| Popis: |
The study of energy and its relationship to the environment is now critical due to its effect on the quality of present and future life. The need to reduce greenhouse gases to combat climate change implies an increasing use of non-renewable sources of energy. This article aims to evaluate the possibility of replacing fossil fuels by renewable sources of energy in a residential building in Chalus, an Iranian city with a high potential for using on-site sources of energy. This study first investigates the annual operating energy used by households in Chalus. To do this, the type of appliances and average time of their use, including heaters and air conditioning units, is extracted from official reports together with a local field study. The ability of renewable on-site sources of energy to supply this load is calculated by considering the specific characteristics of the region. The result shows these sources have the potential to provide approximately 98% of the annual energy the household consumes. |
