Analysis of Off-Grid, Off-Pipe Housing for Hot-Humid and Hot-Arid Climates
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
This paper investigates the feasibility of off-grid, off-pipe housing in hot-humid and hot-arid climates in the U.S. The study aims to eliminate the need for non-renewable sources of energy and municipal water in residences ...
Validation of the eCALC Commercial Code-Compliant Simulation Versus Measured Data from an Office Building in a Hot and Humid Climate
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
This paper compares the results of a calibrated simulation of a case-study building versus simulation using the web-based eCALC code-compliant commercial simulation program (Haberl et al., 2004). Previously, as-built ...
Analysis of Emissions Calculators for the National Center of Excellence on Displaced Emission Reductions (CEDER)- 2008 Annual Report to the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-02)
In August 2004, the USEPA issued guidance on quantifying the air emission benefits from electric sector
energy efficiency and renewable energy. Because there was no clear best strategy, the EPA’s guidance
provided a ...
Development of a Residential Code-compliant Web-based Energy Efficiency Calculator for Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-12)
Since 2001, Texas has been proactive in initiating clean air and energy efficiency-in buildings policies. The Texas Emissions Reduction Plan legislation of 2001 mandated statewide adoption of energy codes; created a 5% ...
Calculation of Nox Emissions Reductions from Energy Efficient Residential Building Construction in Texas
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2004)
Four areas in Texas have been designated by the United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) as non-attainment areas because ozone pollution levels exceed the National Ambient Air
Quality Standard (NAAQS) maximum ...
