Big Data, Big Content, and Aligning Your Storage StrategyHitachi Vantara
Fred Oh's presentation for SNW Spring, Monday 4/2/12, 1:00–1:45PM
Unstructured data growth is in an explosive state, and has no signs of slowing down. Costs continue to rise along with new regulations mandating longer data retention. Moreover, disparate silos, multivendor storage assets and less than optimal use of existing assets have all contributed to ‘accidental architectures.’ And while they can be key drivers for organizations to explore incremental, innovative solutions to their data challenges, they may provide only short-term gain. Join us for this session as we outline the business benefits of a truly unified, integrated platform to manage all block, file and object data that allows enterprises can make the most out of their storage resources. We explore the benefits of an integrated approach to multiprotocol file sharing, intelligent file tiering, federated search and active archiving; how to simplify and reduce the need for backup without the risk of losing availability; and the economic benefits of an integrated architecture approach that leads to lowering TCSO by 35% or more.

MET 401 Chapter 10 -_economics_of_power_generation_-_a._rezkIbrahim AboKhalil
[DOCUMENT]: This document discusses power plant engineering economics. It covers topics such as types of power plants, electricity generation rates, load duration curves, factors that influence electricity supply like load factor and capacity factor, power plant location considerations, and methods to reduce power plant costs through equipment selection, maintenance, and efficiency improvements. The document provides examples to illustrate calculations for various power plant economic metrics.
This document provides an alternative projection of world energy consumption compared to projections from the 2010 International Energy Outlook. The authors project energy consumption based on historical trends identified by an experience model. They compare their projections for 8 countries against those from the 2010 International Energy Outlook and find that the Outlook projections are lower for China, the US, India, Japan, and Mexico, indicating assumptions not supported by historical data. The authors aim to provide a benchmark projection to evaluate other forecasts of energy consumption.
This presentation gives an overview on how our current unsustainable energy supply systems can be transformed to sustainable energy systems? There is a special focus on the challenges for developing countries. The findings are based on the book from Peter Hennicke & Susanne Bodach "Energierevolution - Effizienzsteigerung und erneuerbare Energien als neue globale Herausforderungen" (Oekon Verlag 2010).
Presentation held on World Environment Day 2010 (2010-06-06) in Kathmandu, Nepal.
The document discusses global trends in the use of solar energy. It notes that while the share of renewables in energy consumption is still small, many countries have ambitious plans to rapidly increase solar power. It highlights innovative solar technologies like concentrated solar power and new hybrid PV-thermal solar collectors that can increase efficiency. These technologies open opportunities for solar power generation, desalination, enhanced oil recovery, and other applications. The document concludes renewable energy is key to the global transition to low-carbon energy systems.
Similar to Mr. satish kumar, schnieder electric (20)
So the energy equation is very simple and very complex to solve. At minimum, energy consumption, including electricity and other sources, will double in the next 40 years. Electricity use itself will double by 2030. At the same time, climate specialists tell us we should divide emissions by 2 to avoid serious climatic changes. In other terms, the world needs to improve its carbon intensity by a factor of 4. This means the developed world, the US, Europe, the Eastern seaboard of China will have to save energy or implement large scale EE measures. Mobilization on climate change world wide By 2030, ~3/4 of energy sources will remain CO2-related Grave consequences expected if global temperature rises by 3°c (based on International Energy Agency quotes and studies Important need for reliable energy Cost of 1 hour downtime = up to $10 million (depending on the industries) Green energy is a must and an opportunity Share of renewable in energy mix could double in the next 20 years ( based on both IEA and Department of Energy (DOE), USA)
Not only are energy prices increasing every year but the rate of growth is rapidly increasing. We are all very familiar with the impact of increasing demand and decreasing availability but speculation can also play a role energy prices. Since electricity is traded as a commodity, it can be influenced by trends in legislation, politics and world events. This makes energy prices very difficult to predict but it makes sense that these trends will continue for many years.
Energy efficiency at the point of use makes sense, because so much energy is lost during transmission.
require Green products and want to reduce the environmental impact of their activity (e.g. primarily the carbon footprint).
For reference: The above numbers are coming from Mckinsey Analysis In 2005, China’s cement production capacity was approx. 1.3 billion tons (source: www. Cementchina.net)
If India’s per capita GHG emission increases to around 5 Tonnes of CO2, India will become the world’s second largest contributor to Greenhouse gas emission. Therefore, it is imperative that we development that will NOT take place at the cost of the environment.
