- Question 6 Compare the carbon emissions per MJ to heat household water using the following two energy systems: a) A 25% efficient coal-fired power plant delivering electricity to a 99% efficient electric water heater. Assume LHV carbon intensity of coal is 25.8 gC/MJ. b) A new 50% efficient natural gas-fired combined cycle power plant to a 99% efficient electric water heater. You must calculate the LHV carbon intensity of natural gas. Assume 100% methane and ideal conditions. Assume 5% losses in electrical transmission lines and 90 MJ of fuel input to each system.arrow_forwardOn a windy day, a camper feels colder as compared to a day at the same temperature when there is no wind.
