Task 3 International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9060:2018 Related to Solar Energy Outlines the specification and classification of instruments for measuring hemispherical solar and direct solar radiation such as pyranometers and pyrheliometers. 22 https://www.iso.org/standard/67464.html
Task 3 A pyranometer is a sensor that converts the global solar radiation it receives into an electrical signal that can be measured. Pyranometers measure a portion of the solar spectrum. As an example, the CMP21 pyranometer measures wavelengths from 0.285 to 2.8 m, and measures radiant flux in W/m2. m is the symbol for micrometer, a System International (SI) unit of length equal to 10^-6 meters or 1 millionth of a meter. Tiny! 23 www.hukseflux.com
Task 3 A pyrheliometer is a device that measures solar irradiance coming directly from the sun. The SI units of irradiance are watts per square metre (W/m ). Pyrheliometershave been historically used for climate data, but in recent years it is used to measure irradiance related to solar generation systems. Why would these tools be used to measure global solar radiation and solar irradiance in an AES? 24 www.hukseflux.com

Task 3 The Advanced Energy Design Guides (AEDGs) series from The United States Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) provides design guidance for buildings that use 50% less energy than those built to the requirements of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/American Society of Heating Refrigeration and Airconditioning Engineers (ASHRAE)/Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) Standard 90.1- 2004 commercial code and are specific to prominent building types across each of the eight U.S. climate zones. 26 https://www.ashrae.org/technical-resources/aedgs

Task 3 International Green Construction Code (IgCC) The 2018International Green Construction Code is an adoptable, usable and enforceable standard for green building design and construction. As a co-sponsor, USGBC encourages the widespread adoption of the 2018-IgCC. Within jurisdictions that adopt the new green code, USGBC will allow projects pursuing LEED certification to be recognized for their compliance to select IgCC measures.

Task 3 International Green Construction Code (IgCC) Buildings account for over 12% of water use, 40% of CO2 emissions, 65% of all waste outputs, and more than 70% of electricity consumption. The organizations believe green buildings offer solutions to many of these problems by conserving resources, regenerating sites, and providing economic and societal benefits. Advanced Energy System design can achieve all of these goals! 33 2021.IgCCcodes.iccsafe.org

Task 3 Transport-related emission reduction may not happen uniformly across global regions. Developed Countries, Eastern Europe and West Central Asia countries project a decrease from 2020 levels by 2050 across all scenarios Projection is a decrease which will limit global warming to 1.5 C by 2100 Emissions may increase in Africa, Asia and Pacific (APC), Latin America, the Caribbean, and the Middle East in some of these scenarios. {10.7} Grubb.M, et al.(2022).

UNSDGs The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs) 17 (SDGs) are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership. Are focused on ending poverty and other deprivation Must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests. 2022.UNSDG Goals. https://sdgs.un.org/goals 37
UNSDGs Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable Johannesburg Plan of Implementation (JPOI). JPOI provided multiple anchor points for sustainable transport, in the context of infrastructure, public transport systems, goods delivery networks, affordability, efficiency and convenience of transportation, as well as improving urban air quality and health and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. 2022.UNSDGhttps://sdgs.un.org/topics/sustainable-transport. 38

Design Software Leadership in Environmental Engineering Design (LEED) Buildings consume energy and resources at an alarming rate. We can do better. LEED provides a framework for healthy, efficient, carbon and cost-saving green buildings. LEED certification is a globally recognized symbol of sustainability achievement, and it is backed by an entire industry of committed organizations and individuals paving the way for market transformation! 40
