This book was released on 1974 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work of the distribution department of an elec tric utility involves a great deal of medium to heavy construction. This work is vital to serve the energy needs of the public. An electric utility constantly builds, reinforces, and repairs electric distribution facilities. The material and labor used to accomplish this construction is expensive. Money in sufficient amounts is seldom, if ever, available to finance all proposed construction projects. Therefore, the cost of proposed projects must be estimated in advance, so that management may decide on an economic basis which projects will be authorized. The need for accurate construction cost estimates is imperative to the economic operation of an electric utility. This thesis delves into the problem of the design and implementation of a computer based cost estimating system to insure the accuracy and timeliness of estimates. In order to accomplish the design, a series of eight main program modules was written in the BASIC language for use on the General Electric Mark III foreground system. These programs access individually tailored sequential and random disk files using third generation real time computer techniques. The system was made available to eight field locations via remote terminal facilities. The immediacy and flexibility of the time sharing environment proved to be valuable selling points in the implementation of the new system. At this writing, the new estimating system has met with the approval of the field project engineers, and is well on the way to replacing the manual system. Input simplification has enabled the company to use less technically skilled personnel for the estimating function, with resulting cost savings. Results thus far far have shown the system to be flexible, timely, and accurate.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental costs of electric power generation are receiving increasing attention as an important input to planning and decision processes. Since the outstart of the discussion on the monetized environmental costs of electricity in 1988 a number of studies have been conducted on the subject, producing partially contradictory results. Simultaneously political action has resulted from the first stage on this discussion process. In Germany the higher rates which have to be payed to autoproducers based on renewable energy sources have been explicitly justified by the existence of external environmental costs of conventional electricity generation. At the same time some state regulatory commissions in the United States have introduced adders for environmental costs in the utility planning process. This book reports on the first international workshop on the subject, bringing together practically all experts in the field of research and political implementation from the United States and Germany, the two pioneering countries. The more than thirty contributed papers contained in this volume give the most comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the field. Some papers already outline the future course of research by giving an overview over some major research projects, which have just started.
