Abstract: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) may be considered as the third wave of revolution in wireless technology. It makes the life of humans more secure, easy and beneficial. A sensor is an electronic device used to detect or measure a physical quantity and convert it into an electronic signal. In a wireless sensor network, sensors play an important part, as sensing is one of its central roles. They sense data from various environments, process the data locally with some computation and communicate the data among the sensor nodes. The most important feature of wireless sensor networks is the elimination of wires in communication. Without wiring requirements, they can be deployed in a range of remote monitoring applications where running wires is prohibitive or impossible.

Abstract: In a power starved country like India, energy conservation has no alternative to save our nation economically and environmentally. Lighting consumes around 17 % of the total energy generated in the country. Thus, the time calls for dropping the antiquated technologies, and embracing the new ones. Under such circumstances, eventually the Indian power companies are bringing different schemes to encourage consumers to switch over to the new LED technology. Now, it is the turn of Tata Power.

Abstract: Researchers from North Carolina State University, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and UNSW Australia have measured the behaviour of specific atoms in dielectric materials when exposed to an electric field. The work advances our understanding of dielectric materials, which are used in wide variety of applications-from handheld electronics to defibrillators.
?Dielectric materials are insulators that can store and manage electric charge. But we hadn ' t yet directly measured how atoms move in dielectric materials in order to store that charge,? says Tedi-Marie Usher, a Ph.D. candidate in materials science and engineering at NC State and Lead Author of a paper on the research work.

Abstract: Micro-supercapacitors are a promising alternative to micro-batteries because of their power and long lifetime. They have been in development for about a decade but until now they have stored considerably less energy than micro-batteries, which has limited their applications.
Now researchers in the Laboratoire d ' analyse et d ' architecture des systems (LAAS-CNRS) in Toulouse and the INRS2 in Quebec have developed an electrode material that means elecrtrochemical capacitors produce results similar to batteries, yet retain their particular advantages.

Abstract: As per a 2011 report of 2011 of International Energy Agency, ?There is potential to achieve at least a tenfold increase in the global production of heat and electricity from geothermal energy-heat emitted from within the earth ' s crust-between now and 2050.? However, owing to multiple reasons, so far worldwide harnessing rate of the geothermal energy is rather slow. Under such circumstances, Netherlands has shown a good progress.
The use of geothermal heat and energy in the Netherlands is increasing continually. Although the share of these new energy sources is still very modest, the production of geothermal heat has more than doubled between 2009 and 2014, according to Statistics Netherlands (CBS).

Abstract: India has been able to fast track its development with support and guidance from the government as well as the rapidly improving economic posture of the country. Needless to say, we are progressing towards development at lightning speed. For development and innovation to continue and grow at a faster rate, there will be a need for continuous energy supply.
The same is true for businesses, because to have 24 X7 access to data, it is vital that they have constant energy supply to function unhindered and efficiently.
The current government is working towards making India a country that provides energy to all. India is today the world ' s third largest producer of electricity generating a capacity of around 256 gigawatts, despite which the country ' s demand for power outstrips supply and per capita consumption of electricity is abysmally low. Consequently, India faces a power deficit situation and hence the demand for alternate sources of energy is increasingly rapidly.

Title: Wind Energy-Concepts, Current and Future Prospects.

Keywords: Wind Energy-concepts, Current, Future, Prospects.
Abstract: Wind power is extracted from air flow using wind turbines or sails to produce mechanical or electrical power. Windmills are used for their mechanical power, wind pumps for water pumping, and sails to propel ships. Wind energy as an alternative to fossil fuels, is plentiful, renewable, widely distributed, clean, produces no greenhouse gas emissions during operation, and uses little land. The net effects on the environment are generally less problematic than those nonrenewable power sources.
Wind power is produced by using wind generators to harness the kinetic energy of wind. It is gaining worldwide popularity as a large scale energy source, although it still only provides less than one percent of global energy consumption. Wind turbines operate on a simple principle. The energy in the wind turns two or three propeller-like blades around a rotor. The rotor is connected to the main shaft, which spins a generator to create electricity. Simply stated, a wind turbine works the opposite of a fan. Instead of using electricity to make wind, like a fan, wind turbines use wind to make electricity. The wind turns the blades, which spin a shaft, which connects to a generator and makes electricity. View the wind turbine animation to see how a wind turbine works or take a look inside.

Abstract: Development of any country is determined by various factors. Among these factors, the amount of electric power consumption is the major factor. India is a developing country, so its corresponding power requirement is also increasing with its development. This demand of electrical power cannot be fulfilled solely by conventional sources, so we need to look for some alternative means to fulfil this surplus amount of power requirement. Due to high depletion rate and increasing cost of conventional fossil fuels, we cannot rely on it completely. Import of fuels is not a best alternative for long run. The country must focus on the sources that are available in abundance and renewable in nature.

Abstract: Energy Management and Environmental Security are the current challenges. Access to reliable electricity for all is one of the key drivers of socio-economic development. However, according to the 2011 Census data, 45 % of Rural Indian Households lack access to electricity supply. The primary reason is power generation lesser than demand. It has been proven time and again that ?Energy Conservation & Energy Efficiency ' is the key to bridge the gap between this Demand and supply.

Abstract: Dams have had serious impacts on the lives, livelihoods, culture and spiritual existence of indigenous, tribal and illiterate people, and on the physical environmental conditions and biodiversity. As far as the dam related development activities in Himachal Himalayas are concerned, they got momentum during 5th five year plan and at present there are more than 400 power projects in five perennial river basins spread over 55, 673 sq.km geographical area. Every basin is being excessively exploited which has a considerable impact on environment and threatening the lives and livelihood of the mountain inhabitants by creating ecological imbalance. The present article is based on the primary research carried out in Ravi basin. There are more than 50 rivulets in the Ravi catchment which have been earmarked for the planned development.
