Description

This timely book examines the reform of China's vast power generation network and its future energy efficiency and environmental policies. Coal being used for power generation accounts for 54% of China's sulphur dioxide emissions. In 2009, electricity generation consumed 50gce more coal than the international advanced level, which means 180 million tons of standard coal equivalent was over consumed in that year (3681.2 billion kWh). In 2009, the line loss rate of the PRC's power grid reached 6.49%, which is 1% higher than the world's advanced level. More than 30 billion KWh of electricity was lost, equal to 10.2 million tons of coal. These are huge losses. In order to improve China's energy efficiency and reduce pollution, the Office of State Council issued the hugely significant Regulation on Energy Conservation Power Generation Dispatching. Five Chinese provinces piloted the new regulations and this fascinating book examines these pilot studies and the subsequent reforms. The effects of these regulations are now being felt across China's vast network of power generators. The book offers in-depth analysis alongside several significant conclusions and policy suggestions that will enable China to make significant reductions in energy consumption and help cut emissions.

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
