This chapter documents and examines how BMW Group Korea has fostered progress in sustainable mobility through the BMW i project. The BMW i project initiated by the BMW Group in Germany is an innovation to build an electric city car designed for urban use and to ensure that the materials,...

This paper presents a detailed optimization analysis of tower height and rotor diameter for a wide range of small wind turbines using Genetic Algorithm (GA). In comparison with classical, calculus-based optimization techniques, the GA approach is known by its reasonable flexibilities and...

This article describes how the renewable energy sector is increasing in size and wind turbine technology has improved. With the development of internet technology maintenance efficiency has improved. Maintenance is a core activity of the production life cycle since it accounts for 60 to 70% of...

"This study reviews the prospects of wind power at the global level. Existing studies indicate that the earth's wind energy supply potential significantly exceeds global energy demand. Yet, only 1 percent of the global electricity demand is currently derived from wind power despite 40 percent...
