Energy security

Energy security is a global issue. It can be defined as “The uninterrupted availability of energy sources at an affordable price” (Chester, 2010). Energy security is not limited to the mere availability of the energy resources, it is rather linked with the national security of any country. If a country has energy resources to serve the need of its citizens, it means country has more sustained and long term energy security for the technological as well as economic development. Energy security is not a very simple topic, it holds many dimensions. Long term energy security of any country is about timely investment on energy resources so as to remain self-sufficient for energy demand. This is indeed an inevitable for long term economic development.…

leaders were unexperienced and unaware of the magnitude behind running a country. The oil industry picked up well around mid-19th century in America and its initial stages, kerosene, was used for light domestic uses of heating and lighting, but the development of new drilling technology in the 19th century saw the mass consumption of petroleum provide energy for industries. Mid-19th century something else game changing happened, the first commercial oil well came into effect. From then until…

National Security and energy security go hand in hand. To have national security a country must also have energy security. Oil dependent nations must have secure access to their necessary oil supply to keep the country running properly. Disturbances in the flow of oil out of the ground and into the hands of the consumers would have a catastrophic effect on global energy markets. Many states spend billions annually on energy security. A lot of that money goes into securing world oil chokepoints,…

Energy is in the centre of the economic development of every country or region. It sets into motion and feeds factories, government buildings and offices, schools and hospitals. It warms up homes and keeps perishable foods cold. Its importance explains the shown complexity. Energy is source of wealth and competition, base for political controversies and technological investments, and also core of memorable challenges for our global environment. Energy is essential for development. Securing…

3. Energy Efficiency: With the passage of time a lot of improvements and developments are made but these innovations are limited to hardware and software development and very little work was done for enhancing the power consumption and storage capacity. Some applications are running at the cost of great power consumption like location sensing etc., which also affects the execution speed. These applications include GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth etc. One of the techniques used to reduce the power…

demonstrate an equilibrium and security. In contrast, by expressing the laws of thermodynamics, it is stressed that through the process of discovering a balance, obstacles can be achieved. Thermodynamics highlights the stream of science attentive to heat and conversions to different forms of energy and work. Not only does the thermodynamic state define volume, temperate and pressure, it will contain heat sources giving a capacity, and change state. The idea of thermodynamics is for the system to…

Renewable energy is energy which can be obtained from natural resources that can be constantly replenished .Unlike non-renewable energy, renewable energy do not perish and friendlier than non-renewable energy because they do not produce gases or smoke. However, renewable energies also have their own limitations due circumstances, climate change or the lack of knowledge to the new technologies. For example, wind energy won’t be produced if the weather is windless, Solar energy won’t produce…

1.1 Power Flow Theory Power, as we know, consists of two components, active and reactive power. The total sum of active and reactive power is called as apparent power. 1.1.1 Active Power “Power is a measure of energy per unit time. Power therefore gives the rate of energy consumption or production. The units for power are generally watts (W). For example, the watt rating of an appliance gives the rate at which it uses energy. The total amount of energy consumed by this appliance is the wattage…

PVCU double glazing in Cheshire is a product offered by Sterling PVCU. Double glazing is a method used to lessen heat transfer through a part of a building. It refers to the use of double or triple glass panes separated by a space filled with gas or a vacuum to slow down the rate of the heat energy passing through. It is a good technique used for insulation. Another benefit of double glazing is that it can reduce sound transmission. This means that you won’t be able to hear the buzz and din of…
