Modelling The Effect of Future Uncertainty in Energy Prices on Decarbonization Pathways for Secondary Aluminium Production

Lorenzo Aimone, François Maréchal, Daniel Alexander Florez Orrego, Manuele Domenico Margni, Dareen Zuhir Omar Dardor

Aluminium is one of the most widely used metals in the world, but its production is highly energy intensive and largely dependent on the use of fossil fuels. A typical secondary aluminium production facility consumes 700-1,000 kWh of natural gas and 200-40 ...

Trends in the Extremes of Environments Associated with Severe US Thunderstorms

Anthony Christopher Davison, Erwan Fabrice Koch, Jonathan Koh Boon Han

Severe thunderstorms can have devastating impacts. Concurrently high values of convective available potential energy (CAPE) and storm relative helicity (SRH) are known to be conducive to severe weather, so high values of PROD - (CAPE)(1/2) x SRH have been ...

Temporal variations in the primary energy use and greenhouse gas emissions of electricity provided by the Swiss grid

Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz

It is a frequent practice nowadays to use mean annual conversion factors (CFs) when performing life-cycle assessment (LCA) of processes and products that use electricity supplied by the grid. In this paper, we conduct an hourly assessment of the greenhouse ...
