This study analyzed the comprehensive impact of renewable energy investment on carbon
emissions in China. To achieve this, a nonparametric additive regression model was built …

Single cooling and desalination technologies require a high amount of energy to produce
cooling and fresh water, respectively. Coupling these systems seems to be attractive not …

This paper examines the impacts of industrialization and urbanization on CO 2 emissions in
China using nonparametric additive regression models and provincial panel data from 1990 …

Air conditioning adoption is increasing dramatically worldwide as incomes rise and average
temperatures go up. Using daily temperature data from 14,500 weather stations, we rank …

Indian residences are vulnerable to heat-driven discomfort amid the mounting prevalence of
weather extremes, residential design and construction practices, and densifying …

Rising ambient temperatures due to climate change will increase urban populations'
exposures to extreme heat. During hot hours, a key protective adaptation is increased air …

As the tropics and subtropics become increasingly urban, industrial and affluent, energy
demands for thermal comfort may evolve differently than they have historically across the …

How climate change might impact energy demand is not well understood, yet energy
forecasting requires that assumptions be specified. This paper reviews the literature on the …

PM 2.5 emissions not only have serious adverse health effects, but also impede
transportation activities, especially in air and highway transport. As a result, PM 2.5 …

Contrary to" greenhouse effect", climate change might in turn impact energy consumption
due to its influences on usage pattern and purchasing decisions for heating and cooling …
