The computer industry at the level of global aviation carbon dioxide emissions policy and company set ambitious goals Hamburg – worldwide over one billion computers are used, up to the year 2012 this number is doubled, so the results of the study by U.S. market research company of Gartner. The little helpers in the profession is essential for about 58 percent of workers, according to the Federal Office of statistics, he is also in 70% of all German households. The poor environmental record is available on the shadow side of this electronic flood: many of the device are out of date and true current Fellows. Annually, the 30 million private PCs consume electricity amounting to 360 million euros already in standby mode.

No wonder, then, that the policy pulls the emergency brake. No more than one watt per hour a decision which must according to EU Commission, consume computer in stand-by mode from 2010. This stand-by default is the first regulation, which decided in the framework of the eco-design directive the EU Member States reported the tagesschau. Goal is to reduce the environmental impact throughout the entire life cycle through better construction of the computer. “But the so-called concept of Green IT encompasses far more than just economical devices such as Ulrike Kalle, to report, white chemistry expert from Greenpeace: the manufacturer must perform the entire life cycle of their products: from the extraction of raw materials through production to the recycling of old devices”, so Kallee. Greenpeace campaigned since 2005 for eco-friendly electronics. Many manufacturers have since changed their environmental policies.

The company Apple about last year as a response to the Greenpeace campaign green my Apple announced, refrain from PVC and brominated flame retardants. Also the companies Bizerba has recognized from Balingen, that Green IT is not only environmentally friendly, but also lucrative savings offers. Air conditioners use to cool the devices in the data center with free-cooling function in the cold season the outside air for cooling. Additional chillers are used only on hot days. This energy consumption can be considerably reduced”, explains Matthias Harsch, a spokesman of at Bizerba’s Managing Director, in an interview with the online magazine NeueNachricht. And that seems needed. Because according to a Gartner estimate the IT industry produces as much carbon dioxide emissions as the global aviation. The estimates are based on the total energy that produce PCs, servers, telephone systems and networks in offices worldwide. “In the next 5 years of financial, environmental, legal and risk-bearing pressure on enterprises is stronger to make their organization green”, as Simon Mingay, Vice President of Gartner, in a report by Green-IT. Only a few managers had so far recognized the pollution caused by them.

A Rostock confidence woman of the energy cooperative Freudenberg invited interested in the hotel in the Hasenheide to a briefing to a briefing of the energy cooperative of Freudenberg in Beiersdorf-Freudenberg – Rostock on Wednesday evening. The Board traveled from Brandenburg and several Rostock had gathered, to learn how to produce diesel fuel for 0,40 EUR NET and distribute. Ali Partovi has plenty of information regarding this issue. Because that’s the point: companies of members of the cooperative or individuals produce their own diesel quasi and detach itself completely from the fluctuating world market prices. Especially companies with high fuel consumption, such as E.g. forwarders, feel an ever-growing cost pressure, they can no longer absorb or pass on to the customer for a long time. After the presentation of the objectives and opportunities of membership by Board of Directors Frank Knauer, a lively discussion, which naturally got down to details ensued.

How is it, for the security of the deposits why must Members of the cooperative are deposits, what about the availability of the fuel? Patiently answered all questions the staff and presented the cooperative thoughts to the fore again. Because it is the commitment of the individual members that decides on the success and profit. Board of Directors Frank Knauer: We address everyone, who wants to jointly produce diesel with us and thus permanently reduce its costs. That can be of your own fleet or the own cogeneration plant. But we can only inform and invite. Calculate and opt must everyone.” It is also clear that it is connected to an entry in a cooperative always with a financial commitment. The deposits of its members finally financed those four plants in Brandenburg and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern which produce the diesel fuel that is delivered exclusively to members under the brand name CEHATROL. Be fair, it must be added that all deposits with min interest rate of 3.8% and exits to the cooperative of course again be paid.

In this respect, the risk is very manageable and more likely to see the deposit as a solid investment. To those who are interested in the diesel and that a membership in the energy cooperative of Freudenberg, but fear the sometimes difficult path to the Bank, Frank Knauer is a one-time offer: who can not immediately pay its deposits, which the cooperative offers the possibility of a zinslosen(!) “Pre-financing up to two-thirds of the amount.” Made possible by powerful investors in the background, who want to support the project or the search for new members in this way. The words apparently fell on fertile ground. Subsequently, several interested parties reported already. Concrete talks will follow in the next few days. Who is also interested in the diesel Tun and the energy cooperative of Freudenberg, will find many facts on.

