2014 UK Future Energy Scenarios - Energy DemandNational Grid
How do the 2014 UK Future Energy Scenarios model future energy demand? Nigel Fox looks at projections for heating, lighting, domestic, industrial and commercial demand.
Community heating provides several economic benefits by reducing costs through economies of scale. As more consumers connect to larger heating systems, fixed costs are shared lowering the average cost per user. It also cuts operating costs by bulk purchasing of fuels at lower rates than household tariffs and using renewable sources which insulates against volatile fossil fuel prices. Government funding and regulations are supporting increased adoption of community heating in the UK and EU to achieve carbon reduction targets in a sustainable and cost effective manner.
Joseph Adelegan: Cows to Kilowatts: Methane Emission from anaerobic digestion...AfricaAdapt
The document discusses a project called "Cows to Kilowatts" which aims to convert slaughterhouse waste from cows into biogas and fertilizer in Ibadan, Nigeria. It would do this through building biogas plants at slaughterhouses. The biogas could then be sold as affordable cooking fuel to urban poor households, providing energy access and health benefits. Additionally, the project would produce organic fertilizer from the waste, reducing pollution. Financial projections estimate the first biogas plant would become self-sustaining within 2 years and provide over $3.5 million in returns over 15 years of operation.
UN-HABITAT is working to promote urban planning as a way to mitigate climate change because well-planned cities provide a better foundation for sustainable development. The UK government aims to make the majority of newly built homes zero-carbon by 2016 by exempting them from stamp duty for a limited time starting this year. However, critics argue this may increase costs and the government has not explained how the goal will be achieved. UN-HABITAT deals with climate change and urban development, including through urban planning, as part of its mandate from the UN.

The role of biomass in the drive to Net-Zero?NNFCC
At the UK Biomass Biorefinery Network (BBNet) Annual Conference 13-15th October 2021, NNFCC's Director and Lead Consultant on Biobased Products, Dr Adrian Higson, gave a presentation:
'The role of biomass in the drive to Net Zero?'
The UK Government aims to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. The Climate Change Committee (CCC) conclude that sustainable biomass can play a significant role in achieving this, providing it is prioritised for the most valuable end-uses.
Carbon offsets represent reductions of carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gas emissions made to compensate for emissions made elsewhere. They allow individuals and organizations to mitigate their carbon footprint by funding projects that prevent emissions, such as renewable energy, energy efficiency, and forestry projects. To be valid offsets, the reductions must be real, additional to what would have occurred otherwise, verified by third parties, and permanent. The Center for Resource Solutions is an organization that works to advance renewable energy and carbon policies and markets through certification programs and conferences.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
