Decarbonization of Domestic Hot Water Generation Lab

This video from the CREATE National Energy Center features a presentation by James Horst, faculty at Delaware Technical Community College. Horst outlines a laboratory activity in which students test hot water generation with a gas stove, electric resistance, and a heat pump, comparing the carbon emissions of each hot water generation technique. This activity is designed to engage students in a conversation about the environmental impact of everyday activities and steps that can be taken to reduce that impact. This video provides a step-by-step overview of how to facilitate this activity, including required materials and learning outcomes.

The video runs 00:24:08 minutes in length.
