Cloud computing represent a new era of computing that's forms through the combination of service-oriented architecture (SOA), Internet and grid computing with virtualization technology. Virtualization is a concept through which every cloud is enable to provide on-demand services to the users. Most IT service provider adopt cloud based services for their users to meet the high demand of computation, as it is most flexible, reliable and scalable technology. Energy based performance tradeoff become the main challenge in cloud computing, as its acceptance and popularity increases day by day. Cloud data centers required a huge amount of power supply to the virtualization of servers for maintain on- demand high computing. High power demand increase the energy cost of service providers as well as it also harm the environment through the emission of CO₂. An optimization of cloud computing based on energy-performance tradeoff is required to obtain the balance between energy saving and QoS (quality of services) policies of cloud. A study about power usage of resources in cloud data centers based on workload assign to them, says that an idle server consume near about 50% of its peak utilization power [1]. Therefore, more number of underutilized servers in any cloud data center is responsible to reduce the energy performance tradeoff. To handle this issue, a lots of research proposed as energy efficient algorithms for minimize the consumption of energy and also maintain the SLA (service level agreement) at a satisfactory level. VM (virtual machine) consolidation is one such technique that ensured about the balance of energy based SLA. In the scope of this paper, we explore reinforcement with fuzzy logic (RFL) for VM consolidation to achieve energy based SLA. In this proposed RFL based active VM consolidation, the primary objective is to manage physical server (PS) nodes in order to avoid over-utilized and under-utilized, and to optimize the placement of VMs. A dynamic threshold (based on RFL) is proposed for over-utilized PS detection. For over-utilized PS, a VM selection policy based on fuzzy logic is proposed, which selects VM for migration to maintain the balance of SLA. Additionally, it incorporate VM placement policy through categorization of non-overutilized servers as- balanced, under-utilized and critical. CloudSim toolkit is used to simulate the proposed work on real-world work load traces of CoMon Project define by PlanetLab. Simulation results shows that the proposed policies is most energy efficient compared to others in terms of reduction in both electricity usage and SLA violation.

Pakistan is a developing country whose maximum amount of mixed energy is provided by electricity, oil, coal, and gas. The study objective is to analyze the six major social factors to describe the significance of nuclear energy and CO₂ emissions at the decisive point coming from income, trade, energy, and urbanization. This study has tried to analyze the impact of different factors (i.e., fossil energy, GDP per capita, overall population, urban population, and merchandise trade) on Pakistan's CO₂ emissions using the extended STRIPAT model from 1986 to 2021. Ridge regression has been applied to analyze the parameters due to the multicollinearity problem in the data. The results show that (i) all the factors show significant results on carbon emissions; (ii) population and energy factors are the huge contributors to raising CO₂ emissions by 0.15% and 0.16%; however, merchandise and GDP per capita are the least contributing factors by 0.12% and 0.13% due to import/export and income level in Pakistan, and (iii) nuclear energy and substitute overall show a prominent and growing impact on CO₂ emissions by 0.16% and 0.15% in Pakistan. Finally, empirical results have wider applications for energy-saving, energy substitution, capital investment, and CO₂ emissions mitigation policies in developing countries. Moreover, by investigating renewable energy technologies and renewable energy sources, insights are provided on future CO₂ emissions reduction.

Due to the international environmental regulations and changes in policies, the demand for generators using the renewable energy is increasing. However, renewable energy generators with intermittent output characteristics such as solar and wind power generators, need the buffer facilities such as ESS during system operations. However, because of low price competitiveness in energy storage system, it is difficult to operate the renewable energy generator with ESS. Therefore, the government has recently proposed a policy to compensate the REC for renewable energy system with ESS. For all this, since the initial cost of the ESS is high, it is the most important to calculate and operate the optimal capacity of the ESS through an economic analysis. In this paper, we proposed the method of calculation the optimal capacity of ESS and analyzed economic feasibility of renewable energy system using the ESS according to depreciation in ESS price.

Recently, as carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions have increased overall and contributed to air pollution, and awareness of environmental degradation has grown. This study examines the impacts and causalities of economic globalization, economic growth, energy consumption, and capital formation on CO₂ emissions in China over the period 1971-2014. The vector error correction model (VECM) and Granger causality test on time-series data are employed to observe the interactions between CO₂ emission, economic globalization, and various economic factors, including economic growth, energy consumption, and capital formation, since China's early stage of globalization. The empirical results indicate the existence of bidirectional causalities from economic growth, gross capital formation, economic globalization, and CO₂ emission to energy consumption, and bidirectional casualty from energy consumption to CO₂ emission relationships in the short run. The findings of this study suggest that indirect bidirectional causalities from economic growth, economic globalization, and capital formation to CO₂ emission through energy consumption are observed. Moreover, economic globalization accelerates CO₂ emission in the short run but decreases it in the long run. To reduce CO₂ emissions, and to ensure sustainable economic growth and economic globalization progress, some crucial energy-saving and energy-efficiency policies, regulatory rules, and laws are recommended.

