Innovation in Energy Security and Long-Term Energy Efficiency
The sustainable development of our planet depends on the use of energy. The growing population of the world inevitably causes an increase in the demand for energy, which, on the one hand, threatens the potential for shortages of energy supply, and, on the other hand, causes the deterioration of the environment.Therefore, our task is to reduce this demand through different innovative solutions (i.e., both technological and social). Social marketing and economic policies can also play a role in affecting the behavior of households and companies, by causing behavioral change oriented to energy stewardship, and an overall switch to renewable energy resources. This book provides a platform for the exchange of a wide range of ideas, which, ultimately, would facilitate the driving of societies to long-term energy efficiency.

What is the efficiency and conversion in a pumped storage power plant?
In a pumped storage power plant, the efficiency refers to the ratio of the electrical energy output to the energy input. Typically, the efficiency of a pumped storage power plant is around 70-80%, which means that it can convert 70-80% of the input energy into electrical energy. The conversion process involves using excess electricity to pump water from a lower reservoir to a higher reservoir, and then releasing the water to generate electricity when needed. This process allows for the storage of energy and the efficient conversion of potential energy into electrical energy.

Do heat pumps with inverter technology require a buffer storage tank?
Heat pumps with inverter technology do not necessarily require a buffer storage tank, as the inverter technology allows the heat pump to modulate its output to match the heating or cooling demand of the building. This means that the heat pump can adjust its capacity based on the building's needs, reducing the need for a buffer storage tank to store excess energy. However, in some cases, a buffer storage tank may still be beneficial to optimize the performance and efficiency of the heat pump system, especially in larger or more complex heating and cooling systems. Ultimately, the need for a buffer storage tank will depend on the specific requirements and design of the heating and cooling system.

What is the difference between primary storage, secondary storage, and tertiary storage?
Primary storage, also known as main memory, is the internal memory of a computer that is directly accessible by the CPU. It is used to store data and instructions that are currently being processed by the CPU. Secondary storage, on the other hand, refers to external storage devices such as hard drives, solid-state drives, and optical discs, which are used to store data for long-term use. Tertiary storage is a type of storage that is used for archival purposes and is typically slower and less accessible than primary and secondary storage. Examples of tertiary storage include magnetic tape and optical jukeboxes.

The Bioeconomy : Institutions, Innovation and Sustainability
The bioeconomy is steadily becoming more important in regional, national and European public policies.As it encompasses the transformation of agricultural, marine and organic resources into food, feed, fuels, energy and materials, the bioeconomy should become a major new industry, outlining the possibility of a post-fossil future.This book is the first attempt to depict the origins, formation and challenges of this new industry in terms of emerging institutions, innovation and economic strategies.The result of this work is that the substitution of raw materials alone is not enough to get out of the fossil economy. This book develops a political economy of the ecological transition which theorizes the transition as a new crisis of capitalism.This phase is characterized by stakeholders’ attempts to develop renewed rationales and strategies to take control of the reorganization of flows of natural resources, their outcomes and their evaluation.The proposed framework considers recent results in four complementary research strands: transition studies, institutional economics, ecological economics and the evolutionary economics of innovation. The book will be of interest to researchers interested in the development of the bioeconomy, and both researchers and students seeking to understand the role of heterodox economics in the ecological transition.
