T: +44 (0) 1438 767328 E: sales@ theiet .org The Institution prepares regulations for the safety of electrical installations for buildings, the IEE Wiring Regulations (BS 7671), which has 02 now become the standard for the UK and many other countries. It has also prepared the Code of Practice for Installation of Electrical and Electronic Equipment In Ships (BS 8450) and recommends, internationally, the requirements for Mobile and Fixed Offshore Installations. The Institution provides guidance on the application of BS 7671 through publications focused on the various activities from design of the installation through to final test and certification with further guidance for maintenance. This includes a series of eight Guidance Notes, two Codes of Practice and model forms for use in wiring installations.

Scenarios for a Future Electricity Supply Cost-optimised variations on supplying Europe and its neighbours with electricity from renewable energies

Gregor Czisch

This book pursues the fundamental idea of using renewable energies in a rational economic way to come to a climate friendly electricity supply: As the most cost efficient solution an electricity network for the whole of Europe and parts of the neighbouring continents Africa and Asia is found. The sources of renewable and partly decentralised electricity generation could be connected in a comprehensive power supply, to meet the electricity needs of the whole region.

Gregor Czisch examines which options will lend themselves in the future, from both a technical and an economic viewpoint, to meeting European electricity requirements. He shows that extremely promising and affordable options exists in the use of renewable energy in all its diversity in a system facilitating international cooperation.

In this book Czisch examines different scenarios for a CO2-neutral electricity system under different political, technological and economic conditions for Europe and its closer surroundings. The aim was to find in each variation the economically optimal solution, whereby the supply area embraces approximately 1.1 billion inhabitants and an electricity consumption of rougly 4000 Terawatthours per annum (TWh/a).

Carbon Capture and Storage

Mark Venables

Despite the drive to develop renewable sources of energy fossil fuels will continue to play a significant role in meeting energy demand worldwide, and chief among these is coal. But with climate change concerns coming to the fore the emissions from burning coal cannot be acceptable. The answer is geosequestration, or as it is more commonly known Carbon Capture and Storage. This book looks at capturing carbon dioxide that would otherwise be emitted to the atmosphere, compressing it, transporting it to a suitable site, and injecting it into deep geological formations where it will be trapped for thousands or millions of years.

Local Energy Distributed generation of heat and power Janet Wood

In future, the UK’s energy supplies, for both heat and power, will come from much more diverse sources. In many cases, this will mean local energy projects serving a local community or even a single house. What technologies are available? Where and at what scale can they be used? How can they work effectively with our existing energy networks? This book explores these power and heat sources, explains the characteristics of each and examines how they can be used.

Understanding Telecommunications Networks

Andy Valdar, UCL

Those involved in the telecommunications industry, in particular those working in non-engineering areas such as finance, product management, personnel, marketing and sales, need to understand how complex telecommunications networks work. Understanding Telecommunications Networks provides a broad introduction to all aspects of modern telecommunications networks, covering the principles of operation of the technology and the way that networks using this technology are structured. The main focus is on those technologies in use today in the majority of public telecommunications networks. Discussion of new technology, in particular the move to the so-called next generation networks (NGN), is also included.

Contents: An introduction to telephony. The many networks and how they link. Network components. Transmission systems. Transmission networks. Circuit-switching systems and networks. Signalling and control. Data (packet) switching and routeing. Mobile switching systems and networks. Numbering and addressing. Putting it all together. Appendices. Abbreviations. Index.
