(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)As the world's traditional energy sources come under scrutiny due to dwindling supply and negative environmental impact, a global effort is being made into alternative energy systems. One such system involves the use of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The need for innovation in the renewable energy sector is an ever-growing concern. With national-level disasters in the Gulf of Mexico, the necessity to begin the drive to develop effective and practical alternative energy ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)As energy becomes an increasingly important issue for generations to come, it is crucial to develop tools for valuing and understanding energy projects from an economic perspective since ultimately only economically viable ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)ABB is a world leader in power and automation technologies working to enable utility and industry customers to improve operations. Competition in these markets is increasing and in order to retain their competitive position, ...
