Energy is the major driving force for the economy of any nation. The challenge for continuous generation of power to meet the ever growing demand is a daunting task, especially due to limited resources. This collection of peer reviewed papers contains original research articles in different areas of energy efficient technologies such as: Alternate Energy, Building Technologies, Automotive Technologies, Modeling and Design, Manufacturing Systems and Power Systems. We hope that the novel ideas presented in these papers will trigger more application oriented research in relation with latest technology to conserve and sustain energy.
