That meansthat consumers have a real choice and the power to changetheir energy use on a revolutionary scale.

Demand side management through energy saving using induction cooker   Reducing loss in an electric utility can be solved not only through massive system reconfiguration but can also be through demand management which started these losses in the first place. An excellent example to this action can be answered by saving the usage of electricity particularly induction cooker in home and other establishments. A normal household family cooks their meals three times a day. Later, we will know how induction cooking can do this miracle.  

Resource Speaker: George Anders Ph.D For those who are near Toronto, Canada, Dr. Sanders will be conducting a 1-day seminar on Oct. 17, 2012. The overview of his seminar will focus on understanding losses in Electric Utility Distribution Systems particularly on identifying, estimating, and reducing losses.  To view the details and the complete outline of his discussion, just continue with this article.

Authored by: N. Rugthaicharoencheep and S. Sirisumrannukul Unbalanced loading in electrical networks creates higher losses compared to balanced lines having the same loads. Reconfiguring the set up of the loads reduces the line losses not only to its phase conductors but also to the neutral wire for four-wire system.

Authored by: Dickson K. Chembe, Member, IAENG   Power loss reduction through load balancing serves as an effective and efficient way of reducing loss in power networks. Also, among all the methods identified in reducing power loss this can be considered as the cheapest since this method only requires proper planning and strategy.
