Introduction Taking into account PACEAA’s overall goal of poverty reduction facilitated by clean energy deployment, it is important to consider how to appropriately mobilize resources so that social development is prioritized alongside the pursuit of economic growth. In this light, it is deemed that the mobilization should take place around the two key activities of the project, namely power generation on one hand and power distribution on the other; and for both areas of activity businesses should

4. Two resistors, R1=8.8 Ω and R2=4.4 Ω, and two uncharged capacitors, C1=0.48 μF and C2 = 0.24 μF, are arranged as shown in Figure 3. A potential difference of 24 V is applied across the combination as shown. a. What is the potential at point a with the switch S open? (Let V = 0 at the negative terminal of the source.) = 8V (voltage divider rule) b. What is the potential at point b with the switch open? = 16V c. What is the charge on C1 with the switch open? = [Q=CV] = 0.48*10-6 *8

Homemade Batteries Homemade batteries are a popular subject with my readers. Making electricity from things you find around the house is a fun project. There are lots of easy ways to make homemade batteries. Basically, any two different kinds of metal can be placed in a conducting solution and you get a battery. Familiar homemade batteries include sticking copper and zinc strips into a lemon or a potato to make a battery. One quick battery is made from a soda can, the soda from the can, and some

In 2006, General Electric launched its Leadership, Innovation, and Growth (LIG) program to support CEO Jeffrey Immelt’s priority of achieving corporate growth primarily by expanding businesses and creating new ones. LIG represented a radical approach for GE’s famed management development center in Crotonville, New York, because it was the first effort to train all the senior members of a GE business’s management team as a group. Prokesch went through LIG with 19 senior managers of GE Power Generation

General Electric (GE) was one of the most severely hit companies during the financial crisis of 2008. The conglomerate was broadly expanding into the financial services sector in order to take advantage of the opportunity. However, as the financial meltdown started, the stock started losing value rapidly and the company lost more than half of its value. Over the past two years, GE has made substantial recovery in its business; as a result, the stock price has shown considerable recovery. Going forward

CASE 5-3 JOAN HOLTZ (A)* (1) Electric utility bills. An electric utility company can estimate with reasonable certainty the expected revenue in a given period by taking into consideration some of the following: customer habits, average historical trends, demand and supply forecasts, and environmental changes. The electric utility industry effectively uses an insurance industry concept—the law of large numbers, to determine with certainty, expected revenue. The law of large numbers states, as the
