claimCountries with large coal and oil reserves may reduce their carbon footprint by increasing the share of natural gas and investing in efficient technologies like cogeneration and clean coal technology.
claimDecentralized generation increases local energy production and encourages cogeneration and trigeneration from renewable energy sources, requiring grid modernization to absorb small producers and enable two-way communication between consumers and producers.
claimDiesel and petrol can supply limited power and fuel through the application of efficient generation methods like cogeneration and blending.
claimThe carbon footprint of fossil fuels used in power generation can be minimized by adopting efficient conversion technologies such as cogeneration and trigeneration, which reduce fuel consumption and maximize generation from limited energy resources.
claimStrategies for exploiting renewable energy resources include on-site power generation (such as building-integrated photovoltaic panels, farm-based biogas plants, and geothermal heat pumps), combined heat and power (cogeneration), and energy saving and efficiency measures.
claimSustainable energy transition strategies include the electrification of thermal applications and households, the implementation of smart grids, energy storage for variable renewables, carbon capture and sequestration, cogeneration, and energy efficiency measures to limit consumption and wastage.
claimFuel cells are more efficient than combustion systems and can increase overall efficiency through cogeneration by utilizing the heat generated during power production for thermal applications.
