| Summary: | This compendium presents examples and
analyses of space cooling interventions from across the
world (from both developed and developing countries), with
an aim to highlight the key insights learned. Interventions
discussed in the compendium are meant to be options to
inform strategies, implementation mechanisms, and road maps
for countries that are seeking to address and increase
sustainable space cooling. Interventions involve a
combination of actions reducing cooling loads, serving
cooling needs efficiently, and optimizing and controlling
cooling loads. While each country will chart its own pathway
toward sustainable space cooling, the need for a
multipronged approach consistently applies. The best
outcomes will emerge from a multipronged approach that
incorporates information, policy and regulatory measures,
clear leadership, financing and implementation models,
training, and research and development. The objectives of
the primer are to introduce a broad audience, including
practitioners in different fields, to space cooling and to
help initiate and advance sustainable space cooling into
policy discussions and investment considerations in
developing countries. The primer explains the foundational
aspects of space cooling, makes the case that sustainable
space cooling achieved through low-energy and
low-climate-impact pathways is a critical priority, and
emphasizes an integrative approach as essential to
addressing space cooling sustainably. |
