The Stationary Energy LPG Industry - Our Value to Australia Final Dec 14 copy
The document discusses the value of the stationary energy liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) industry in Australia. It notes that Gas Energy Australia members supply almost 1 million Australian households and businesses with LPG. Members have over $4 billion invested in infrastructure like ports, storage facilities, trucks and over 7 million gas cylinders. The industry employs over 1,400 people directly and over 1,200 contractors. Using LPG for hot water can save consumers almost $1,000 over a water heater's lifespan compared to electric storage hot water. The LPG industry thus provides significant economic and employment benefits across Australia while offering consumers a competitively priced energy option.
Hydrogen Energy Storage offer presentation word
The document proposes a turn-key hydrogen energy production and storage system using solar power to produce hydrogen gas, store it, and use hydrogen fuel cell or combustion engines to generate electricity. It would allow a site to power its entire facility and create new revenue streams by producing and selling excess hydrogen. The system provides energy security and reliability while reducing emissions and fossil fuel dependence.
Storelectric
The document discusses the problem of intermittent renewable energy sources and the need for large-scale, long duration electricity storage. It presents Storelectric's solution of using compressed air energy storage within underground salt caverns. This technology, called thermal energy storage CAES, can store enough electricity to power Europe for a week and has round trip efficiencies of 62-70%, making it more efficient and lower cost than existing large-scale storage options like pumped hydro. Each large plant could replace a conventional power station and support increasing renewable penetration onto the grid.
Siqens GmbH
Siqens is developing methanol fuel cell technology to replace diesel generators for off-grid power applications. They aim to achieve €1 million in revenue in 2017, €10 million in 2019, and €25 million in 2021 by expanding into markets for telecommunications, electric vehicles, industrial IoT, and rural electrification. Siqens' fuel cells can provide power at up to 70% lower fuel costs than diesel generators while reducing emissions by over 99%.

Managing the Flexible Workforce of the Future [Amsterdam]
As business continues to move at light speed, companies are deploying flexible workforces that can be quickly engaged and on - boarded to keep pace. Behind the scenes, they need total visibility in order to optimize all areas of services procurement including complex spend, worker quality, corporate and external compliance and contingent workforce program efficiencies. And they need a new breed of technology to achieve this. Companies today need a Vendor Management System (VMS) that can easily integrate with other internal systems to enable a holistic view of both talent and spend.

Next Generation Scheduling for YARN and K8s: For Hybrid Cloud/On-prem Environ...
Scheduler of a container orchestration system, such as YARN and K8s, is a critical component that users rely on to plan resources and manage applications.
And if we assess where we are today, in YARN effectively it had two power schedulers (Fair and Capacity scheduler) and both serve many strong use cases in big data ecosystem. It can scale up to 50k nodes per cluster, and schedule 20k containers per second, and extremely efficient to manage batch workloads.
K8s default scheduler is an industry-proven solution to efficiently manage long-running services. As more big data apps are moving to K8s and cloud world, but many features like hierarchical queues to support multi-tenancy better, fairness resource sharing, and preemption, etc. are either missing or not mature enough at this point of time to support big data apps running on K8s.
At this point, there is no solution that exists to address the needs of having a unified resource scheduling experiences across platforms. That makes it extremely difficult to manage workloads running on different environments, from on-premise to cloud.
Hence evolving a common scheduler powered from YARN and K8s’s legacy capabilities and improving towards cloud use cases will focus more on use cases like:
Better bin-packing scheduling (and gang scheduling)
Autoscale up and shrink policy management
Effectively run batch workloads and services with clear SLA’s
In summary, we are improving core scheduling capabilities to manage both K8s and YARN cluster which is cloud aware as a separate initiative and above-mentioned cases will be the core focus of this initiative. More details of our works will be presented in this talk.

The New Economics of Wi-Fi _ Disruptive Forces Driving Innovation for Carrier...
The New Economics of Wi-Fi _ Disruptive Forces Driving Innovation for Carriers - by AirTight CEO David King
@WBAlliance #WGCSFO October 10th 2014
Outline
(1) The Sweet Spot of Adoption = Technology Drivers + Customer Expectations + Service Provider Needs
We’ll focus on what is disrupting the Wi-Fi space today and how carriers can take advantage of the inflection points happening in the industry, such as cloud, HotSpot 2.0, 802.11ac and IoT.
We will cover how Wi-Fi can address key concerns of carriers as they face the threat of shrinking margins, high customer acquisition costs and a lack of customer loyalty.
We will address how to use Wi-Fi to:
- Reduce the cost of onboarding and supporting new customers
- Provide higher value, context-driven engagement
- Deliver relevant offerings driven by context-based analytics – based on location, social profiles, loyalty
(2) There’s a New Stack in Town
What will the new mobile stack look like and what can carriers learn from the Wi-Fi industry?
- Software driven approach is re-allocating money from HW manufacturers
- Revenues are moving towards those who can build applications and ecosystems around the new value of Wi-Fi – those who can help customers monetize the connectivity.
- What are the components of the new stack?
- Wi-Fi is a proof point of what the new mobile stack will look like
o Monetization
o Brand Engagement
o Actionable Analytics
o Behavioral Security and Onboarding
o High Performance Access
(3) Service provider enablement through secure cloud-managed Wi-Fi
Why has cloud-managed Wi-Fi has garnered so much interest from the carrier side?
It starts with faster time to market – being able to
- test and deploy new business programs quickly
- conduct rapid trials across geographies and customer bases
- accelerate response time to security threats.
The low hanging fruit for carriers are distributed business customers; they are an underserved segment – simply because there are no efficiencies of scale. Cloud Wi-Fi gives you the ability to serve this customer base profitably. It delivers shorter onboarding times and easier connection management and troubleshooting for these types of customers.
(4) New paradigm in cloud management
What does it mean to have a scalable and cost-efficient cloud, and why should carriers care?
The economics of carrier business put emphasis on manageability and scale. Operational efficiencies are now just as important as AP performance. Cost efficiencies will drive cost of adding new customers down.
What should carriers look for in cloud Wi-Fi? We’ll discuss the critical components of a carrier-grade cloud backend:
- Scalability
- Manageability
- Security
- Cost efficient architecture
- Super tenancy to manage multiple customers
[What are our proof points? Largest cloud footprint with 17,000 locations.

Elton satusky trends in startups
Venture capital investment has remained steady in recent years, though there is consolidation with fewer funds controlling more money. Venture capitalists are less likely to invest in early stage startups, leading angels, super angels and incubators to fill the gap. While funds raised more money in the first three quarters of 2014 than all of 2013, the number of deals decreased sharply. This has led to a shortage of later stage funding known as the Series A crunch, where only about 20% of startups that receive seed funding go on to raise a Series A round. New models are emerging to address these trends, like AngelList matching startups to angel investors and accelerators helping startups in the early incubation phase.
