel pathway—determine the fuel’s life-cycle GHG emissions. The European Union’s recently announced Green New Deal framework calls for a clear regulatory roadmap for the decarbonization of aviation, to be achieved using a combination of new technology, SAFs, modal shift, and improved efficiency (European Parliament, 2020). As part of this effort, the European Commission announced the ReFuelEU initiative to deploy SAFs to decarbonize EU aviation (European Commission, n.d.).

    FEBRUARY 2015 NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES WASTE ENERGY RECOVERY: RENEWABLE ENERGY FROM COUNTY LANDFILLS WASTE ENERGY RECOVERY: RENEWABLE ENERGY FROM COUNTY LANDFILLS CONTENTS Introduction 1 Solid Waste and Landfills as Sources of Energy 2 Where are Waste and Landfill Energy Harnessed? 3 Why Pursue Waste and Landfill Energy Projects? 4 Potential Challenges 8 Funding Opportunities 8 Conclusion 9 Additional Resources 10 Endnotes 11 February 2015 1 Counties can increase their metal recycling rates by recovering metal during the waste-to-energy process. Source: Shutterstock INTRODUCTION Each year, Americans on average generate nearly 4 38 pounds of trash per person per day, or collectively about 251 million tons per year 1 We recycle about 87 million tons of this waste, for a total recycling rate of around 34 5 percent, but the majority of the waste we produce ends up in county-run landfills across the country 2 Known as municipal solid waste, this trash is composed of a variety of items that people throw away, including food waste, yard clippings, electronics, tires, furniture and more Counties play an important role in the collection and disposal of municipal solid waste, providing regular and efficient waste collection to keep counties safe and sanitary, while ensuring that waste is properly handled at landfills to avoid environmental damage from soil and groundwater contamination The current recycling rate of 34 percent is the highest it has been in the U S since the 1980s, when it was around 10 percent 3 Through efforts including

Doing so in cold climates even more so. Getting to Net Zero Energy use in these climates, now that’s what we call a tough. But with good design and engaged tenants, the near impossible becomes entirely possible, practical, and fun. This panel will describe key strategies for greatly reducing energy consumption in commercial buildings in cold climates with a focus on smart choices for building design, high performance mechanical systems and the tenant’s role. Specific strategies and systems will be discussed with pros, cons, and application advice. Several Net Zero Energy commercial buildings in cold climates will be highlighted to show the theory in practice.
