Study Quantifies Rise in Energy Demand as Temperatures Soar
Higher heat stress in Delhi this summer combined with thermal discomfort in poorly designed buildings and increased dependence on air conditioning upset the energy budget. Every degree rise in the heat index resulted in a 187 MW increase in electricity demand.
Study Quantifies Rise in Energy Demand as Temperatures Soar
A study by the Indian Centre for Science and Environment says that if the built environment is not designed for thermal comfort, heat stress will increase cooling demand and use of energy-intensive mechanical cooling systems, potentially undoing the carbon savings from other energy efficiency measures.
