Dynamic simulators for improved plant performance
Niclas Krantz focuses on some very useful and recently developed simulator applications from power utilities. He examines three different simulator applications, very useful in their applications respectively. They are all developed for power utilities and power houses in process industries like pulp mills with their own power generationUsing virtual reality to design and simulate power plant performance
There has never been more interest in environmentally-friendly power generation technologies such as photovoltaic, wind, hydroelectric and biogas. However, they are complex to design and maintain. As Sean Ottewell discovers, new virtual reality (VR) software from Germany could change all thatTransmission
Securing the smart grid: the road ahead
With the push for more efficient energy distribution, the smart grid has quickly transformed from the hottest buzzword to a global reality. But what exactly is the smart grid? Joshua Pennell explainsRadical change needed for smart power grids to succeed in Europe
Major challenges in strategic planning and cross-border coordination have to be overcome for Europe to enjoy the benefits of true smart grid electricity generation and distribution. Sean Ottewell reportsThe electrical grid of tomorrow will be flexible and self-healing
A smart electrical grid has the potential to play a key role in the effort to lower energy costs for consumers, achieve energy independence and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. How can all of this be realised and what can government do to ensure such a grid can be made a reality? Dr Richard Charnah explainsRenewable Energy
