The relation between sustainable development and the use of resources, particularly energy resources, is of great significance to societies. Attaining sustainable development requires that sustainable energy resources be used, and is assisted if resources are used efficiently. Exergy methods are important since they are useful for improving efficiency.
(DOI: 10.1016/J.RSER.2007.05.001) Globally, buildings are responsible for approximately 40% of the total world annual energy consumption. Most of this energy is for the provision of lighting, heating, cooling, and air conditioning. Increasing awareness of the environmental impact of CO2 and NOx emissions and CFCs triggered a renewed

The results suggest that exergy provides the basis for an effective measure of the potential of a substance or energy form to impact the environment and appears
The relations between energy and sustainable development, and between the environment and sustainable development, are described, and an illustrative example is presented. Throughout the paper several issues relating to energy, environment and sustainable development are examined from both current and future
Energy usage by an exponentially increasing human population has created environmental problems that are stressing several ecosystems on earth. The concept of eco-exergy (which is not equivalent to mechanical work) has been used to explain the relationship between energy use and the formation of complex organisms in
This book deals with exergy and its applications to various energy systems and applications as a potential tool for design, analysis and optimization, and its
A new sustainability index is developed as a measure of how exergy efficiency affects sustainable development. Exergy can also identify better than energy
In this paper, some key aspects and definitions of exergy are presented, and practical examples are given in order to highlight its usefulness in design, analysis and performance improvement for various types of energy processes for better environment and sustainable development. The relations between exergy, sustainability and
This multi-disciplinary book presents the most recent advances in exergy, energy, and environmental issues. Volume 1 focuses on fundamentals in the field and covers current problems, future needs, and prospects in the area of energy and environment from researchers worldwide. Based on some selected lectures from the Eleventh International

Sustainable Energy Development Strategies typically involve three major technological changes: energy savings on the demand side [1], [2], efficiency improvements in the energy production [3], [4], and replacement of fossil fuels by various sources of renewable energy [5], [6]. Consequently, large-scale renewable energy implementation
Full size image. When we look at the energy sources, four main categories can be mentioned as fossil fuels, nuclear, renewables, as well as others. Currently, fossil fuels are the dominant energy source, globally, as shown in Fig. 2.2. Fossil fuels replaced wood and whale oil as the dominant energy source.
The energy sector plays a vital role in attempts to achieve sustainable development by balancing economic and social developments with environmental protection. National governments need to assess the long-term advantages and disadvantages of their available energy sources to reconcile the pressures induced by
This chapter elucidates the concept of exergy and its relationship to the energy resources. It derives useful expressions for the exergy of primary energy sources including: fossil fuels, geothermal, solar, wind, hydraulic, tidal, wave, and nuclear. The effects of the environment on the exergy of energy sources, the energy conversion
In this study, the feed-water-heating method is studied due to its numerous advantages for the repowering of 320 MW units at Isfahan power plant. In this method, only low-pressure heat exchangers or only high-pressure heat exchangers can be replaced with a new gas–water heat exchanger, or both can be replaced by two high-pressure and low
There is an intimate connection between energy, the environment and sustainable development. A society seeking sustainable development ideally must utilize only energy resources which cause no environmental impact (e.g. which release no emissions to the environment). However, since all energy resources lead to some
This book is devoted to the analysis and applications of energy, exergy, and environmental issues in all sectors of the economy, including industrial processes, transportation, buildings, and services. Energy sources and technologies considered are hydrocarbons, wind and solar energy, fuel cells, as well as thermal and electrical storage.
