Electric Utility Resource Planning Economics, Reliability, and Decision-Making Steven Sim Florida Power & Light Company, Miami, USA
This book explains how utilities work and how utility planning is (or should be) conducted. It leads readers through an exercise of creating a hypothetical electric utility system of various types of power plants. It shows how those power plants would be operated and then walks readers through the steps of analyzing new power plants and energy conservation options to determine how the utility’s customers would best be served. • Explains how an electric utility actually works • Discusses the three questions utilities must always answer in their planning for future resources • Presents the analytical steps a utility would and should use to reach resource decisions, • Gives an analysis for a hypothetical utility system • Uses numerous tables, figures, and graphs to illustrate key points and highlight analytical results • Includes a glossary of energy/utility terms and five mini-lessons that further explain issues explored in the analyses Selected Contents: Introduction. How Does an Electric Utility Actually "Work"? Overview of Utility Resource Planning. Reliability Analyses for Our Utility System. Resource Option Analyses for Our Utility System: Supply Options. Resource Option Analyses for Our Utility System: DSM Options. Final Resource Option Analyses for Our Utility System. Are We Done Yet? Other Factors That Can (and Will) Complicate Resource Planning Analyses. Final Thoughts (Including Some Opinions). Appendices. Catalog no.

This book enhances your ability to communicate contractual issues to lawyers and then better understand the consequent legal advice you receive. The author introduces the related subjects of intellectual property (including patents, copyright, trademarks, and trade secrets) and standards (including conformity assessment and accreditation). He also addresses the role of ethics at the micro and macro levels, emphasizing issues such as the collapse of Boston’s Big Dig and the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
Written by a renowned engineer and widely published technical author, this guide enables you to write, edit, and publish materials of a technical nature, including books, articles, reports, and electronic media. Complementing the traditional writer’s reference manuals and other books on technical writing, the book helps readers understand the practical considerations in writing technical content. Drawing on his own work, the author presents many first-hand examples of writing, editing, and publishing technical materials. These examples illustrate how a publication originated as well as various challenges and solutions.
• Introduces seemingly diverse contract concepts that engineers must understand • Provides background on common law contracts and their relationship to sales contracts in the Uniform Commercial Code • Discusses typical terms of employee agreements as well as information on government contracts • Explains examples of ethics for both individuals and organizations • Includes a list of key figures and tables Selected Contents: Common Law Contracts.
