Abstract: At present most of our energy demand is met by conventional fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas. But these are available in limited quantities. It is estimated that we could consume all the oil in about 40 years and the natural gas soon after. However, coal is available in plenty, but its extraction is not as per demand. The other problem with fossil fuels is environmental. After combustion, they emit carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, which causes global warming. They also release many other harmful by-products that pollute the environment.

Abstract: Scientific Automation from Beckhoff represents a combination of high performance Industrial or Embedded PCs, the highly deterministic EtherCAT fieldbus system and intelligent software. These components are also required for automating modern wind turbines. Wind turbine manufactures want to use the same system for control tasks, monitoring, grid synchronization and system-wide communication. Just thinking of the complex Condition Monitoring algorithms which are to be processed on the controller, it becomes clear that it makes sense to use multicore CPUs.

Subject: Electrical India
Keywords: Appraisal, Centralised, Decentralised, Energy, Systems.
Abstract: Grid systems based on centralized electricity generation has posed serious challenges to the environment, as well as to the economy. These systems have failed to electrify every household in the country due to technical and economical non-feasibility apart from higher transmission and distribution losses. In this context, Distributed Generation (DG) has been playing a prominent role in the regional development, as well as electrification of remote villages. D G optimally harvests locally available renewable energy sources and integrates with the grid. Regional Integrated Energy Plan (RIEP) based on decentralized energy systems optimizes share of available resources while ensuring reliable energy supply. Spatial assessment of renewable energy sources aids in effective planning to meet the energy demand at local levels. An optimal energy plan based on renewable energy sources mitigates GHG emissions, while providing reliable energy to all citizens in India.

Abstract: Modern organizations depend on reliable access to data. They increasingly expect their data to be available from any location across a wide range of devices. Access needs to be fast, reliable, and secure. Meeting these needs has led to tremendous growth of data centres. Data centre growth is driven by increasing requirements from Banking. Financial Sector & Insurance, IT & ITES, Telecom and social media. Aggressive government policies such as National Informatics Centre (NIC), State Wide Area Network (SWAN), Common Service Centre (CSC), State Data Centre (SDC) to increase the digitalization of records have also aided to the data centre growth.

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.

Keywords: Measuring, Specific, Atom ' s Move, Dielectric, Materials.
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.

Keywords: Netherlands, Doubles, use, Geothermal Energy.
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).
