This book is a collection of research articles and critical review articles, describing the overall approach to energy management. The book emphasizes the technical issues that drive energy efficiency in context of power systems. This book contains case studies with and without solutions on modelling, simulation and optimization techniques. It covers some innovative topics such as medium voltage (MV) back-to-back (BTB) system, cost optimization of a ring frame unit in textile industry, rectenna for radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting, ecology and energy dimension in infrastructural designs, 2.4 kW three-phase inverter for aircraft application, study of automatic generation control (AGC) in a two area hydrothermal power system, energy-efficient and reliable depth-based routing protocol for underwater wireless sensor network, and power line communication using LabVIEW. This book is primarily targeted at researchers and senior graduate students, but is also highly useful for the industry professional and scientists.

The Congressional Record is the official record of the proceedings and debates of the United States Congress. It is published daily when Congress is in session. The Congressional Record began publication in 1873. Debates for sessions prior to 1873 are recorded in The Debates and Proceedings in the Congress of the United States (1789-1824), the Register of Debates in Congress (1824-1837), and the Congressional Globe (1833-1873)

Die Umstrukturierung und Liberalisierung der Stromerzeugung brachte tiefgreifende Veränderungen des Marktes, des Wettbewerbs, der Technologien und nicht zuletzt der gesetzlichen Vorschriften mit sich. Dieser Band konzentriert sich auf die technischen Fortschritte und bespricht derzeit aktuelle Probleme anhand anschaulicher Fallstudien. So werden zum Beispiel neue Verfahren zur Vorhersage der Netzlast erläutert. Von international renommierten Experten geschrieben! (07/00)
