Joint RES and Distribution Network Expansion Planning Under a Demand Response Framework explains the implementation of the algorithms needed for joint expansion planning of distributed generation and distribution network models, discussing how to expand the generation and distribution network by adding renewable generation, demand response, storage units, and new assets (lines and substations) so that the current and future energy supply in islands is served at a minimum cost, and with quality requirements. This book discusses the outcomes of the models discussed, including factors such as the location and size of new generation assets to be installed. It also introduces other issues relevant to the planning of insular distribution systems, including DR and hybrid storage. DR and ESS will play a much more significant role in future expansion planning models, where the present study stresses their relevance, including additional considerations to the planning model.

Gory horror written and directed by Eli Roth. When a group of American student activists travel deep into the Amazon rainforest, the campaigners discover they are not entirely alone in their new surroundings. With the aim of making a viral campaign against people destroying the unique environment, the students stumble upon a tribe of natives living in the rainforest after their plane crashes in the jungle. But things take a turn for the worse when they are captured by the dwindling native tribe, who later reveal themselves to be cannibals. Captured by the very people they sought to protect, the students find there's a high price to pay for the attention they craved, even if it was in the name of a good cause.
