    Summary: At present, most distributed renewable energy systems produce direct current (DC) electricity which is then inverted to alternating current (AC) and fed into the electric grid. Simultaneously, many modern building loads and storage systems use rectifiers to convert AC grid electricity to DC for use at the load or battery. Onsite use of renewable energy production therefore requires two energy conversions: DC/AC at the point of generation and AC/DC at the load. The Bosch DC Building Scale

    FAULT-TOLERANT COMPUTING “Fault tolerant computing is the art and study of building figuring frameworks that keep on operating agreeably within the sight of issues”. A fault tolerant framework might have the capacity to endure at least one faults including – i) transient, irregular or perpetual equipment faults, ii) programming and equipment plan blunders, iii) administrator mistakes, or iv) remotely prompted upsets or physical harm. A broad technique has been produced in this field in the course

    Abstract— There is growing interest in creating smart grid mainly reducing carbon footprint and outage. Countries with vast population like china and India are in the race for implementation of the smart grid pilot project in selected areas. However there are some serious technological and economic constraints on their implementation. This paper is an exclusive study on the status, challenges, and possible solution related to the technological aspects from India perspective. Since the smart meter

    \noindent Several existing studies employ simulations to explore the impact of node selfishness on data delivery performance. The authors in \cite{EffNonCoo-15} explore the impact of the nodes' non-forwarding and partially-forwarding actions on the performance of Epidemic, SnW, and Prophet protocols in terms of the data delivery ratio and delay. The experimental results demonstrate that DTNs tolerate a high percentage of non-cooperative nodes (20-40\% or even 60\%) without too much harm, even though

    The European Union is committed to some of the boldest renewable energy goals of at least 27% of final energy consumption by renewable sources by 2030. While this goal is in part environmentally motivated with commitments to climate change in mind, it is also politically motivated; Europe is currently heavily dependent on natural gas for its energy needs, with much of this natural gas imported from Russia. This arrangement puts Europe in danger from blockades and economic pressure from Russia. The

    Modern lifestyle is completely dependent on reliable energy supply. We cannot imagine world, its further development and constant economic growth without security of energy supply. But new reserves of fossil fuels are becoming more difficult to find, what makes energy industry to invest in and use unconventional resources such as shale gas and oil sands. Prices of oil, gas and energy itself will get higher but the demand of energy does not seem to decrease. What is more, the European Union hence
