About the author
Peter O’Kelly’s career as a professional engineer began at the Electricity Commission of NSW, Australia. He later spent eight years with Kraftwerk Union (now Siemens PG) in Germany, working on the design, operation and simulation of nuclear power stations. After a further three years of simulator design and operator training in France and Brazil he returned to Australia and founded Costec Pty Ltd, a developer and manufacturer of operator training simulators for fossil-fuelled power plants. Through a merger and public float, Costec became part of Techcomm Group Ltd and for two years the author was Head of its Power and Simulation Division. In 2002 he founded Costec Systems Pty Ltd, a designer of operator training systems and engineering consulting company, and remains its CEO. He earned a B.E.(Elec), M.Eng.Sc., and Ph.D. from the University of NSW Australia.
