Book Description
The author argues that power in organizations has negative and counter-productive effects: management should be based on self-guidance and maximizing each individual's creative resources. Arguing that mangers should focus on developing efficiency, empathy and imagination, this includes questionnaires so readers can assess their management approach.

Book Description
This book provides key ideas for the design and analysis of complex energy management systems (EMS) for distributed power networks. Future distributed power networks will have strong coupling with (electrified) mobility and information-communication technology (ICT) and this book addresses recent challenges for electric vehicles in the EMS, and how to synthesize the distributed power network using ICT. This book not only describes theoretical developments but also shows many applications using test beds and provides an overview of cutting edge technologies by leading researchers in their corresponding fields. Describes design and analysis of energy management systems; Illustrates the synthesis of distributed energy management systems based on aggregation of local agents; Discusses dependability issues of the distributed EMS with emphasis on the verification scheme based on remote-operational hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation and cybersecurity.

Book Description
The primary goal of this book is to enable effective, updated and easy preparation for UPSC and State PSC exams. Both the structure and content of the book have been carefully designed to serve the triple purposes of self-study, revision, and expert guidance to the aspirant. # Each chapter begins with Learning Outcomes, Chapter Analysis and Issues to Ponder to introduce the topics covered, develop curiosity, and capture student’s interest. # The book is filled with infographics at relevant places which is helpful to learn answer writing presentations of Mains exam writing. # The infographics or images are such that they can be memorized and elaborated in words for answer making. # Further, this is a Text-Guide in the sense that it combines the theoretical knowledge of a textbook with the practical, strategic aspects of a Guide. # This Text-Guide aims to solve all content and guidance-related problems of a student at once. # It is powered with a section called ‘Expert’s Advice’ where the author directly addresses, guides and instructs the student using his expert knowledge. # This will help the student to understand which sections are most important, what can be asked in future, and what should not be skipped strictly from exam point-of-view. # In terms of the content, the differences between Ecology and Environment and between Environmental Studies and Environmental Sciences have been clearly maintained throughout the book. # The writing style is lucid, concise and cross-referential. Sections from all chapters are linked with questions that previously appeared in Prelims and Mains, thus helping you keep the big picture in mind. # Prelims Confusing Terms Simplified, Prelims Pointers, Mains Pointers, Think Tank, and In short are mentioned throughout the book wherever necessary. # A separate Chapter with short revision notes encompassing the crux of the whole book, by the name of SNAPSHOT, is provided at the end of the Book. # This book is a comprehensive text-guide with exhaustive discussion in 45 Chapters. The theory is enriched with Previous year Prelims Questions, NCERT based MCQs and Mains related questions and answers. # There is detailed emphasis on concepts and anecdotes through factsheets in all the chapters.

Book Description
The Paris Agreement’s key objective is the strengthening of the global response to climate change by transitioning the world to an increasingly green economy. In this book, environmental tax and climate law experts examine carbon taxes energy subsidies, and support schemes for carbon and energy policies. Chapters reflect on the underlying policy dynamics and the constraints of various fiscal measures, and consider the harmonisation of smart instrument mixes.

Book Description
Code-compliant building materials and equipment will typically have a lower initial cost; however, the lifetime energy savings of the high efficiency equipment will often justify the upfront cost premium and result in a more cost-effective solution. Energy Savings Calculations for Commercial Building Energy Efficiency Upgrades assists energy professionals, contractors, building owners, and managers in developing energy savings estimates that can facilitate a quick assessment of the potential energy savings that might be realized when replacing existing building components with the highest efficiency equipment. It also provides algorithms to estimate greenhouse gas emission reductions that may be achieved by building energy efficiency upgrades and the impact these upgrades can have on building electrification-decarbonization projects. This book: Focuses on the development of energy savings estimates based upon a whole building’s energy consumption and the energy consumption associated with building end-uses such as space heating, space cooling, ventilation, lighting, and so forth. Includes over 70 illustrative examples using algorithms to demonstrate how energy savings and greenhouse gas emission reductions may be estimated utilizing different strategies and equipment.
