Brian Fortenbery from EPRI presents the Industrial Design Guide (IDG). The IDG provides a strong technical basis for working with industrial end users in power quality, distribution, and economic development activities. The tool describes in detail such industrial processes as injection-molded plastics and CNC machining, includes electrical diagrams of the processes and sub-processes, and discusses the economics of process-associated downtime. The descriptions and drawings are interactive, leading the user to important power quality considerations, such as sensitive components, test protocols, solutions, and applications. This authoritative guide to industrial processes can be used to train new power quality engineers, refresh seasoned representatives, and enhance the credibility of all employees in the presence of end users, and the web-based format makes it easy for even novices to use.

This interview is in two parts.

Zbigniew Hanzelka from AGH University in Krakow presents his research group, the EPQU periodicals (Journal & Magazine), the Power Quality book as well as future trends on effective utilisation of electrical power.

Fabrice Schorr from Socomec presents here his vision about energy-efficient, power quality and energy storage, and their implications for utility grid frequency stabilization.

Energy efficiency is one of the key elements taken into account in datacenters and generally in the industry nowadays. The best practices in term of energy saving can be found on side losses that decreases the global efficiency of the quality energy supply.
