Abstract

The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of any country is linked with the energy usage. The per capita annual average energy consumption in India is around 1000 kWhs. The Government of India is taking necessary steps in increasing per capita energy consumption through the capacity addition during XI and XII Plans. So far, around 78,700 MW and 51,000 MW has been added during 11th and 12th Plan respectively. But, there is a power deficit of around 6% and energy deficit of around 5% exist in our Country. To fill this gap a huge capacity addition is required, which needs larger investments. One of the finest way of narrowing this gap is usage of energy in a efficient way, which requires minimum capital investment and short payback period. The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), Government of India is working towards reducing energy intensity of the Indian economy. The BEE co-ordinates with the designated consumers and agencies in performing the regulatory and promotional functions in improving energy efficiency assigned to it under the Energy Conservation Act, 2001. According to the current scenario of the increase in the demand, VISION 10MW which was inaugurated in our college has taken an effective initiative to reduce 10MW in 10 years by conducting electrical energy audit in house, industry and commercial building. The team has completed the audit in 25 homes, 2 commercial building and 2 industries till date. In this paper auditing has been done in an industry and the same has been analyzed using ETAP simulation software. The analysis has been done based on the single line diagram, energy consumption pattern, age of the equipments, etc. Accordingly suitable recommendations have been made to improve the energy efficiency and reduce the utility tariff bill of the industry.

Abstract

This paper presents Requirement Analysis of cloud Security in Distributed Systems, particularly looking at trust, confidentiality and privacy issues. The novelty of cloud is its ability to perform automated tasks in a way that was never envisaged. However, security and safety issues have been identified as key barriers, especially in distributed environments. Requirement Analysis of cloud Security in Distributed Systems. Cloud security is often seen as a technical problem. We argue that its solution needs both technical and management input. We find that cloud computing offers reliability and flexibility and its low cost makes it attractive, particularly to small and medium sized enterprises. We note that security technology must be adopted universally and often promptly. It requires both an organizational commitment and an individual commitment, which is most readily obtained if the technology places a low knowledge burden on users: that is, it is transparent or adds only a few, often-repeated, tasks. We note that providers have already achieved this in many cloud services. Organizations need clarity of what security is provided and who is responsible for breaches. They also need cloud providers to help them identify and recover from breaches. We consider why breaches have now become a hot topic, and provide a suggestion of how to mitigate the impact of these whilst meeting our management objectives and complying with the forthcoming EU General Data Protection Regulation.
