Country-level energy demand for cooling has increased over the past two decades
E. Scoccimarro, O. Cattaneo, et al.
Discover how energy demand for cooling has transformed over the past two decades, revealing alarming trends in cooling degree days (CDDs) worldwide. Conducted by a team from the Fondazione Centro Euro-Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici (CMCC) and the International Energy Agency (IEA), this research highlights the pressing need for sustainable cooling solutions, especially in emerging countries where humidity amplifies energy use.
