Energy provision for low income or remote communities is a difficult challenge, with many still depending on polluting and costly fossil fuels.

Local energy generation is a key solution, but technical challenges need to be overcome.

This book provides a detailed explanation of the application of both BS 7671 and BS 7909 to events and other relevant industry guidance. It is a guide for all those involved in the design and use of temporary electrical and power systems, including but not limited to deployment at exhibitions, agricultural shows and outdoors fairs, concerts, theatrical events, film and TV broadcasting, festivals, as well as temporary buildings and structures. It illustrates what should be considered during planning and design, and goes beyond the scope of the regulations on important topics such as stage sets, equipment testing, and considerations for the electrical installations in venues that host temporary events.

Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) is a much-talked about term in the transportation industry and in transport policy. The goal of MaaS is a shift away from personally-owned modes of transportation and towards mobility solutions that are consumed as a service. Such solutions are typically enabled by digital technologies and platforms. MaaS systems might combine transportation services from public and private transportation providers, like train and carsharing services, through a unified portal to create and manage journeys, which users can pay for with a single account. MaaS offers travellers mobility solutions based on their travel needs.
