Energy consumption and the use of thermal insulating materials. A comparative analysis on the tendencies over the time; Consumo de energia y uso de aislamientos termicos - un analisis comparativo de tendencias en el tiempo

Abstract

Through the observations and comparisons conducted on the behavior of change tendencies of population growth, Gross Internal Product and energy consumption, one can analyze if the energy saving tendencies in Mexico are positive and similar to the tendencies in the consumption of thermal insulating materials and similar to other countries figures. The analysis of these figures allows US to detect if the energy saving efforts can be correlated with the consumption of thermal insulating materials and with the standard of living of a country (determined by its per capita income) and establish a future performance index of energy conservation for the adequate utilization o insulating materials of economical thickness. The index proposed in this paper serves this purpose and yields interesting results. Along recent years and as a result of the industrialization level and way of living in Mexico, the energy consumption has increased in a higher rate than the population growth, based on 1980 figures. In this same period, the gross internal product per capita has also increased in a slightly lower rate to the population growth. This means that the figure for Energy Intensity, defined as the rate of energy consumption over the gross internal product, has slightly  More>>

The analysis of these figures allows US to detect if the energy saving efforts can be correlated with the consumption of thermal insulating materials and with the standard of living of a country (determined by its per capita income) and establish a future performance index of energy conservation for the adequate utilization o insulating materials of economical thickness. The index proposed in this paper serves this purpose and yields interesting results. Along recent years and as a result of the industrialization level and way of living in Mexico, the energy consumption has increased in a higher rate than the population growth, based on 1980 figures. In this same period, the gross internal product per capita has also increased in a slightly lower rate to the population growth. This means that the figure for Energy Intensity, defined as the rate of energy consumption over the gross internal product, has slightly increased in the same period accounted for, meaning that the country has become more inefficient in recent years. At the same time, the production capacity of thermal insulating materials has remained constant since 1980 until early 1994. This compares unfavorably with all the developed countries, in which the energy intensity has diminished considerably in the last years, while the thermal insulating materials rate has augmented at a rhythm of similar proportions. [Espanol] A base de realizar observaciones y comparaciones del comportamiento de las tendencias de cambio en crecimiento poblacional, Producto Interno Bruto y consumo de energia, se puede analizar si las tendencias de ahorro de energia en Mexico son positivas y son semejantes a las tendencias en el consumo de aislamientos termicos y a cifras semejantes de otros paises. El analisis de estas cifras nos permiten detectar si se pueden correlacionar los esfuerzos de ahorro de energia con el consumo de aislamientos termicos y con el nivel de vida de un pais (determinado por su ingreso per capita), y establecer un indice futuro de efectividad de conservacion de energia por el uso adecuado de materiales de espesor economico. El indice propuesto en esta ponencia sirve este proposito y nos arroja resultados interesantes. A lo largo de los anos recientes y como resultado del cambio en el nivel de industrializacion y de vida en Mexico, el consumo de energeticos ha aumentado en proporcion mayor al crecimiento de poblacion, tomando como base las cifras de 1980. En ese mismo periodo, el producto interno bruto per capita ha aumentado en proporcion tambien ligeramente menor al crecimiento poblacional. Esto significa que la cifra de Intensidad Energetica, definida como la proporcion de consumo de energeticos sobre el producto interno bruto, ha aumentado ligeramente en el mismo periodo en consideracion, significando que el pais se ha vuelto mas ineficiente en anos recientes. Al mismo tiempo, la capacidad de produccion de materiales aislantes termicos ha permanecido constante desde 1980 hasta principios de 1994. Esto compara desfavorablemente con todos los paises desarrollados, en los cuales la intensidad energetica ha disminuido considerablemente en los ultimos anos, al tiempo que la produccion de materiales aislantes termicos ha crecido a un ritmo de proporciones semejantes.}
