The document compares four types of power plants: steam, hydro, diesel, and nuclear. It discusses their initial costs, running costs, location requirements, efficiencies, fuel sources, emissions, maintenance costs, transmission costs, and starting times. Steam power plants have lower initial costs but higher running costs than hydro and nuclear. Hydro plants require large spaces for dams but have very low running costs. Nuclear plants have the highest initial costs due to complex reactors but low fuel and operating costs. Diesel plants can be located anywhere but have the highest fuel costs.
Wind Turbines: Will they ever become economically feasible? Jeffrey Funk
The cost electricity from wind turbines is still too for most situations and the cost of electricity has fallen very slowly over the last 30 years (about 2% a year). Even worse, the costs have risen over the last two years. These slides show that the falling costs of electricity from wind turbines are primarily from increases in the scale of wind turbines and that the recent increases are probably from increasing the scale of the rotor diameter too much. Increases in the rotor diameter and the height of towers have directly and indirectly led to reductions in the cost of electricity from wind turbines. They have directly led to reductions in cost because the output of a wind turbine is a function of diameter squared and they indirectly led to reductions in cost because output is a function of wind speed cubed and larger wind turbines can handle higher wind speeds. The major challenge for further increasing the scale of wind turbines is finding materials for the turbine blades that have higher strength to weight ratios. Finally, several new wind turbine designs may also lead to lower costs of electricity from wind turbines.

Lattice Energy LLC - LENR technologys compelling value proposition for oil an...Lewis Larsen
LENRs offer a compelling future value proposition for oil & gas companies. Technology of ultralow energy neutron reactions (LENRs) could enable conversion of aromatics derived from crude oil and natural gas into nanoparticulate LENR fuels with energy densities that are 5,000x greater than gasoline.
Achievement of this unprecedented capability could vastly increase performance of customers’ power generation systems as well as enable the rapid future development of many types of revolutionary products suitable for array of key consumer and military markets.
LENR technology could also stretch useful economic lifetimes of today’s remaining in-ground supplies of oil & gas from British Petroleum's 2016 estimate of < 53 years out to at least another 25,000 years further into far future.
This paper deals with a new technology by which water can be used as a fuel. Price of Petroleum oils
are increases day-by-day, affecting the lifestyle of common people as well as the national economy. Hence it is
necessary to have alternative for petroleum oil. Water can be used as a fuel in the form of Brown’s Gas, so we
have a plan to produce a Generator which works on Brown’s Gas which is obtained by the electrolysis of water. It
will be a unique type of Generator so it has huge market potential. Now–a-days every country spends a lot of
money on research and development on non-conventional energy resources. In world, the conventional energy
sources are limited and their consumption is very high, so alternative sources of energy have tremendous
potential in future. Nobody will think for a moment but it is reality that water can be used as electricity producing
agent, and hence as an energy resources. It is good news for environmentalists as It is made from water,
depending upon the set-up; it burns into combustion engine and releases oxygen into atmosphere. This method
increases the oxygen content in the atmosphere, which helps to solve environment degradation. Hence, this new
successful technology can be called as Green technology. Since Electricity is one of the important energy
resources. It is available at very limited places and consumption is much more. This causes war for electricity
which is not new for civilization but by this technology war can be overcome or may be ended soo n
Solar photovoltaic thermal (PV/t) parabolic trough collector systemManav Shah
This system consists of concentrating parabolic trough collector to magnify the solar radiation onto the focal point where absorber tube has been placed. Working fluid such as water is passed from the tube with the help of pump. In order to increase the overall efficiency of the system, photovoltaic cells are placed on the absorber tube so that hot water and electricity can be produced from one integrated system.
Current status of Wells Turbine for Wave Energy Conversionijsrd.com
The method of wave energy conversion utilizes an oscillating water column (OWC). The OWC converts wave energy into low-pressure pneumatic energy in the form of bi-directional airflow. Wells has been used to convert this pneumatic power into uni-directional mechanical shaft power. But a Wells turbine has inherent disadvantages like lower efficiency and poorer starting characteristics. This paper provides current status of wells turbine and reviews various researches done to improve starting and running characteristics of wells turbine.

* We have a technology called the VIRTUAL PIPELINE TECHNOLOGY (VPT) - captures flared gas, stranded gas, associate gas (dry or wet - explained in the slide) at any given pressure, processes it, transport and supply the gas at the preferred discharge pressure. Our tubes carries a minimum of 550mscf (could carry more if the road is good and can take the weight). It can also pick up gas from existing pipelines and deliver gas to pipeline disconnected areas.
* Modular Power Plant (minimum of 1.5MW) and can be co-generated (power and steam/hot water).
INSIGHT: building a gigantic MW plants that will take 4 - 5 years to achieve also not considering where the source of feedstock is has been a major problem in West Africa.
Meanwhile, TEI can build modular plants (1.5MW each) 6MW plants + VPT within 6 - 9 months and could have 100 different locations (600MW) over a period of time serving numerous locations, and make the return on your investments within a year or 16 - 18 months as the case may be (depending on the distance from feedstock and discharge pressure) yet achieving the same purpose (or even more) in a significant less amount of time as any stand alone 500MW which will just be concluded in the 4th or 5th year talk less of when the breakeven point will be.
Also, if one station goes out, it does not affect the other 99 plants/stations hence providing light/electricity to a wider range. Another better advantage of our VPT and modular plants and why we are better than any product on earth as of today. So robust, you can deploy in the rural areas.
* Modular Gas Storage - For contingent supplies, we can build modular storage facility (such as a farm tanks) with storage capacity of 7.5mmscf/d and could increase in the same module. It is very scalable in that, other than the fact that we can move it from a location to another, we could also convert the modules to a gas transportation/supply cylinders attached to trucks.
* Modular Gas Separator - used to extract by-products of natural gas in small quantities. Methane to power turbines, Propane for cooking, Butane, LNG, etc. are other by-products we can help monitize...
These are reasons why we are a SOLUTION to the Gas, Power and Energy sectors and looking forward to providing a solution to the existing problems.....

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.
