A reverberatory furnace is a furnace that isolates the material being processed (bronze, aluminum, glass, lead, iron, copper ore and steel) from contact with the fuel, but not from contact with combustion gases. The term reverberation is used here in a generic sense of rebounding or reflecting, not in the acoustic sense of echoing.
This is an energy policy which aims to encourage investments in new renewable energy resources by regulating the share of renewables in power generation and requiring that a certain share of electricity generation stem from renewable energy. A renewable portfolio system relies on a market trade mechanism – a cap and trade system similar to that for carbon and thus differs to feed-in tariff. Under the renewable portfolio standards if an independent energy provider cannot provide the green energy, then the state utility has to step in to make up the deficit
Solar architecture integrates elements which passively and/or actively use solar energy and it combines these principles with measures to prevent heat loss. Its goal is either plus zero or low-energy buildings
