    Centennial’s Energy Audit Conducted by Thomas K. & Tyler M. ! During our audit of Centennial’s energy use, we came to the conclusion that most of the teachers and staff at Centennial leave their powered-off electronics plugged in. This is a problem because even though electronics are turned off they are still consuming energy. Individually, each plugged in (but turned off) electronic device does not consume a noticeable amount of energy, but as a whole, all the plugged in electronics at Centennial is enough to cause a large power bill. ! The best way to correct this is to educate teachers and staff about the effects of leaving powered off electronics still plugged in; most people do not realize that even though electronics are turned completely…

    Solar energy is becoming increasingly popular within the years. Companies have been using this energy for automobiles, calculators, street lights, etc. Established in 8 different countries, keeping its bases in Canada and China, Canadian Solar has been generating strong financial returns. Canadian Solar believes its competitive advantage relies in their Western management and engineering and their low-cost Chinese production base and its strategy is to maintain comparable prices to its main Chinese competitors. However, with the global economic downturn in the recent years as well as changes in the government incentives in certain countries, the company has been struggling to stay on top in this competitive market, and needs to keep a competitive advantage against companies such as Sharp and Kyocera. This is a big problem to the company since it threatens their strategy and might put them out of competition. Which brings us to the question: What should Canadian Solar do to best compete in the increasingly “global” photovoltaic industry?…

    In relation to E.ON, one of the most significant of the PESTLE factors is Technological. As the energy industry is highly competitive, particularly between the big 6, E.ON must ensure they are keeping up with technological advancements in order to remain competitive. The technological advancement of Smart metering – a clever piece of kit that allows the electricity and gas meters to talk to each other, to their Smart Energy Display and directly to their energy supplier, has had a significant impact. This will have great advantages for both the customer, such as an end to estimated bills, and E.ON, such as being able to switch a customer from monthly billing to…

    Canadian Solar which is a traded solar cell and module manufacturer has experienced recent strong growth. Despite 2009 fluctuations in the solar industry namely for PV technology, the growth has been fuelled by Government incentives programs to encourage solar PV technology. The Solar industry is now highly competitive and companies follow an industrial organizational model. This is because they all compete mainly in PV technology, and this market is hinged on Government initiatives and renewable support schemes. Also, the international markets such as Spain (FIT) and Germany ( EEG law) influenced the companies ' strategy in terms of rates changes, over supply in 2009 among others.…

    Electricity was first researched by Thales of Miletos around 600BC. He conducted a few experiments on static electricity in which he believed that friction made amber become magnetized. Other than the fact that people knew that eels produced electric shocks, electricity was little more than an intellectual curiosity for over 2000 years. Until 1600 when someone from England discovered the lodestone effect when amber with static would attract small objects towards it. In the 18th century, Benjamin Franklin did much research on electricity and sold his possessions to fund his research. He was said to have tied a key to a damp string attached to a kite and flew it into an electrical storm. He watched as sparks jumped from the key to the back of his hand discovering that lightning was electrical.…
