Hybrid AC/DC microgrids facilitate the procedure of DC power connection into the conventional AC power system by developing the distributed generations (DGs) technologies. The conversion processes between AC and DC electrical powers are more convenient by hybrid systems. In this paper, an energy management system (EMS) for a hybrid microgrid network is proposed due to the optimal utilization of...

INTRODUCTION Emergency medical technician (EMT) or paramedic (EMTP) certification requirements for flight nurses (FNs) providing on-scene patient care vary. We surveyed those requirements and evaluated the relationships between flight team composition or program location and FN EMS certification. METHODS Telephone survey of all 184 rotor-wing programs responding with a nurse to scenes RESUL...

Schools play a vital role in creating a greener future. They will likely be the first place most students encounter determined efforts to conserve energy and water or to reduce waste. The method used in this article is comparative and matching method, by using ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001 and ISO 50001 standards.  Implementing energy management along with other standards is the main objective of pres...
