Energy World March 2016

We cover aspects of both the demand and supply sides of the energy equation in this issue – from energy use in buildings to efforts to capture carbon dioxide from power plants. 

Ground source heat pumps represent one of several new technologies making an impact to replace more traditional heat and cooling technology for buildings – see page 14. 

Then we take a look at just how buildings are assessed and credited for environmental, including energy, performance; an acronymrich area with BREEAM and LEED. Last, an article on how improving the building envelope has to come first in any strategy to improve the energy performance of the built environment.

Crossing to the Crossing to the supply side, we take a look at the so far disappointing progress made towards building carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects in Europe, despite some promising new technology, as well as a piece on the scope for sequestering carbon
