An Intelligent Power Management (IPM) is a combination of hardware and software that optimises the distribution and uses of electrical power in various applications, such as electronics, telecommunications, and energy systems. The primary goal of IPM is to improve energy efficiency, reduce power consumption, and enhance overall performance. While the installation of IPM involves up-front cost and ongoing maintenance, the technology can save money in the long term as a result of reduced electric bills, reduced downtime and prolonged hardware life.

Scientists are using the imperfections in magnetic fields that confine a reaction to improve and enhance the plasma in an approach outlined in a new paper in the journal Nature Communications. ...
