Angewandte Systemanalyse Band 19: Energy Technology Data Handbook Volume II: End-use technologies

The data documented in Volume I and II of the ENERGY TECHNOLOGY DATA HANDBOOK have been assembled for the "Energy SystemsAnalysis Project" of the International Energy Agency (ZEA) in Paris. The project was intended to support the establishing of IEA's energy research, development and demonstration (RD&D) strategy. The systems analysis work was carried out by a staff consisting of representatives from 15 IEA countries, working jointly at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), USA and at Kernforschungsanlage Jülich (KFA), Germany. $\underline{Volume I}$ of the report includes information about a selection of ENERGY CONVERSION TECHNOLOGIES like fossil, nuclear and renewable power and heating plants, coal gasification, liquefaction and hydrogen production. The technologies are characterized in a standard format following common ground rules and basic assumptions. A technology characterization includes technical, economic and some environmental parameters as well as a short System description and a list of references. $\underline{Volume II}$, END-USE TECHNOLOGIES, is a technical-economic comparison of various Insulation, Space and Water Heating systems for the residential and commercial sector. The technology data were assembled using a variety of sourcesin industry, government agencies, research laboratories and literature. This handbook is certainly not a final characterization of technologies. It should rather be considered as a status report intended as a basis for communication with technical experts and energy analysts, from whom constructive criticism and complementary information would be welcome
