The resulting strategies will be tested in the SmartEnergyLab at Fraunhofer ISE. Two main conclusions are drawn from this trend influencing control mechanisms of prospective home energy systems. Green Heat Pump Project First: Different sources of energy supply and generation will be found in domestic energy systems on the house level. On An increase of efficiency in energy use leads to a reduction of CO2 the thermal side solar thermal systems, conventional boilers, emissions. While in general a big share of energy is used in the cogeneration systems and thermal storages are expected. On residential sector. In many European countries it is used especially the electric side local PV plants, battery storage and electric for heating purposes. In Europe 36 % of the residential building vehicles are likely. Hence, integrating and orchestrating the stock are multifamily homes of which approximately 80 % are generation of energy from different renewable sources, the older than 20 years. Consequently, increasing the energy efficiency storage and conventional energy generation into a home of such houses would have a big impact on the EU CO2 reduction energy system is a challenging task for system and control goals. Heat pumps as efficient heat generation systems can be designers. From the operational point of view the system applied to replace low efficiency heating technologies based on needs to be operated with high efficiency and at minimum fossil fuels. Due to the good accessibility air as heat source can be cost. Considering solar thermal energy and electricity a solution for heat pumps in cities. Thus, the Green Heat Pump generated from PV in a private house one option for a smart project aims at developing a new, high efficient air-to-water heat home is to be operated by means of maximizing the use of self- pump for retrofitting multifamily houses.

This will mean many different things in many different and often far-flung parts of the world. But, to be successful, it must also have real meaning in our own backyard – in Germany, the largest country in our shared European Union, a vital political and economic partner, a fertile landscape for Irish culture and an innovative and global player of more than 80 million people in today’s shifting world.

  • Freight Transport Modal Choice in North West England's Atlantic Gateway Alan Bury 2019
    FREIGHT TRANSPORT MODAL CHOICE IN NORTH WEST ENGLAND’S ATLANTIC GATEWAY ALAN BURY A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Liverpool John Moores University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2019 Abstract Overuse of the road network has led to greater levels of congestion, elevated levels of road surface wear and tear and an increase in transport related air pollution. When taken in combination with the failure of attempts to balance modal split the road network’s continuing slide towards breaking point seems to be beyond question. However, circumstances have conspired to present one particular region of England with a tabula rasa for the development of new policies to influence the modal split of freight transportation. England’s economy is currently based around a London-centric model. The current move towards developing what has become known as a Northern Powerhouse is aimed at rebalancing the economy of the nation for the betterment of all of its citizens. The Atlantic Gateway is an integral part of these efforts. The devolution of powers and responsibilities from national government to regional authorities may provide an opportunity for positive change the likes of which has not be seen in the North of England since the beginning of the industrial revolution. Different regions are influenced by their own geographical and infrastructure constraints. Devolution ensures that decisions are made locally and are therefore more able to meet local needs. A greater understanding of what influences modal choice within the Atlantic Gateway allows local policy makers to make better informed decisions on how to accommodate the increasing levels of freight transportation on the existing local transport infrastructure.

He brings to the table more than 16 years of international market experience in the field of sustainable cooling and heat pump solutions and has extensive specialist know-how in sales, project planning and product management, international distribution management and business development. After studying engineering in Cologne, Sascha Paulus began his professional career as a project engineer for cooling solutions with Glen Dimplex. He then spent some time working for Glen Dimplex in the USA, where he was responsible for process optimisation in sales and production. After returning to Germany, he took over as the head of sales in the industrial cooling unit. From 2011 to 2016, Sascha Paulus was the head of product management for the cooling division at ait deutschland GmbH in Kasendorf. Most recently, Paulus worked for the Mannheim-based refrigeration and climate control specialists Rütgers GmbH & Co KG as a support base manager responsible for major refrigeration projects and the absorber market. The 41-year old is now returning to his old stamping ground after more than 10 years away, aiming to develop the cooling business with customer-focused and innovative solutions. “In Sascha Paulus, we are delighted to have recruited an experience expert for this position and we are confident that he will develop our new cooling business unit with his expertise and experience in responsible positions”, says CDD Managing Director, Clemens Dereschkewitz.
