SUMMARY DRAFT 2: ENGIE'S district heating and cooling system

In the webpage "District heating and cooling systems," (2013) ENGIE illustrates how impactful and effective its sustainable heating and cooling systems have been to the world. As stated, ENGIE successfully provides long-term solutions and comfort for its clients and the world. In addition , ENGIE further demonstrates the backbone of its operations  involving numerous technologies applied worldwide  relative to the versatile heating and cooling methodology it adopts. Consequently,   energy consumption, CO2 emissions, and energy bills have decreased. ENGIE states that it utilizes renewable and recyclable energy to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of heating and cooling. To validate its claims, ENGIE further exemplified its contributions by highlighting its projects for different countries and how their systems have accelerated the fight against environmental degradation. ENGIE carefully elaborated on the importance of its sustainable strategies to ensure greater a

SUMMARY DRAFT 1 : ENGIE’s district heating and cooling system

  The article "District heating and cooling systems" illustrates how ENGIE establishes itself as a leading international provider for sustainable heating and cooling systems while meeting the continual comfort necessities of its diverse pool of consumers. The article further demonstrates the backbone of ENGIE's operations relative to the versatile heating and cooling methodology involving numerous technologies applied worldwide. As a result, energy consumption, CO2 emissions, and energy bills have decreased. Following this, ENGIE states that it utilizes renewable and recyclable energy to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of heating and cooling. The biomass used for heating and recycled water by the Seine river for cooling in Paris would be a case in point. Another case would be the first city-scale centralized thermal energy distribution network in Lisbon, which serves many buildings while continuously reducing CO2 emissions. Thus, the general overview of the

Subject: Self Introduction Dear Professor Brad, My name is Mu'izzuddin, and this is an introductory letter that will allow you to get to know me better. I am a year one student from class T5 of your communication module, pursuing a degree in Sustainable Infrastructure Engineering. In 2018, I attained a diploma in Electrical Engineering with a Minor in Business Management from Ngee Ann Polytechnic. In my final semester, I interned at Poh Meng Engineering and had the opportunity to perform the role of a Quantity Surveyor. I followed my supervisor to various construction sites to analyze potential drawbacks in installing electrical components for different buildings. This job scope required me to refine my networking skills as I constantly interacted with engineers from the various echelons. This skill further benefitted me when I served my country as a soldier and instructor in the Artillery formation. I honed my interpersonal skills, which became my strength as I constantly in

Summary on "Critical Thinking: The Soul of communication"

Based on the excerpt, it is a known fact that there is a profound interrelationship between communication and critical thinking. As mentioned on the website, "If communication is defined as a meaningful exchange of information, thoughts, and feelings between two living creatures, critical thinking is the engine that provides this meaning." From this statement, we can further derive that the art of communication and critical thinking could be systematized into one coherent skill. As a matter of fact, without the clarity of thought from critical thinking, effective communication could potentially be hindered. A leader must exercise these skills as problems will constantly arise, sometimes in the most unpredictable manner, testing how well they respond under pressure. A leader can compose himself with good critical thinking, which allows him to generate effective solutions. Subsequently, he has to communicate effectively to relay the plan to his team for execution. Thus, it is c

Post on Quotation for SIE 2016 : Effective Comm

"While all engineers should have good communication skills, global engineers face additional challenges, making effective communication an imperative."  Debra Kraft, Careers Content Writer, Demand Media (2016) Debra Kraft made the statement because she knows the art of effective communication is essential for an engineer. Their work is complex and technical, but not everyone they work with has the same technical expertise, so effective communication is important. This ensures that all project participants are on the same page despite the complexity of engineering itself.
