Integrated Design for Sustainable Energy Systems
update:2022/06/06
- Features and Uniqueness
-
- The concept of LCS (low carbon society) is a unique approach having multi-dimensional considerations such as social, economic and environmental dimensions. The LCS aims at an extensive restructuring of worldwide energy supply/demand network system by not only replacing the conventional parts with the new ones, but also integrating all the necessary components and designing absolutely different energy networks. An energy-economic model is a tool for decision making for a variety of purposes, such as energy security planning, climate policy analysis, and technology innovation assessment.
- Practical Application
-
Provide local governments, participating companies, and consultants with databases related to local energy supply and demand to support data analysis and scenario design in planning smart cities and decarbonized regions.
