The technology is used to reduce primary energy consumption for water heating.
These emissions are caused primarily by primary energy consumption.
Northern Ireland's total primary energy consumption is approximately 4.90 million tonnes of oil equivalent.
In 2008 Hawaii's primary energy consumption by source was:
At least the current statistics are based on actual primary energy consumption, so are reasonably robust on their own terms.
With 78% biomass (mostly charcoal) has the largest contribution in primary energy consumption in Guinea.
To minimize the total primary energy consumption, the many passive and active daylighting techniques are the first daytime solution to employ.
Washington's Primary Energy Consumption by Source (.
The combined primary energy from renewables accounts for about 10% of the total primary energy consumption in Italy, which was 172 Mtoe in 2010.
U.S, Primary Energy Consumption by Source and Sector in 2008 is tabled as following:
By the year 2020, for example, primary energy consumption and electricity sales were projected to decrease by 8% and 10%, respectively, compared to the CEF reference case.
At the national level, energy intensity is the ratio of total primary energy consumption of the country to either the gross domestic product, or the physical output (total goods produced).
Australia's total current primary energy consumption of approximately 5500 PJ/a could be met by an area of 4000 km2 of solar collectors with an average of 20% conversion efficiency.
A few ZEB's fail to fully exploit more affordable conservation technology and all use onsite active renewable energy technologies like photovoltaic to offset the building's primary energy consumption.
The International Energy Agency released a publication that estimated that existing buildings are responsible for more than 40% of the world's total primary energy consumption and for 24% of global carbon dioxide emissions.
The objective must be to raise the share of renewable energy sources in primary energy consumption from the present 5.2 % to 15 % by the year 2010, and I believe that this ambitious aim can be a realistic one.
Its specific primary energy consumption has decreased by 16% and the specific electricity consumption has decreased by 11%, due to measures such as improved process technology and investment in combined heat and power (CHP).
Primary Energy Consumption by Source (Table 1.3) has been reconfigured to display noncombustible renewable energy in three columns: Captured Energy, Adjustment for Fossil Fuel Equivalence, and Primary Energy Total.
A household might burn more gas in one winter month than the heat equivalent of all the electricity it consumes in a year, although the primary energy consumption at thermal power plants will be two to three times higher than the energy content of the delivered electricity.
In France, Poland and the UK, Delta estimates that supply-side options can contribute up to 32% of the overall goal of a 20% carbon emission reduction and up to 26% of an overall goal to reduce primary energy consumption by 20%.
By 2007, India's Ambassador was able to inform the United Nations Security Council that its GDP was growing by 8%, with only 3.7% growth in its total primary energy consumption, suggesting it had effectively de-linked energy consumption from economic growth.
At the European Union level, the energy sector consumes 30% of primary energy consumption and an analysis by Delta Energy and Environment of the France, Poland and the UK shows that increases supply-side efficiency has the same overall energy saving potential as demand-side efficiency.
The second major area is, of course, that of renewable energies, so can we please not act as if it were already self-evident in the European Union that all Member States would accept as a single goal what the Commission is proposing, namely that primary energy consumption in Europe should be 20% renewable?
That is why concentrating on renewable energies, as the Commission proposes, is very definitely the right way to go. That will of course have to involve a burden-sharing arrangement, with every country in Europe having to take on a certain percentage and thus make it possible for the 20% target for primary energy consumption to be achieved by 2020.
