BEYOND ENERGY: THE INTEGRATION OF ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE TO SUPPORT COMMUNITY GOALS A thesis submitted to the: Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati In Partial Complettion of the Requirements for the degree of: Master of Architecture In The School of Architecture and Interior Design Of The College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning June 2011 by Andrew J. Ellis B.S. Arch. University of Cincinnati, 2009 Committee Chairs: George Thomas Bible, MCiv.Eng Michael McInturf, MARCH ABSTRACT Rising energy costs and concerns over human impact on the environment will likely cause changes to America’s energy infrastructure. Distributed generation methods, including combined heat and power (CHP) plants, are a likely to be key components of these infrastructure changes. Distributed generation shifts the major generation facilities closer to the energy users rather than relying on large power plants that are located out of sight and far from users. The close proximity that is created between energy generation equipment and the equipment’s users due to distributed generation systems provides power plants with new opportunities to go beyond simply meeting a community’s energy needs to contribute to a community’s goals and represent its values through its planning and design. This thesis will show planning and design strategies that show how the integration of a distributed energy system, including power plants, into a community can be used to address that community’s energy needs and its core, non-energy related goals. This thesis will address strategies and goals related to three community scales: the regional or national scale, the local community scale, and the building community scale.

    January 04, 2018 Significant Stage Passed in Plans for Possible New

    SIGNIFICANT STAGE PASSED IN PLANS FOR POSSIBLE NEW POWER STATION ON TEESSIDE The proposed Tees CCPP site as it looks today with the Ensus plant in the background Sembcorp Utilities UK has taken a significant step forward in its plans to develop a new £700 million gas-fired power station on Teesside. The Tees Combined Cycle Power Plant (Tees CCPP) is a proposal to build a plant with an electrical capacity of up to 1,700 MW on land at the Wilton International site previously occupied by the former Teesside Power Station. Following consultation with a wide range of statutory and non-statutory parties earlier this year and the submission of a detailed environmental impact assessment and consultation report, the Planning Inspectorate has confirmed that Sembcorp’s Development Consent Order application has been accepted for further examination in a process expected to take around a year. “It’s an important stage in what has been a considerable effort over the past year to get to this point,” said Stephen Hands, Senior Vice President and Site Director at Sembcorp Utilities UK. Sembcorp Utilities (UK) Limited Registered in England, Reg. No. 4636301 Registered Office: Sembcorp UK Headquarters, Wilton International, Middlesbrough TS90 8WS “However we believe this plant, which would also be carbon capture ready, could play an important role in the regeneration of the Tees Valley by helping to attract major new, energy intensive business to the area.” The plant’s capacity – the equivalent of the power needed to supply up to 1.5 million homes and businesses - would be sufficient to power the needs of existing and future companies on the Wilton International site with any surplus able to be easily exported onto the National Grid to meet the national need for more secure supplies of electricity.

    Modified UK National Implementation Measures for Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System

    Modified UK National Implementation Measures for Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System As submitted to the European Commission in April 2012 following the first stage of their scrutiny process This document has been issued by the Department of Energy and Climate Change, together with the Devolved Administrations for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. April 2012 UK’s National Implementation Measures submission – April 2012 Modified UK National Implementation Measures for Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System As submitted to the European Commission in April 2012 following the first stage of their scrutiny process On 12 December 2011, the UK submitted to the European Commission the UK’s National Implementation Measures (NIMs), containing the preliminary levels of free allocation of allowances to installations under Phase III of the EU Emissions Trading System (2013-2020), in accordance with Article 11 of the revised ETS Directive (2009/29/EC). In response to queries raised by the European Commission during the first stage of their assessment of the UK’s NIMs, the UK has made a small number of modifications to its NIMs. This includes the introduction of preliminary levels of free allocation for four additional installations and amendments to the preliminary free allocation levels of seven installations that were included in the original NIMs submission. The operators of the installations affected have been informed directly of these changes. The allocations are not final at this stage as the Commission’s NIMs scrutiny process is ongoing. Only when all installation-level allocations for an EU Member State have been approved will that Member State’s NIMs and the preliminary levels of allocation be accepted.
  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding

    Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding

    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.

    Southeast Delco School District Knightly News Volume 4, Issue 8 Collingdale Darby Township Folcroft Sharon Hill Communities May 2015 Southeast Delco Gifted Students Take Two Trophies at SeaPerch Challenge The gifted middle school robotics team collaborated to design, build, and operate a SeaPerch ‐ a simple remotely operated vehicle, or ROV. The culmination of their work was participation in a regional competition held at Drexel University's Dakalakis Center, where thirty‐five middle schools from Delaware County, Chester County, Philadelphia, and New Jersey competed. Our gifted students' hard work and dedication paid off as they placed 1st in Team Spirit & Sportsmanship, aided by Kramoh Mansalay dressed as Poseidon and Brian Johnson dressed as the Academy Park Knight. They placed 3rd in Vehicle Performance due to the excellent gaming skills and piloting by Darby Township School's Steven Williams. They also received an Honorable Mention for their Engineering Notebook. The SeaPerch Challenge is a perfect venue to demonstrate our commitment to STEM education (science, technology, engineering and math). These students had the opportunity to build skills and become prepared to live and work in our increasingly high‐tech world. In addition to learning science and engineering concepts, they experienced the importance of being part of a team and realized that it was not just about winning. They learned many lifelong lessons including: How to persevere in an emotionally charged environment and technically difficult situation How to focus

The mission of the SEA LIFE Kelly Tarlton’s is to inspire conservation of the ocean. The aquarium is a place where people of all ages come to explore and discover the wonders of the sea. This Excursion Planning Guide is designed to help you and your parent helpers prepare for your aquarium visit to ensure that not only do your students get the most out of their visit, but you do as well! Contents Pre-Planning 2 Arrival Procedures 4 During Your Visit 6 Excursion Planning Timeline 7 Departing the Aquarium 8 SEA LIFE Kelly Tarlton’s Map 9 Sample Schedules for Large Groups (having classroom/semi-guided tours) 10 2 Pre-planning the key to an enjoyable and educational visit Talk to your students about your visit to Kelly Tarlton’s in the lead-up to your visit. If most of your students have never visited the aquarium before, be sure to show them an aquarium map and talk to them about some of the animals they will see in the aquarium. Let them visit our website and visit the habitat zones to familiarise themselves with the animals. One main question we get from students is “Do you have whales?” No we do not, so check what is in the aquarium before you visit to manage expectations. Share your excursion plan with students Let students know what they should expect on the day of their visit, talk them through the day from departing school to returning to school, with the fun part in between.
