Lecture #9: Energy Efficiency as a tool for mitigating climate change

Johannes lecture

Things to remember:

  • “Energy efficiency improvements on the component level do not necessarily lead to increasing the overall energy efficiency or reducing the environmental impact” (Johannes Morfeldt, 2012).
  • “Defining a larger system boundary show the total impact of the measures and can help identifying additional measures” (Johannes Morfeldt, 2012).

Things to consider:

When discussing efficiency, one should always to consider system’s efficiency versus efficiency of system’s components.

The lecture’s assignment: Write an one page discussion paper from a climate change mitigation perspective answering the following question: Why should a company invest in energy efficiency measures?

Deadline: Friday, 28th Sep.
