- The global market for power rental systems is expected to reach USD 24.08 billion by 2020‚ according to a new research report by Grand View Research‚ Inc. Increasing grid instability coupled with power spikes in times of peak demand is expected to be a key driver for the development of the market. In addition‚ the increased focus towards reduction of peak power consumption in order to reduce electricity cost is expected to augment the growth of the market. Power rental systems are used in a variety

Biodiesel Fuel The biggest problem the United States faces today when we talk about becoming energy independent is replacing the gas we use to power our vehicles. When we talk about replacing gasoline as the fuel we use to power our vehicles‚ biomass‚ hydrogen‚ and fuel cells are the three most talked about alternatives. Biomass‚ which is organic material made from plants and animals‚ contains stored energy from the sun. Biomass in the form of bio fuels can be used to make the same products

Fossil fuels Oil 1) Oil is produced in Middle Eastern countries‚ Saudia Arabia accounting for 13.1 per cent of the world total‚ America 16.5 per cent and Africa 12.1 per cent. Although the Middle East has a lot of oil reserves not much is consumed. North America‚ Europe and Eurasia consume a lot of oil. This is due to the countries being MEDCs so they will need more fuel as the demand is higher. 2) The factors which cause oil prices to increase are from supply shocks (the OPEC oil embargo

Fossil Fuels which include Petroleum and Natural Gas were formed million years ago from the remains of plants and animals‚ are responsible 40% and 20% respectively for the world ’s energy. They were first discovered about 700-900 years ago‚ however since the first modern petroleum industry began in 1859‚ the demand for fossil fuels has escalated beyond our control. It had taken 50-300 million years to form‚ and yet we have managed to burn roughly half of all global oil reserves in merely 125 years
