Zavod za visoki napon i energetiku Fakulteta elektrotehnike i raču narstva u Zagrebu osnovan je 1934. godine, a u 2019. godini proslavio je 85 godina postojanja. U svojoj dugogodišnjoj povijesti ...iznjedrio je mnoge po znate stručnjake koji su ostavili neizbrisiv trag u elektroprivrednoj djelatno sti. Na zavodu se izučavaju i unapređuju područja proizvodnje, prijenosa, razdiobe i uporabe električne energije, obnovljivi izvori energije, napredne elektroenergetske mreže, problemi gospodarenja i trgovanja električnom energijom te područje nuklearnog inženjerstva. Zavod je vodeća institucija iz područja elektroenergetike u široj regiji, ima dugotrajnu suradnju s gospo darstvom, a prepoznatljiv je po znanstvenoj djelatnosti. Na zavodu se provo de istraživanja u skladu s najvišim međunarodnim standardima što je rezulti ralo s velikim brojem objavljenih radova u svjetski relevantnim časopisima, mnogobrojnim znanstvenim projektima te suradnjom s mnogim poznatim in stitucijama i sveučilištima.
Als 1948 die Trümmerlandschaften des Krieges den Traumlandschaften von der kommunistischen Zukunftsgesellschaft wichen, realisierte die Moskauer Führung mit den "Stalinschen Großbauten des ...Kommunismus" ein ehrgeiziges Erschließungsprogramm. Die damals weltgrößten Flusskraftwerke gestalteten Natur um und strukturierten Gesellschaft neu, so dass sich die Sowjetunion im anbrechenden Kalten Krieg als Supermacht inszenieren konnte. Die von GULag-Häftlingen gebauten Plangiganten produzierten nicht nur Strom, sondern auch Visionen, mit denen sich Stalin und Chruscev die Einbildungskraft der Sowjetmenschen erobern wollten. Seit den 1960er Jahren entwickelten sich die brachial industrialisierten Flusslandschaften an der Wolga und in Sibirien immer mehr zu ökologischen Notstandsgebieten. Der über Jahrzehnte propagierte Wertekanon der technik- und fortschrittsgläubigen Sowjetgesellschaft geriet ins Wanken.
Competition for energy resources worldwide will almost certainly increase because of population growth and economic expansion, especially in countries such as China and India, with large populations. ...In addition, environmental concerns with the use of certain energy sources add a complicating factor to decisions about energy use. Therefore there is likely to be an increased commitment around the world to invest in energy systems. The World Scientific Handbook of Energy provides comprehensive, reliable and timely sets of data on energy resources and uses; it gathers in one publication a concise description of the current state-of-the-art for a wide variety of energy resources, including data on resource availability worldwide and at different cost levels. The end use of energy in transportation, residential and industrial areas is outlined, and energy storage, conservation and the impact on the environment included.
At the end of the 20th century most governments of the world started adopting guidelines on the electricity market liberalization, and the liberal electricity market already operates in USA, ...Scandinavia and some EU Member States. In most cases the deregulated market has lived up to expectations but there were situations when priority was again given to the regulated market. The aim of this article is to assess whether the deregulated electricity market is a good choice for the countries with a small and imperfect market. Electricity is completely homogenous and it might not be warehoused and its price depends on the fuel used, so the examples of other economic sectors (natural gas, water, telecommunications, etc.) sometimes cannot be applied for this market. This paper analyses the advantages and disadvantages and the potential threats of the deregulated electricity market; moreover, the paper presents the main principles lying behind the electricity price setting and analyses whether the deregulated electricity market fits for Lithuania.
