Addendum to Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities
(IOP Publishing, 2018)
This addendum adds to the analysis presented in Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities Abadie et al (2017 Environ. Res. Lett . 12 [https://doi.org/10.1088 ...
Evaluation of Two Alternative Carbon Capture and Storage Technologies: A Stochastic Model
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2013-03-03)
In this paper we evaluate two alternative CCS technologies of a coal-fired power plant from an investor’s point of view. The first technology uses CO2 for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) paired with storage in deep saline ...
Economic Efficiency, Environmental Effectiveness and Political Feasibility of Energy Efficiency Rebates: The Case of the Spanish Energy Efficiency 'Renove' Plan
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2013-02-02)
Energy labels are used to promote the purchase of efficient appliances. Many countries in Europe use subsidies (namely energy efficiency rebates) to support these purchases as it is the case of Spain. A figure ranging from ...
The Determinants of Energy Efficiency Investments in the U.S.
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2010-11-08)
This paper analyses decisions on energy efficiency (EE) investments by small and medium manufacturing enterprises in the U.S. which have received assessment from the Department of Energy (DoE). The results confirm the ...
Evaluation of two alternative carbon capture and storage technologies
(Basque Centre for Climate Change/Klima Aldaketa Ikergai, 2013-05-16)
* Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) is one of the technologies for fighting climate change in the future. The use of CO2 for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) paired with storage in deep saline formations (DSF) could ...
Climate Risk Assessment under Uncertainty: An Application to Main European Coastal Cities
(Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016-12-16)
This paper analyses the risk of extreme coastal events in major European coastal cities using a stochastic diffusion model that is calibrated with the worst case emission scenario from the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate ...
Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities
(Environmental Research Letters, 2017-01-17)
A quantification of present and future mean annual losses due to extreme coastal events can be crucial for adequate decision making on adaptation to climate change in coastal areas around the globe. However, this approach ...