Independent journal for renewable energy launched raised the issues of energy supply and energy policy are available in the public discussion for years at the top. Whether compromise as a consumer issue due to sharply rising energy prices or as environmental topic, because more and more cars, houses and power stations blow out more greenhouse gases and thus survival on the blue planet. In the major media, it is in the print, radio or television appears the energy issue but only whenever major events bring big headlines. Only if climate change also hurricanes, floods and crop failures with it, which costs thousands lives, report the newsrooms between Flensburg and Konstanz. So consumers, economy and politics at any time all get information, dealing with sustainable energy supply, there REjournal: a free and independent online magazine that currently and competent has the energy issue in focus. Tenants and homeowners want to know what you in the new energy performance certificate should note, investors need all this planning security for giant wind turbines at sea and solar megawatts out of the desert and much more visit REjournal.

SolarEnergy Berlin presents high-tech from the renewable energy sector – rising demand for technical translations for the energy sector which is booming around renewable energy technology sector. More than 13,000 trade visitors are expected to the SolarEnergy in Berlin, the partners Messe BioGas world expects 6,000 visitors from all over the world. At the same time increases the need for high-quality technical translations for the industry. The 12 SolarEnergy takes place in Berlin from 23-25 April 2013. On the most important international trade fair for renewable energy, State of the art heating and energy efficiency technologies presented the audience.

The partner event BioGas world informed investors from agricultural biogas technologies and new solutions for decentralised energy supply at the same time. The sustained recovery of this industry and the rising domestic demand for innovative energy-saving solutions are reflected also on the translation market. Every third translation job now come from the energy, solar, or photovoltaic industry,”confirmed Abu Ali Jacobs, CEO of B2B Jacobs translations. The translation from Bruggen years ago has focused on the translation of technical documents, patents, operating and maintenance instructions and manuals. More than 700 technical translators working freelance for B2B Jacobs translations.

By means of training and continuous quality control, the agency ensures the performance of their master translator, as well as the quality of the translations, which increasingly deal with photovoltaic and solar thermal, heat pumps, wind turbines or biomass. The rapid upward trend began with the increased use of renewable energies for the German nuclear phase-out and continues. The debate on the renewable energies Act (EEG) and the proposals for reform of Federal Environment Minister Peter Altmaier keep alive the interest of the economy and the consumer. Jacobs: The harsh winter heating costs in every household has driven upwards, the need for affordable, sustainable heating solutions continues to grow. The industry will not ignore this demand.” B2B Jacobs translations renewable energy anticipates an increasing order volume in the industry. The specialist for technical translations is very well prepared for this development.

The energy-saving home appliances soon take hold in our apartments. The technical foundations are already created for the use of intelligent home appliances. Many manufacturers now offer energy-saving alternatives to traditional household appliances. That sounds so almost as if the devices would lead a life of their own and had an intelligence, humans may make use. In fact, so much. No doubt, it’s about artificial intelligence. This intelligence is the agility and security in the House. As E.g.

serve@home by Siemens has revolutionized the home appliance market. What is done. There are a number of network-enabled devices. They have a small slot. Into this comes the system interface. But, the actual operating system is the gateway, which is conducted via the local power grid. Via W-LAN, the gateway to the PC, the PDA or tablet or via GSM communicates with the phone. Now, the customer can now already 11 devices via this wireless communication system connect and control.

The price per unit is 50. All connected devices are mapped on the screen as a control center. So, you can check whether the washing machine in the basement is finished, without having in diesehinabsteigen. This saves time and energy. But the system can be much more since 2005. Peter Asaro addresses the importance of the matter here. You can control the shutters, the light and the temperature about. So, the House gets more security. The complete safety technology about the system can be connected at all. At a glance you know evening where to delete still a light in the House, where possibly a window is open. With a camera, you can monitor all rooms. Each device that you want to work within the system must be connected to the interface HZ319000. The energy-saving household appliances have a chute provided specially. Per info module, they are then informed about the State of the device. Buying to an installation package, you can control everything from the PC. This consists of the central gateway and the Powerline interface. Who not as a complex system install, can obtain individual intelligent devices. For example the Miele smart grid devices which only then remove the power consumption when the current is especially favorable. If so household appliances, such as the washing machine or dishwasher, countercyclical, so mainly at night, automatically record their operation, valuable resources can be saved. This SD-ready devices are equipped with a module, that receives the data via the power lines, which guarantee a reasonable power consumption? The network load to the relevant (current) peak hours in the morning and in the evening, can be optimized by, and much more importantly is spared for most consumers of the money bag. Much is still wishful thinking, but in the interests of ecology, you should closely track this technology and not dismiss as spinning.
