1. There is a country, which is located in the south of the Mediterranean. This country's GDP is 500 billion USD and the population is 40 million. The total Used Electric Power capacity is 50 GW, the energy mix (electrical energy produced in one year by each primary source) is as follows; Hydro = = 25%, Photovoltaic = 5 %, Wind = 10 %, Natural Gas = %40 and Coal = 20% a) Calculate the produced electrical energy by each primary sources for one year. b) Calculate the electrical energy consumed per capita and compare it with Europe average. c) The Electrical energy is 1/3 of the total energy consumed (TPES) in this country. Obtain the Energy intensity. d) Calculate the total CO₂ emissions in one year while producing electricity.
