General
“Era of Change” or “era of change” is a word that appropriately describes the atmosphere in which companies of electric power providers are currently located. With the development of deregulation that has occurred in many countries, various problems that must be faced and resolved. In addition, changes also occurred in the field of electricity supply, among others in the field of technology generation and in the field of automation, both of which have a large impact on the management of electricity companies. In this description, it’s attempted to bring some development trends in two areas, namely technology generation and automation technology.

Some Power Technology Development Trends
The second energy crisis that occurred in 1973 and 1979 highlighted the problem of a country’s dependence on only one type of energy is imported oil. This led to demand for the centers of power plants that can use other types of fuel. At present there are five types of fuels for power generation, namely coal, gas, hydro, nuclear and oil. Then develop other demands, namely purposes of improving the efficiency of the generation and the need for environmentally friendly technologies.

Application of biomass also becomes an important target
Technology gas turbine, combined cycle and cogeneration. Gas turbines now play an important role in the development of centers of a new power plant. The role seems to continue into the 21st century to come. The primary reason for this dominance is the high thermal efficiency. Rapid development of gas turbine technology from early 1990s increases the efficiency of combined cycle power center near 60 percent by using natural gas as fuel. It is estimated that the efficiency is still going to be increased again in the next few years. In addition, combined cycle generation with fuel gas, often called the center of steam gas power, or Combined Cycle Power Plant, and is relatively cheaper than plant-coal. Better yet, if the supply of natural gas can be obtained with a low price.

Furthermore, it also can be called that of natural gas as fuel is often called a “clean” so that a PLTGU cause minimal environmental pollution. Indonesia, in this case PLN Corporation, now has a lot to operate PLTGU. Be noted that at this time an American company GE (General Electric) seeks to improve the efficiency PLTGU which can exceed 60 percent by using a combination of the cycle, which uses as a working fluid a mixture of water and ammonia.

Coal liquefaction technology is still much disturbed by the high cost. The most advanced countries in this field are South Africa. The country has several factories that produce liquid coal. The first factory is “Sasol One” is located near the town of Sasolburg, which has been in production since the mid 1950s. The second factory, “Sasol Two”, is located in the city production since 1980, and the third factory, “Sasol Three”, in production since 1982.nuklri experiencing some growth mainly of making the design such that the center of a nuclear power plant (NPP) generation The following become more reliable, safe, economical and more easily operated. Increased reliability and security is obtained in the simplification of primary pipe system, improvements to the control rod mechanism, and optimization of cooling in an emergency. Increased ease of operation and maintenance, among others, is due to improved instrumentation and control systems. While the decline in construction and operating costs increase economic performance. Also obtained decrease in the number of radioactive waste generated. Among the new models from several manufacturers can be called the ABWR (Advanced Boiling Water Reactor) and SBWR (Simplified Boiling Water Reactor), both from General Electric Westinghouse then issued a type AP-600 while the ABB-CE System 80 + yield. Nevertheless be noted, that very little happens that new nuclear power plant. Indonesia also suspended plans to build nuclear power plants. Fastest growing plant is now happening in the PRC, which is expected to have 20 GW of installed power plant in 2010, which in addition to the most composed of PWR (Pressurized Water Reactor), will also build a nuclear power plants (Canadian Deuterium Uranium), technology from Canada.

Magneto hydrodynamic is technology powerhouse magneto hydrodynamics (MHD) is currently still in early stages of development. PLT-MHD open systems developed in Russia, and the use of coal as fuel. Gas heat treated seeds passed a strong magnetic field produces one-way electric currents energy, which with an inventers used as an alternating current. Installation of a pilot project (U-25) MHD by 25 MW has been operating near the city of Moscow. PLT-MHD closed system, which memperguankan noble gases and utilizes natural gas as fuel, was developed in the United States. Westinghouse and General Electric develop this type of power plant.

Fuel cell technology as power plants uses hydrogen gas as fuel. In principle the workings of the fuel cell is the opposite of the principle of electrolysis. General Electric Company and the General Atomic developed this technology. Tokyo Electric Power Company in Tokyo, Japan now operates a pilot project of 11 MW, and Consolidated Edison Company of 4.8 MW in New York.

According to leaks in circulation the day before, the internet giant, Google, finally officially introduced a social networking service with Google’s name Buzz. This service does not stand alone, but directly integrated with the Gmail service started early February 2010 and will gradually be available for Gmail users around the world.

So, create a Gmail user, just getting ready to try without having to do the installation. Make that do not have a Gmail account, would have to register first to try Google’s Buzz. Interested with Buzz? Learn what it used to Google’s Buzz.

Google Buzz provides features that allow Gmail users can now quickly share messages, website links, and photos with their fellow colleagues Gmail users, Google’s call to share ideas because it provides features such as Twitter messages, but without the character limit.

It also features photo and video sharing as well as updates from various services that have been used, such as Twitter, Picasa, Flickr, and Google Reader. This service is also accessible via smartphones, especially the special applications for Android, an open platform developed by Google. Google Buzz also be integrated into the Google Maps service so that users other activities can be seen on the map. Read the rest of this entry »

Confused why the Internet giant, Google, is developing two sets of different operating systems, you can listen to the narrative Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer in an interview at the conference coverage D8. On stage the annual technology conference that supported the Wall Street Journal, which was held in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., Ballmer discussed Microsoft’s competitors in the mobile industry. He says that Android is significant on the phone, although he was not sure whether it would be a big problem on other devices.

Speaking of other devices, Ballmer said he did not understand why Google has Chrome and Android. Chrome began as the operating system designed for netbooks while Android is targeted for mobile phones, but Google has a plan for them to spread, so there could have a netbook Android and Chrome. Microsoft is always striving to bring more coherence to their operating system. Ballmer wondered why Google started to be incoherent. Fortunately, Microsoft Chief Software Architect Ray Ozzie has the answer, “Android is a bet on the past, Chrome is a bet on the future.

Android is still about how to install applications on a particular device, OS Chrome is designed for the future in which online without restraint, in the cloud service. “Balmer was still repeating his statement that did confuse the two operating systems, and provide advice to Google: betting on one and pursue it. Not that Balmer felt too confident with himself, with Android and especially iPhone more shining than Windows. Ballmer said Microsoft has lost the lead and missed the entire cycle, but the team has been cleaned and Microsoft will run consistently on new ideas.

The first thing that comes up to your mind when talking about the vehicle tracking system is the benefit in terms of the security. So whenever you had your car stolen, you will be able to track them down and ask the police to help you get it back without have to go many complicated procedures because you can locate your car immediately. The vehicle tracking solutions gives more guarantee especially when you have expensive cars like BMW or the Mercedes. But it should be remembered that the insurance company will not cover for your loss if your car has a vehicle tracking system other than the Thatcham approved stolen vehicle tracking. So it should be paid a close attention to. Make sure you only use the one that is Thatcham approved.

If you are a business owner, there is actually another benefit. The fleet tracking systems can give you a full control over the company vehicles. You get to locate them whenever you want to. This will be the tool for you to monitor the productivity of your employees and have a full control over the effectiveness of your operational costs. Vehicle tracking system is more than just a tool. It is an investment.