) First, renewable energies are mandatory. It is a must in the future carbon free world. We need to make their implementation easier and faster. But, fossil-based production will remain dominant in the coming decades. Even in 20 years, Renewables share will not be more than 15 to 20% globally Renewables also are volatile ( there is not always wind or sun). The energy grid needs to adapt to variations. Renewables are mandatory, but they are absolutely not the solution to a low carbon economy. 2) More important, we need to be more energy efficient. The international energy agency says that half of CO2 emissions reduction will come from energy savings. This is the biggest part of the solution. It is not expensive. Pay back is short. Implementation time is short. The best way to generate clean energy is to save energy. Every kwh saved in a building saves three kwh of pollution and carbon emission. It is because there are many losses in the electricity generation and transmission chain. Speaking about energy efficiency, we need to focus on the biggest energy consumers: buildings. Infrastructure, Industrial, tertiary and residential buildings account for almost 75% of world’s final energy consumption (SURE, it is not the SE buildings scope but for energy infrastructure, industry, buildings and residential ) With Active energy efficiency solutions. On new buildings you can cut your consumption by four. In existing buildings, you can save 30% at least. Same technologies do apply to Industry and infrastructure applications. Nevertheless, energy management is not only energy efficiency. It is about making energy safe, reliable and also green. The energy equation needs to be performing in all four directions. Technologies do exist. They just need to be implemented now. And we need also the specialists and trained people to make it happen. 3) Electric Vehicles (EV) are no longer a fantasy and Schneider Electric is determined to lead this promising market. This will definitely be one of the biggest opportunity and challenge of the Smart Grid. (le mot chinois pour danger here?) An opportunity, as we expect at least 50% of the car market to be electric in the next 10 to 15 years. A challenge, because it will put a huge pressure on energy demand. If we have to start 3 coal-plants to support the fact that everyone is plugging-in its electric car at 6pm, the environmental breakthrough of EV will be lost. There are two main challenges: - First, the battery: it is today the most expensive part of EV. The business model and the performance of batteries are still to improve and invent. - Second, the charging poles need to be technologically irreproachable, safe and affordable. Communication will also be key. Technology design, simplicity and affordability will be critical. Consumer adoption and education will be key. This requires an holistic approach and a complete integration to the smart grid. 4) Eventually, this electrical network will need real time connection at every stage of the smart grid For utilities and Transmission Operators to know the load and need of the network For the network to manage volatility of renewables. For consumers to know what is their consumption and where it comes from Demand response. For the grid to manage the variations of consumptions of intelligent buildings, industry and infrastructure. For electric vehicles drivers to know where the closest charging pole is to charge their car. Smart grid must be a transparent way to have visibility on energy at every stage. Smart grid must connect all the intelligent systems at all levels. Smart grid must optimize the energy supply and the energy demand.
Là encore, SE apporte son expertise dans 5 grands domaines : (lister) ainsi que nos capacités d’intégration, d’interconnexion des systèmes, et enfin notre état d’esprit collaboratif.
Whilst we have responsibility for the technology leadership of White Space Management, we must also bring the full system approach to the markets we serve (IT & Finance), from components, through control applications, to supervisory and enterprise level software.
Human analogy: human body manages and changes automatically all of the time (touch hot stove); same with a building nervous system…can make better and better automatic decisions with converged solutions…intelligent buildings. Our frontal lobe—more intelligent decisions over time; this can become the promise of a bright green building. This description is designed to give people a quick, general overview of what we do. It is designed to be clear and accessible, and is recommended only for audiences who do not know us well. A building is the best example, as it offers the broadest presentation of our portfolio how we integrate our different areas of expertise. Safe Energy in general, and electrical energy in particular, can be dangerous. We make it safe, in order to protect people and assets. SE provides circuit breakers, surge protectors, wiring devices, and other systems designed to ensure your safety. Reliable An unreliable energy supply can cause huge losses. Depending on the industry, the cost of 1 hour downtime can reach $10 million. The power gird is not always reliable, whether in terms of continuity or of quality. In the digital world of today, a “pure energy” supply without variations in intensity or cuts is a must. Efficient and productive Few people realise that a mere click on a computer mouse consumes a considerable amount of energy. Consider this: one day’s worth of Google searches generates the same amount of CO2 emissions as 200 return flights between Paris and New York. Note for the speaker 1 Google search = 1g of CO2 (between 0. 2 & 7g depending on the sources) 1 NYC-Paris return flight = 1T of CO2 200 millions Google searches every day Because energy is the source of all activity, we help our customers to manage it so as to boost their productivity. How? By developing automation and connectivity to make life easier for them. Our lifecycle services bring further peace of mind to our customers throughout the entire lifespan of their installations. Energy efficiency can give a remarkable boost to your finances by enabling you… -…to save on your energy bills, and… -…to optimise total cost of ownership of real estate or production facilities. This applies to individuals, and even more so to factory or business owners. The rising price of energy as well as growing environmental concerns mean that energy efficiency is not only the right way; it is the only way. Green Green energy is both a need and an opportunity The share of renewable in the world’s energy mix could double over the next 20 years ( according to both IEA and the US Department of Energy) SE will be part of this green transition, by providing easy ways to install and connect renewable energy sources. In renewable energy, SE provides connection systems and products like inverters, etc. EcostruXure: Simple software integration The biggest source of efficiency is integration. Simply connecting the different spaces of the building (Facility management system, security system, IT system, power monitoring system) through software systems can yield great benefits. It enables you to: Achieve more while using less Making instant documented decisions based on accurate data (consolidation is key to reduce waste and optimize the whole) Save time and energy through remote monitoring. EcoStruXure is a framework for creating simple Intelligent Energy management systems that save money and, more importantly, reduce waste. This agile, “architectural” approach makes optimised systems accessible to a wider audience thanks to its compatible product designs and open-platform software. It provides end-users with the tools they need to reduce their time to design and integrate, as well as their capex and opex. As consumers, businesses, and entire economies become increasingly reliant on technology, devices must become more intuitive, efficient, and intelligent. With EcoStruXure, Schneider Electric is helping energy to evolve in the same direction.

We help people make the most of their energy. What does it mean? between energy generation (coal, nuclear, Hydro, etc.) and energy usage (what we all do with energy everyday), it is our play ground: energy management. It consists in making energy safe, reliable, efficient, productive and green. Let’s go a little bit more into detail (next slide)
