Renewable Energy Storage Systems, Kyle Herman
Renewable Energy Storage Systems, Kyle Herman
Dr. Kyle S. Herman
This paper investigates various storage options for renewable energy, in an attempt to deter the insidious effect of the common notion that renewable energy is intermittent and thus cannot compete with fossil fuel or conventional energies, the object of this paper is to reveal a few basic storage options for renewable energy which are already widely deployed.
Carl Schmitt's Critique Of Liberalism And The European Union, Kyle S. Herman
Carl Schmitt's Critique Of Liberalism And The European Union, Kyle S. Herman
Dr. Kyle S. Herman
I invoke Carl Schmitt's Critique of Liberalism outlined in "The Concept of the Political" to better understand the European Union (EU) as a governmental institution. It is my contention that the EU is a liberal institution, with the sole intent to drive economic policy while ignoring identity, similar to what Schmitt rails against in his critique of liberalism. For that reason I demonstrate how the EU fits well into the mold Schmitt laid out to identify liberal politics. Therefore I use Schmitt's critique as both a starting point for defining the European Union and, by superimposing his critique onto the …
Danish Wind Energy Innovation, Kyle S. Herman
Danish Wind Energy Innovation, Kyle S. Herman
Dr. Kyle S. Herman
This article compares the exceptional Danish wind energy innovation system with the system employed by the US government. The underlying assumption about innovation systems in the US is that they are technologically driven, and past technological advances can be built upon leading to break-through innovations. However in Denmark, innovation was driven from citizens and relied on no break-through technologies, but rather a piecemeal process of collective, smaller innovations. For wind energy, this process was far more successful than the technologically driven innovation system in the US.
