“…By 2030 a 40% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, a 32% production from renewable energy sources, and a 32.5% reduction in primary energy consumed are expected. The set of these objectives are part of a roadmap that will lead the European Union to achieve climate neutrality in 2050 (Table 1), considered as its capacity not to influence climate change since it will not produce net emissions of greenhouse gases (Lehmann et al 2019).…”

Governance Governance means the set of principles, ways, techniques, practices, and procedures that are used for the management and government of companies, organizations, institutions, or complex phenomena that have significant social repercussions. The notion of governance in the extra-economic context is affirmed in the new millennium, with the awareness of the crisis of the hierarchical model of relationship regulation and its inadequacy with respect to the growing complexity of social, political, and economic phenomena that affect the territory and environment. Governance for sustainable development concerns the government of a complex phenomenon whose characteristics are very close to the governance of territorial and environmental systems. In this field, the governance considers how the political action of a given territory or environment is organized and directed, and its focus shifts from the theme of the exercise of power, through concrete government actions, to the issue of quality of these actions, especially in terms of effectiveness and consistency. Partnership Partnership means a relationship of collaboration between two or more economic, social, and institutional subjects for the realization of common or complementary projects or activities that are generally aimed at the realization of interventions of economic and territorial development, environmental protection, and social integration. The partnerships are activated to allow for a greater quantity and diversification of economic, human, professional, instrumental, and institutional resources.Partnership is a widespread tool all over the world, and it is stimulated and supported by the numerous international treaties that assign a central role to organized civil

This study investigates the impact of fuel price changes on fuel demand in Turkey. The rise in global oil prices since the fourth quarter of 2021 has resulted in considerable increases in oil prices in countries that rely on foreign oil consumption. With the devaluation of the Turkish lira beginning the fourth quarter of 2021, the rise in oil prices reached a historical high in a very short period of time. This situation necessitates the presentation of a recent empirical study to the literature on whether oil consumption changes as a result of oil price fluctuations. Weekly data from 2014 to 2022 were analyzed for this purpose. The fuel expenditures of households with bank and credit cards were utilized as the dependent variable in the study to indicate fuel demand. The average of unleaded gasoline and diesel prices, car sales, car rental charges, and the nominal USD/TL rate are all considered independent factors. According to the analysis, an increase in the exchange rate and gasoline costs lowers the fuel price. The increase in expenses connected to car sales and rental, on the other hand, increases fuel costs.

“…According to the recent legislations and policies, European countries have to reach new targets in terms of CO 2 emissions. The new goals are set in order to decrease the current emissions level, compared to the one of the 1990, of 40% by 2030 and up to 80% by 2050 (European Climate Change Programme, 2020; Lehmann et al, 2019;Mathiesen et al, 2019). In order to reduce the CO 2 of this significant amount, one of the strategies to be implemented consists in the improvement of energy systems efficiency and, at the same time, promoting the increase in the renewable sources exploitation by a major integration of renewable-based systems for energy production.…”

Influence of the Prosumer Allocation and Heat Production on a District Heating Network

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

To face the climate change and global warming issues, European countries have set new targets in order to reduce the CO2 emissions to 40% by 2030 and to 80% by 2050. The district heating networks, and in particular low-temperature networks, due to their efficient heat supply and distribution represent a key point for meeting these goals, as well as the renewable sources integration. Nowadays, in fact, about 40% of the energy consumed in Europe is for heating, most of which is provided by fossil fuels employment. This article concerns the smart district heating, namely, the possibility of a bidirectional energy exchange between the district heating network and the connected users. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibility of including a prosumer—that is, a customer who can both consume and produce heat—in an existing small/medium district heating network. To this purpose, an in-house–developed software has been applied to analyze whether and which user of the district heating network is more suitable to be set as prosumer and the effect of the installed distributed generation system on the network. The results show how the choice of a prosumer over another and how the amount of exchanged thermal power affect the performance of the network, with a consequent need of a modification in its operation and management.