Concerning Korean energy consumption, 20% of the total electrical energy (96% is now exported) is consumed in lighting area. Accordingly, it is one of the most important governmental policies to efficiently utilize electricity due to development and application of high-efficiency lighting equipment. In Korea, widely-built traffic signals employ an incandescent and are of 100W/300 mm, and 280,080set/801,932lamps have been installed and operated by 1999. Of them, 58%(161,181set), 25%(69,655set) and 18%(49,244set) correspond to traffic signals, pedestrian signals and other supplementary signals respectively. It was estimated that electrical energy consumed 28MW instantaneously, 245GWH annually. On the other hand, the LED traffic signal is expected to be a future traffic signal since if traffic signals are replaced by LEDs, energy saving effect of 85% and drop of 75% in maintenance fee will be obtained. In this paper, the performance and characteristics of many LED traffic signals made in Korea are summarized in order to reform Korean standard of LED traffic signals.

선진국들은 지구온난화의 영향을 최소화하기 위해 1997년 '교토의정서' 채택이후 온실가스를 줄이기 위한 다양한 정책을 시행하고 있다. 우리나라 역시 2030년 온실가스 감축 목표를 배출전망치(BAU: Business As Usual) 대비 37% 줄이기 위해 산업부문, 수송부문, 건물부문의 에너지 소비량을 감축하여야 한다. 정부에서는 에너지 소비량 감축을 위한 각종 법령 및 행정규칙을 제정하여 시행하고 있으며, 특히 건물부문의 에너지 소비량을 감축하기 위하여 녹색건축물 조성지원법에 따른 '건축물의 에너지절약설계기준'을 시행하고 있다. 실내온도를 $28^{\circ}C$로 유지하기 위해 사용되는 전력량은 벽면녹화 및 옥상녹화 등으로 녹화된 건물이 녹화되어지지 않은 건축물에 비해 평균 30%의 전력사용량의 감소효과가 있다. 이렇듯 조경녹화에 대한 에너지 절감의 효과는 입증되고 있으나, 이러한 입증은 '건축물의 에너지절약설계기준'에 적합한 방법이 아니기에 에너지 절감의 실효성을 가지고 있지 못한다. 조경용 녹화가 에너지 절감에 따른 실효성을 가지려면 '녹색건축물 조성 지원법 제14조'의 '건축물의 에너지절약 설계기준'의 단열재료에 대하여 구성재료의 열전도율로 열관류율을 계산하여 '별표 1'의 기준에 적합하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 3종류의 벽면녹화용 식생매트와 1종류의 복합매트(내부단열재+식생매트)를 제작하여 다양한 열전도율 측정 실험을 수행하고, 에너지 보존식을 이용하여 내부단열재 두께 등에 대하여 이론적인 계산을 하였다. 3종류의 식생매트의 열전도율은 0.130~0.157W/mk 정도로서 목재의 열전도율(0.170w/mk)보다 낮아 단열의 기능을 가지는 매트로써 역할을 할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 특히, 복합매트는 내부단열재(그라스포, 폴리우레탄 등)의 두께를 조절하면 '건축물의 에너지절약설계기준의' 단열기준 0.051W/mk에 적합한 식생매트가 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The objectives of the study were to determine 1) energy uses for residential requirements, 2) if energy consumption and adoption of energy conservation attitudes and practices vary with independent variables family size, stage of family life cycle, homemaker's level of education, income, heating system, and number of electrical household items, and 3) if there is a correlation between energy conservation attitudes and practices. Questionnaires were given to the randomly selected homemakers I Seoul in the summer (September, 1979) and the winter (February, 1980). Analysis of variance and correlation were used to analyzed the data which consisted of 537 usable responses of 895 returned in the summer and 554 responses of 794 returned in the winter. The results are as follows: 1) The order of consumption rate of the direct energy uses for residential requirements was found to be heating and air conditioning, cooking, refrigeration, T.V., lighting, and miscellaneous. 2) Energy consumption and adoption of energy conservation attitudes and practices were significantly related to family size, homemaker's level of education, and the stage of family life cycle. (1) Families of five members revealed higher scores in attitudes and practices than families less than five or more than six. (2) The higher the homemaker's level of education, the more energy consumption and the higher scores I attitudes and practices were found. (3) Families in the middle stage of family life cycle tend to use more energy than younger or older families, but their scores in attitudes and practices were high. 3) There was a significant correlation between energy conservation attitudes and practices. However, the scores of the conservation practices were not as good as the attitudes. It may be attributed to either a lack of knowledge and/or financial difficulties, or a dissonance between the concept and implementation of energy conservation. 4) Recommendations for the energy-saving and energy-related public policies are: (1) to use such human resources as attitudes, values, feelings of agreement, and cooperation, as well as nonhuman resources for the energy conservation, (2) to develop a educational program and a creative system I order to implement energy conservation programs, and (3) to consider direct as well as indirect energy uses I selecting goods and services.
