Smart grid systems, for being profitably implemented, will have to deliver advantageous results to costumers, investors and operators. This can be realised by providing efficient, secure and reliable systems, connecting distributed renewable energy sources and enabling advanced services. The analysis of those potential benefits should consider all the components of the smart grids from the energy...
This research proposes a quick, robust and energy-saving rotation control method for the air turbine spindle used in ultra-precision machining. We developed a high-precision, quick-response pneumatic pressure regulator and applied it to the rotation feedback control of an air turbine spindle. We also set a disturbance force observer in the feedback control system to avoid changes of the rotation speed...
The European Commission is supporting many projects intended to improve the use of renewable energy sources and a special attention has been devoted to the case of large-scale urban areas. The Polycity project represents a significant demonstration of this energy policy, which was applied to 3 cities: Barcelona, Stuttgart and Torino. The case of Torino appears of particular relevance because it is...
The European Commission is supporting many projects in the field of energy saving, with the aim to improve inhabitants behavior and to help Europe to meet emission targets. The objective of the Balanced European Conservation Approach - ICT services for resource saving in social housing (BECA) Project is to enable consumption reduction of key resources in European Social Housing by providing usable...
