Topic 5: Power in India Introduction For any country to achieve sustained economic growth‚ the most important is the growth of infrastructure sector and hence the development of power sector. Energy in general and electrical energy in particular is the basic need for any kind of socio-economic developmental activities. There is direct causal relationship between energy consumption and G.D.P. growth in India as shown in the figure - 1. Figure [ 1 ] Per Capita Electricity consumption vs. GDP

Engineering Design for Sustainability TIDAL WAVE ENERGY Introduction Tidal power is a form of energy which derives directly from the relative motions of the Earth/Moon system‚ and to a lesser extent from the Earth/Sol system. Tidal energy is gained from the exchange of large bodies of water. Changes in water levels‚ and associated tidal currents‚ are due to the gravitational pull of the Sun and Moon. This makes Tidal Power completely predictable; furthermore‚ because it is created by relative motion

amplifier‚ (2) folded cascode amplifier‚ and (3) shunt feedback amplifier. The amplifiers were implemented in a standard 90-nm CMOS process and were operated with a 1V supply voltage. Low-noise amplifier measurements were taken for parameters such as power gain‚ noise figure‚ input matching‚ output matching‚ reverse isolation‚ stability‚ and linearity. Based on the employed figure-of-merit‚ the cascoded common-source low-noise amplifier achieved the best performance among the three with a simulated
