Abstract: Being a technology driven company, Siemens has always tried to implement new technologies in its processes to bring down cost, optimize time schedule and ultimately bringing more value to the customer.
BIM is a new methodology for project execution and though there are a few applications for infrastructure projects, it has never been taken on-board in the scale and details of large businesses like power plant solution projects. This is where Siemens is taking on the challenge of not only developing a business model for the same, but also preparing the digital world for a refreshingly new execution philosophy that keeps up with the company's fast-track and futuristic ambitions of enabling the Energy sector with the depth of digital learnings to serve the Customer First approach.

Abstract: Smart cities are not just about technology but also about transformation. With urban areas getting crowded each day, development of self-sustaining cities appears to be an alternate solution to this problem. Technology plays a vital role in self-sustaining cities. These cities enable automation and real time intergrated city monitoring and management through a network of sensors, cameras, wireless devices and data centers.

Abstract: August is usually a tense time for farmers in Bihar, India. Having sown crops in July, they eagerly await the arrival of rains to sustain them. But Bihar is a flood-prone state. All too often, heavy rains cause floods that wash away crops, leaving farmers with no food no produce to sell to earn a living.

Abstract: 2015 Pew Research study found that roughly eight in ten Americans shop online. With this figure edging 80% of the population and rising, businesses must begin taking for granted the fact that real businesses growth today is a far riskier proposition than 20 years ago. It is not enough for company to rest on its brand's laurels and head straight to market. Consumers are being offered products that are custom tailored to their specific needs, and sometimes even meet them right at their doorstep. With services like Blue Apron and Amazon catering successfully to a demanding and fickle buyer, retailers offering the traditional brick-and-mortar interface must be certain they are hanging out their shingles in exactly the right place with the right layout.

Abstract: Interviewer: What is the importance of geospatial technology in Digital India?
Vinit Goenka: Geospatial technology gives details up to granular levels and hence the decision makers, planners and architects all benefit through the technology. It brings in sped because you can forecast, foresee and preconceive the challenges which are going to come in way, and that eliminates chances of error and delay. Transparency is also achieved because decision making and calculations of cost can be done better. This is going to be a technology of tomorrow.

Abstract: Interviewer: With advancements in technology, and at a time when data and information is more important than valor to win a war, do you think the role of DGIS has changed over the years?
Lt. Gen. Anil Kapoor VSM: The role of Directorate General of Information of System is to realize the Net centricity vision of the Indian Army through synergized implementation of all Information System Projects. As part of this charter, the directorate is on a fast track to transform the Indian Army into a fully net centric force by end of 13th Plan. However, challenges do arise because of disruptions and emergence of new technologies. The DGIS is fast adapting to these challenges by carrying out internal resconstructuring of the organization. Agility is an important criterion required to overcome the disruption that are taking place in technological space. We at DGIS are striving to become more agile in our approach while developing and fielding Info systems. The directorate is constantly embracing new technologies to further improve the situational awareness and enhance the decision-making of the Commanders.

Abstract: A push notification sounds the alarm: two wind turbines are standing idle. A glance at the smartphone screen reassures the technician that a mulfunction is not to blame-it's just that the wind has dropped. He can now return his attention to the task at hand: inspecting another turbine. The app tells him a crack recently appeared in the tower foundation.

The lovingly preserved Necar 1 is now on display are the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart. Back then, it took a modified delivery van to house the fuel cell unit and bulky high-pressure hydrogen tank. When the gas was brought into contact with oxygen, water was formed, and enough electrical energy was released to propel the Necar to a maximum speed of 90 km/h.

Abstract: The hundreds of wind turbines spinning in the generally stiff breeze that sweeps across the North Sea area a reliable source of electricity. From 2026, offshore farms with a combined capacity of 900 megawatts (MW) could help propel Germany towards a hydrogen economy, according to a strategy outlined in a recent study commissioned by Siemens, grid operator Tennet and Shell Germany that contemplates ramping up the expansion of offshore wind beyond the current target of 15 gigawatts (GW) by 2030.

Abstract: Activists in tree houses, police evictions, mass demonstrations against the coal industry: Hambach Forest in the Rhineland region has become a symbol of the protests against lignite-based electricity in Germany. Polls indicate that most Germans favour a rapid departure from coal. What is more, four fifths approve of a plan devised by Greenpeace Energy to buy the lignite assets of energy giant RWE with the goal of decommissioning them and repurposing the former mining areas as wind and solar farms.

Abstract: In a very short time, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has become a world-wide household name. The 29-year-old New Yorker, who took up a seat in the House of Representatives at the start of this year, has emerged as an icon of the 'new America': young women from immigrant backgrounds like her have made the Damocrat-controlled House of Representatives younger, more female and more diverse. This role-along with her surprise victory in the primary against a high-ranking member of the Democratic establishment-has elevated Ocasio-Cortez to the status of star and media darling.

Abstract: German wind power is booming .In 2017, more new turbines were installed than ever before:1,792 machines with a combined capacity of 5,333 megawatts (MW) -a new record.
Of course, these turbines do not run by themselves. In order to keep electricity output as high as possible, besides plant managers wind farms also rely on service technicians. These are the mechanics who travel to the turbines to do the hands-on work: checking components, greasing bearings or rapairing damage. With a turbine fleet of 28,675 (and counting) all over the country, this is no small task.

Abstract: The green light for one of the most far-reaching decisions in the arena of international climate action was a prosaic affair: in a videoconference with the relevant ministries and the 31 provinces held on 19 December 2017, the Chinese government announced its intention to put a price on carbon emissions. Under the national emissions trading scheme envisaged in the plants, in 2019 some 1,700 energy companies will start paying for their emissions and trading the associated certificates.
