Green manufacturing is part of the continuous improvement strategy and green energy is indispensable to carry out green manufacturing because manufacturing is energy intensive. Green energy manufacturing is not easy to carry out with conventional means, but with the introduction of nanotechnology, many technical bottlenecks of green energy manufacturing can be resolved. This paper discussed the applications of nanotechnology in green energy manufacturing, especially in the manufacturing of several typical green energy such as solar energy, nuclear energy, biomass energy and geothermal energy, and then pointed out that nanotechnology was helpful to eliminate the technical bottlenecks of green energy manufacturing. Finally, with looking forward to the future, conclusion was drown that by the use of nanotechnology in green energy manufacturing, the supply of green energy would go up to a great new level and the green energy manufacturing would get remarkable progress.

Decentralized Energy

Nowadays decentralized energy supply and the energy security are becoming more involved. We should increase the share of renewable in the energy mix, addition to improve the energy efficiency. Hungary is not an abundance of fossil resources it is particularly important in the materials and energy-saving technologies, waste recovery, increasing the share of environmental energy. Our country has outstanding opportunities many areas for example, solar energy, geothermal energy, so we need to devote more attention to renewables in the future.

Natural Characteristics

There are many forms of alternative energy, such as: the biomass energy, geothermal energy, hydraulic energy, wind power and solar energy. Each form has its natural characteristics and its own exploitation conditions. Thus, the choice of the best resource does not only depend on the provided energy capacity but also on other criteria. In order to select the energy to develop, our survey recommends the multi-criteria method for the best selection.

Quantification Analysis

The research was tailored to optimize the design of a hybrid system that is powered by wind and solar energy in sustaining the power requirements of the Transient Electromagnetic Method (TEM) instrumentation. The issue addressed by the research was the unsustainability aspect of the batteries during TEM data collection. Therefore, the research tried to come up with an alternative that involved making power from wind and solar resources to power the TEM equipment. The research design began by doing a quantification analysis of both wind and solar resources in the geothermal area. In addition, a terrain and security analysis was done. Lastly, a hybrid system was designed considering its component specification that was governed by the wind and solar characteristics of the geothermal area under study. The sole aim was to solve issues faced with one form of green energy, geothermal energy, with other forms of green energy, wind and solar energy. The end result was the design of a revised final hybrid system that was able to sustain the power requirements of the TEM equipment during data collection in a geophysical survey with the available natural wind and solar resources in the Olkaria Geothermal field. From the analysis, it was evident that design of the hybrid system will primarily depend on the availability of the wind and solar resources in the area under study and the power requirements of the application being powered by the hybrid system.

Hierarchy Process

The environmental problem of climate change is an issue that needs to be addressed worldwide. As the electricity-generating power sector is the largest contributor of CO2 in the country, low-carbon technologies or sustainable energy systems are being considered as viable alternatives to reduce the CO2 emissions from this sector. These are fossil-based power plants with carbon capture and storage (F-CCS) technology, nuclear energy (NE) and renewable energy (RE) technologies, particularly solar energy (SE), wind energy (WE), hydroelectricity (HE), geothermal energy (GE) and biomass (BE). However, successful implementation of any of these CCMOs depends not only on the technical and economic aspect but also the socio-political aspect of the project. This study therefore proposes an analytical decision modeling framework to evaluate these options by incorporating the subjective judgment of stakeholders. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to structure the problem and quantify the relative preference of each option with respect to four criteria namely environmental effectiveness (EE), economic viability (EV), technical implementability (TI), and social acceptability (SA).Results from the decision model indicate that the most important criterion is environmental effectiveness, and the least important is social acceptability. With respect to environmental effectiveness, their most preferred CCMO was solar energy whereas their least preferred is nuclear energy mainly because of the risk posed by the generated nuclear wastes. With respect to economic viability, their most preferred CCMO was geothermal energy, and the least preferred was nuclear energy. With respect to technical implementability, the respondents gave the highest preference weight on geothermal energy and the least preferred is nuclear energy. With respect to social acceptability, the most preferred was wind energy and again, the least preferred was nuclear energy.

Research and surveys have been conducted to find out data and information on the implementation of education and training (DIKLAT) in order to improve the performance of diverse personnel. Basically the implementation of education and training is intended to increase the mastery of the skills and knowledge of personnel in an effort to improve personnel performance. Measuring the performance of diverse personnel is important in overall management, in order to know each personnel's performance and find the best alternative for all deficiencies, because each personnel hasdifferent abilities and personalities.Performance measurements carried out on an ongoing basis provide feedback which is important in continuous improvement efforts in achieving success in the future.

Regional Sustainable Development

In this paper, the author focuses on the fundamental hypothesis that the adoption of a concept of regional sustainable development and the use of renewable energy sources are preconditions to organising an acceptable regional tourism offering based on an eco-philosophy The renewable development of tourism regions is the basic framework for research regarding opportunities for introducing renewable energy sources such as hydro energy, wind power, solar energy, geothermal energy, and biomass energy. The purpose of this paper is to indicate the real opportunities that exist for substituting conventional energy sources with renewable ones and the role of renewables in regional development from economic, environmental and sociological viewpoints. It should also be noted that renewable energy sources have a strong regional importance and can contribute significantly to local employment.
