SynopsisCarbon capture and storage (CCS) (or carbon capture and sequestration or carbon control and sequestration) is the process of capturing waste carbon dioxide (CO2) from large point sources, such as fossil fuel power plants, transporting it to a storage site, and.....
SynopsisA hybrid street lighting system is a standalone outdoor lighting system used to illuminate an open area or a street. The hybrid street lights are powered by solar and wind energy. The hybrid street lighting system typically consists of a compact fluorescent la.....
Synopsis Advanced biofuels, also known as second generation biofuels are the renewable fuels which are used as alternatives for gasoline and diesels with very low emission of the greenhouse gases. Advanced biofuels can be manufactured by.....
SynopsisGrid energy storage is a collection of methods used to store electrical energy on a large scale within an electrical power grid. Electrical energy is stored during times when production (especially from intermittent power plants such as renewable electricity s.....
Synopsis Tidal energy is a form of hydropower generation, which converts the energy from tides into electricity. A typical tidal power plant is run by an underwater turbine that rotates and converts mechanical power to electrical power. The electrical .....
SynopsisCable testers are hand-held devices used to check the strength of the electrical or electronic signal travelling through a cable. The device is used to test the source of current as well as the load attached to the tester. The device also measures various para.....
SynopsisSuperconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) systems store energy in the magnetic field created by the flow of direct current in a superconducting coil which has been cryogenically cooled to a temperature below its superconducting critical temperature......
SynopsisBattery Management ICs includes Battery monitoring fuel gauge ICs and Battery chargers. Battery monitoring fuel gauge ICs combining a small footprint with outstanding measurement accuracy (voltage, current and temperature) and extremely low power consumption t.....
SynopsisGenerators are devices that convert mechanical energy into electric energy. The source of mechanical energy can vary from internal combustion engine, hand crank, compressed air, and reciprocating steam engine. Internal combustion engines use diesel, gasoline, .....
SynopsisA point-of-sale (POS) terminal is a hardware system for processing card payments at retail locations. Software to read magnetic strips of credit and debit cards is embedded in the hardware. Portable devices (i.e., not terminals anchored to a counter), either p.....
