Renewable Energy : Power for a Sustainable Future
The provision of sustainable energy supplies for an expanding and increasingly productive world is one of the major issues facing civilisation today. Renewable Energy examines both the practical and economic potential of the renewable energy sources to meet this challenge.The underlying physical and technological principles behind deriving power from direct solar (solar thermal and photovoltaics), indirect solar (biomass, hydro, wind and wave) and non-solar (tidal and geothermal) energy sources are explained, within the context of their environmental impacts, their economics and their future prospects. Renewable Energy provides both perspective and detail on the relative merits and state of progress of technologies for utilizing the various 'renewables'.The analysis considers emissions, sustainability, cost implications and energy security, as political and economic pressures move society towards a low-carbon future.From an overview of basic energy conversion processes, through a discussion of the individual renewable sources, to a concluding examination of the prospects for their integration into national and international networks and the outlook for renewable energy, this book provides a valuable insight into prospects for the renewables. Online resources Renewable Energy is accompanied by online resources which include: For students:· Auto- marked multiple choice questions to accompany each chapter· Curated links to further information and up-to-date energy statistics.For registered adopters of the book:· Figures from the book: available to download for use in lectures

Depreciating Assets
Depreciating Assets is a new artists’ book by Jessica Vaughn investigating labor, diversity politics, and the material environment of the American workplace. With a new lens to the artist’s multidisciplinary practice, the project examines how affirmative action and other office equity measures are intersected by corporate infrastructure and, specifically, the physical layout of office space.Across four interwoven sections and related appendices, Vaughn assembles her photographs and critical writings alongside xeroxed images, diversity training video stills, and manipulated open source documents of the US Government. The project considers and distills the symptoms of late 20th and 21st century work culture produced by open office plans and modular architecture’s promise of malleability, compliance, and universality — provisions that bid for increased efficiency and productivity at the expense of visibility for Black workers and workers of color. Vaughn looks at how minimalist design gestures of the modern office (as envisioned by Rem Koolhaas’ formative essay “Typical Plan,” and Herman Miller’s Ethospace brochures) cannot exist outside the conditions of race, class and labor.The project also includes an interview between Vaughn and curator Magdalyn Asimakis, in which the two discuss the structural failings of arts and cultural institutions to practice equitable inclusion of artists of color, or to develop a language and praxis in support of diverse programming that extends beyond compliance, optics, and concerns of the market. Vaughn draws connections between the operations of these institutions to that of the corporate environment, and discusses the ways in which she manipulates their commonalities through the material of her work.In its design, Depreciating Assets intentionally replicates the style, materials, and colors outlined by the US Government Publishing Office—standards set to ensure design efficiency and the economical production of their internal documents. The book draws from the familiar copyshop palette of Venetian blue, tan pink, salmon, green and brown, and uses varied paper stocks in accordance with Paper Standard specifications. In doing so the project takes on and examines the homogeneity imposed by so-called ‘corporate efficiency measures,’ and the fundamental tension between diversity initiatives and one-size-fits-all approaches to office resources.The publication concludes with an afterword by the author contextualizing the project’s themes within the contemporary reality of global pandemic, economic precarity, and protests against racist state violence. Here Vaughn explores how in the absence of an adequate governmental response to structural problems, workplaces implement ad-hoc solutions (such as plexi-dividers) that still leave workers vulnerable and at risk — most acutely, Black workers who are often underinsured.

From when does assets count as exempt assets?
Assets are considered exempt assets when they meet specific criteria set by the government or relevant authorities. These criteria may include the type of asset, its value, and the purpose for which it is held. Exempt assets are typically protected from being seized or liquidated in certain situations, such as bankruptcy or legal proceedings. It is important to understand the rules and regulations governing exempt assets to ensure proper protection and planning for financial security.

What is the difference between net assets and operating assets?
Net assets refer to the total assets of a company minus its total liabilities, representing the company's equity or ownership value. On the other hand, operating assets are the assets that a company uses in its day-to-day operations to generate revenue. Operating assets are a subset of net assets and include items such as inventory, equipment, and accounts receivable. In summary, net assets represent the overall financial position of a company, while operating assets specifically pertain to the assets used in the company's core business activities.

What is the difference between fixed assets and current assets?
Fixed assets are long-term assets that a company owns and uses to generate revenue, such as buildings, machinery, and equipment. These assets are not easily converted into cash and are expected to provide benefits to the company for more than one year. On the other hand, current assets are short-term assets that can be easily converted into cash within one year, such as cash, accounts receivable, and inventory. Current assets are used to support the day-to-day operations of a business and are essential for its liquidity and short-term financial health.

What is the difference between current assets and fixed assets?
Current assets are assets that are expected to be converted into cash or used up within one year, such as cash, accounts receivable, and inventory. Fixed assets, on the other hand, are long-term assets that are not expected to be converted into cash within one year, such as property, plant, and equipment. In summary, current assets are short-term assets that are expected to be used up or converted into cash within one year, while fixed assets are long-term assets that are used to generate income over a longer period of time.
