Waitrose Innovation Forum Presentation
- Energy efficiency has long been important for protected cropping operations to reduce costs and emissions, but returns on additional efficiency improvements are diminishing.
- New policies like Feed-in Tariffs and the upcoming Renewable Heat Incentive now make investing in renewable energy generation more financially viable compared to only focusing on energy savings.
- Growers should evaluate both energy efficiency upgrades and on-site renewable technology options like biomass boilers to determine the most cost-effective approach based on whole-life cost-benefit analyses and the specific incentives now available.

This document discusses key concepts in science, technology, and innovation. It summarizes Robert Solow's influential growth theory which found that over 80% of economic growth was due to technological change and innovation, not increases in capital and labor. It also summarizes Paul Romer's work which built on Solow by endogenizing technological change, arguing it is driven by profit-seeking researchers and is influenced by the stock of human capital. The document provides context on the relationship between science, technology, and innovation.

Considerations and areas of judgment for accounting professionals
This document provides an introduction to XBRL (eXtensible Business Reporting Language) and discusses potential assurance services accountants could provide related to XBRL. It explains that XBRL is a computer language used to tag financial data for improved reporting, but was not designed with information integrity in mind. Therefore, accountants could provide assurance that XBRL documents properly use tags and match original financial statements. The document outlines two types of reports an accountant could issue and the skills required, such as knowledge of regulations, IT, and XBRL software. It concludes that guidance and user sophistication around XBRL will continue developing.

The mouth watering street foods of India - Padhaaro Travel Blog
India is rich with street foods. Every Indian city has its own speciality in street food. There are so many vendors who are in the street food business for generations and thus they create authentic Indian street food. But when you are coming from outside India where spices are not the main content on the recipe, you should not indulge yourself in Indian street food at once even if they look tempting.

Remodelers are increasingly focusing on energy efficiency but face barriers to promoting it to clients. A study identified remodelers' needs through focus groups, finding clients are often cost-focused and upgrades do not increase home value. Remodelers need tools to educate clients and quantify savings. A survey of remodelers found the top priorities were appraisal values not reflecting efficiency and clients selecting bids based on cost alone. Developing standards and programs were suggested to address remodelers' needs and help more homeowners.

Aumentare le prestazioni dei server in un'azienda vincente
This document discusses the challenges of managing growing data and server infrastructure costs. It notes that power and cooling costs account for half of new infrastructure spending, and maintenance costs are eight times higher than new hardware costs. The document then summarizes Dell's PowerEdge 11G servers, which increased performance per watt by an average of 69% compared to prior generations. Consolidating 184 older servers onto 21 new PowerEdge servers could save an estimated $765,000 over four years, with payback in just eight months. The document also describes Dell tools for measuring and managing server power usage and calculating potential savings.

Phoenix Energy Performance Contracting Presentation
Energy performance contracting (EPC) allows organizations to implement energy efficiency projects through guaranteed savings contracts. An energy services company (ESCO) conducts energy assessments and implements efficiency upgrades like lighting, HVAC, and building envelope improvements. The ESCO guarantees that the energy savings will cover the costs of the project without upfront capital from the client. EPC provides clients capital improvements, utility funding opportunities, guaranteed savings, and other benefits. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development also offers incentives for public housing authorities to pursue EPC through programs like frozen utility baselines and additional operating subsidies. Case studies show EPC projects achieving substantial energy and cost savings.
EWP'S Government Grant Program
The document discusses the Energy Efficient Government Grant Program which provides grants, rebates, and incentives from Congress, states, and utilities to building owners to reduce energy consumption. It notes that qualifying for these grants can be difficult and risky without proper expertise. Energy Watchdog Pro (EWP) helps clients qualify for these programs by performing retrofits, ensuring standards are met, and filling out required documents, allowing clients to reduce energy costs at no cost to themselves. EWP has experience helping various clients qualify and claims to be able to cut lighting energy costs by 40% or more.
Electrical India
Mark Gallant is the Director of Industry Marketing for the Power Industry at Aspen Technology. In an interview with Electrical India, he discusses several points:
1) AspenTech provides software solutions that help process industries optimize operations and achieve business objectives through energy efficiency and reducing costs.
2) Existing process plants can still achieve optimization through newer technology solutions with minimal disruptions for immediate efficiency benefits.
3) Every region requires a balanced portfolio of energy sources to ensure reliability, as each source faces risks like supply issues or price variability. India's high reliance on coal needs reassessment.
4) Reducing energy intensity through optimization allows plants to keep operating during energy supply shortages instead of shutting down, benef

Pmi glossary translated
This document defines key terms used in reporting on various environmental metrics, including:
- Absentee rate, which measures the percentage of full-day equivalent working days employees did not report to work
- Hazardous waste, which is waste that poses threats to public health or the environment and requires special disposal procedures
- Lost day rate, which measures the number of full-day equivalent working days lost due to workplace injury or illness
- Purchased energy, which is energy obtained from third-party utility providers rather than generated on-site

Pmi faq translated
PMI designed its Sustainability Tracking System to track environmental and social information from factories it works with. This information is reported in PMI's Corporate Social Responsibility report and helps PMI support factories' continual improvement in these areas. Factories are asked to participate so PMI can understand how to support them. The individual responsible for a factory's environmental management is best suited to complete the Tracking System, though multiple departments may contribute. Vendors and various internal roles within a factory can provide the needed data.
