Book Synopsis Energy Sprawl Solutions by : Joseph M. Kiesecker
Download or read book Energy Sprawl Solutions written by Joseph M. Kiesecker and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2017-06-15 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the next several decades, as human populations grow, the demand for energy will soar. But renewable energy sources have a large energy sprawl--the amount of land needed to produce energy--which can threaten biodiversity. In Energy Sprawl Solutions, scientists Joseph M. Kiesecker and David Naugle provide a roadmap for preserving biodiversity despite the threats of energy sprawl. Their strategy--development by design--identifies and sets aside land where biodiversity can thrive while consolidating development in areas with lower biodiversity value. This contributed volume features case studies from countries around the world, each describing a different energy sector and the way they have successfully maximized biodiversity protection. This book provides a needed guide for elected officials, industry representatives, NGOs and community groups who have a stake in sustainable energy-development planning.

Book Synopsis Energy, Land, and Public Policy by : J. B. Cullingworth
Download or read book Energy, Land, and Public Policy written by J. B. Cullingworth and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of alternative forms of energy supply since the mid-1970s has brought with it a range of new issues and concerns, ranging from nuclear waste disposal to land use planning for energy efficiency. This latest volume in the acclaimed Energy Policy Studies series brings together an interdisciplinary group of researchers to examine the relationship between energy and planning policy, with emphasis on urban and regional impacts. Like other volumes in the series, the articles included focus on the social, political, and economic dimensions of energy technology, resources, and use. The emphasis on issues of technological scale, resource allocation, environmental impact and quality, and urban and regional studies makes this a unique contribution to the literature. Contents: "Creating Land-Energy Transitions," by Andrew F. Huston, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development; "Land Use Planning for Energy Efficiency," by Susan E. Owens, Cambridge University; "Nuclear Waste Landscapes," by Barry Solomon, U.S. Energy Information Administration; "Economic Development, Growth and Land Use Planning in Oil and Gas Producing Regions," by Robert L. Mansell, University of Calgary; "The Land Use Focus of Energy Impacts," by M. J. Pasqualetti, Arizona State University; "Energy Use and Land Use," by Stephen Lonergan, McMaster University; and a concluding essay by J. Barry Cullingworth, University of Delaware.

Book Synopsis Assessing the Feasibility of Solar Residential Development in Austin, Texas by : Mark Hamilton Zion
Download or read book Assessing the Feasibility of Solar Residential Development in Austin, Texas written by Mark Hamilton Zion and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is the goal of this report to make a preliminary examination of the issues determining the feasibility of residential development in Austin, Texas using solar and renewable resources. The question addressed here is, if one had the inclination and the means to develop a solar residential subdivision in Austin, what are the institutional, market, and technical frames within which such an endeavor would have to operate. In order to focus on important issues for the prospective solar residential developer, several existing planned solar developments have been surveyed, and the experiences of the developers, builders, and purchasers have been reviewed. It appears that the potential of solar residential development hinges on the feasibility and acceptance of renewables in four major contexts. First, to be successful, solar residential development must be technically feasible; that is, the solar and renewable technologies utilized must be technically able to make a significant contribution to residential energy needs, as mitigated by the local environment. To establish this technical feasibility, a prototypical solar home design for the area has been created and analyzed for economic and energy performance. In sum, for minor incremental solar cost, a new Austin home can operate on 65 percent less energy than a conventional home. Major contributions are available from renewables in the areas of space heating (80 percent), space cooling (45 percent), and domestic hot water heating (80 percent). Appropriate siting can also make significant contributions to transportation and land use energy needs. Secondly, the successful solar residential development must have appeal within the Austin area housing market. Market feasibility has been addressed through the development of a list of characteristics of the potential solar homebuyer, and through an examination of the future housing market in Austin. When the needs and desires of the prospective solar homebuyer are compared to the character of anticipated Austin housing demand, it is apparent that over seventy percent of the new single-family owner-occupied homes to be demanded in Austin from 1980 to 1985 are well-matched with the probable solar purchaser. Solar housing is technically feasible and marketable in Austin, however, the attitudes and actions of major social institutions will ultimately determine the success of any solar development effort. Such a venture must be acceptable within the lending community which will provide its financing, and within the public sector which must have either a positive or negative impact on solar development. Lenders in general have a positive attitude toward solar, and if the solar development project is presented in the proper financial context, money should be available for both construction financing and homeowner mortgages. Public policies at the local, state, and federal levels do not present major barriers to solar residential development in Austin. However, the incentives for renewables and energy conservation offered by public policy are still in a preliminary phase and need to be strengthened and refined if these technologies are to be widely diffused. Thus, this report will examine (1) the institutional feasibility of solar residential development in relation to the lending community and the public sector, (2) the feasibility of solar penetration into the future Austin housing market, and (3) the technical feasibility of solar and renewable residential energy systems. These issues will be addressed in that order, and in conclusion, an examination of the implications of solar residential development for regional energy use, for public policy, for public awareness, and for public ethics will be made"--Leaves 6-8
