In this paper it has been presented the results about the study with high pressure steam schemes for the energy integration of a sugar mill with a pulp paper factory. The hypothesis for the integration is that it is possible to produce heat and electricity for both factories with the biomass of the sugar cane. This study includes the diversification of the production whit an ethanol factory for the pulp. The by bibliography, energy, material and cost balances are the main subjects for the best alternative of integration with high pressure schemes. The scheme with 61 ata and 440 °C was the best technically but not in the economic sense. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper presents a case study of a hydroelectric facility with water depletion problems. The objective was to evaluate the use of the available hydro‐energy potential by applying an integrating methodology contributing to the improvement of energy efficiency and the use of water resources in the process of transforming hydraulic energy into electricity. The results demonstrate the existence of overconsumption of available water and oversizing of the mechanical transmission, both of which constitute operating problems. The solution to the problem, although simple, provided a methodology that integrates knowledge of fluid dynamics, hydraulic turbines, electrical machines and machine elements. The analyzed problem constitutes an integrating exercise for undergraduate and postgraduate teaching in the area of Hydro energy and the rational use of water resources. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a multisectoral analysis of the increase in electricity prices in the Mexican economy, applying a pricing model and using the most recent input-output matrix. Increases in the manufacture of petroleum derivatives and coal, as electricity sources, are also analyzed. Additionally, increases in the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity are studied. The key findings obtained from this analysis show that a 40% increase has the most significant impact on sectors such as air transport (7.76%); land passenger transportation (6.04%) -except rail-, tourist transport (6.04%) and on the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity (5.58%). This increase in turn impacts all subsectors of the national economy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a mechanism to cooperation in large scale resource social dilemmas. The mechanism was developed considering the Colombian electricity crisis (1992-1993). The paper offers a dynamic hypothesis as extension of the small scale resource social dilemmas theory to large scale situations that integrates the effects of delays, expectations, and perceptions about cooperation. This work also presents simulations that suposes the dynamic hypothesis as explanation of the variation of the electricity demand in the 1992 1993 Colombian electricity crisis. The results explain also the variation of demand after and before shortages in that crisis. As a conclusion, we suggest that perception, and expectations in dynamic complexity situations should be considered as a fundamental issue for explaining cooperation [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper we will discuss the construction, use and operation of an electrostatic polarity detector that was designed with the purpose of making interesting and fun an introductory class about the existence of electric charges and their interactions. The polarity detector uses a simple circuit and a design that can be printed on a 3D printer. So the reader can easily build their own detector after buying and assembling some electronic components at low cost. The body of the detector has the form of a hammerhead shark whose eyes light up according to the sign of the charge of the object to be measured. This fun form of shark allows to build entertaining activities where students can investigate the fundamental properties of interactions between electrically charged objects. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective is to analyze the current problems and the environmental impacts of the Brazilian energy matrix and some alternatives for diversification. The methodology used was the bibliographical and documentary research in national and foreign authors, as well as technical studies and other fields of knowledge beyond legal, because of the transdisciplinary nature of the subject. The paper results understand that the Brazilian energy basis is not sustainable and that the decision-makers and the society shall implement an energy transition to alternative renewable energy sources and also need public policies to diminish consumption. There must not be one single choice of source, but decide based on determining the impacts from renewables and on evaluating its pros and cos. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to identify the key determinants of Chilean spot power price and assess their relative importance in recent price decline. To do so, we use a VAR model with weekly data between the years 2015-2016 and variance decomposition analysis to attribute variations of marginal cost to different shocks. The results show that while the availability of water for hydropower and lower fuel prices are important for explaining power spot prices, they only account for 50%-75% of the marginal cost's variance, leaving 25%-50% to other factors, such as more renewable generation and lower generation from oil sources, among other factors.

This paper analyses the Spanish residential demand of a bundle of goods conforming the basic services of the households (i.e. electricity, natural gas and drinking water) in 2012. The analysis is made using a QUAIDS model modified in order to consider the censoring in the consumption of natural gas following the approach of Tauchmann (2010), one of the latest advances in this field. The results show that the demand for electricity and drinking water is less sensitive to the variations in prices and household's income than that of natural gas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper the role of hydropower in electric power systems is discussed, in the framework of the Spanish system, where a high penetration of intermittent power sources exists, showing a clear trend to increase in next years. The development of new hydro power facilities will be likely based on pumped storage hydro power plants. Hydropower is a mature and efficient technology for large-scale energy storage and therefore represents a key contribution for the integration of intermittent power sources, such as wind or photovoltaic. The benefits obtained from load shifting may be insufficient to compensate the costs of a new plant. However, the obtained revenues can significantly increase through its contribution to providing ancillary services. This would require an appropriate design of the electricity market. The contribution of pumped storage hydro power plants to balancing services can be extended to off-peak hours, using either variable speed pumping or the hydraulic short-circuit configuration. The need to mitigate hydrological effects downstream of hydro plants may introduce some operational constraints which could limit to some extent the services described above. However environmental effects caused by pumped storage hydro power plants are expected to be significantly smaller. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In the current socio-economic context, derived from the economic crisis, many fine and diverse nature are the challenges that Community Institutions face. In this regard, the commitments in the field of environmental protection and regulation of the energy should be revised to accommodate them to the new game board. So are currently in the process of approval of the amendment of Directive 2003/96, this is, the European regulation on taxation of energy products and electricity. By this, we analyze a key mechanism that certainly will be a major step in the policy of the Union, not only in economic, but also environmental. It will serve as a starting point for future environmental taxation and is one of the most ambitious reactions to combat the economic crisis in the medium and long term. So, in terms of the methodology used in the analysis, indicate that it is based on a thorough and comprehensive study of European documentation from working papers and impact studies, analysis of statistics (Eurostat) to previous attempts to legislate, for finally, and once we have an overview of the EU position, go to question the text presented.

The contents of this paper address the following issue: What are we teaching with textbooks in Compulsory Secondary Education? First of all, we reviewed the works that have been published in Spain about these materials and, despite their importance in our educational system, we have not found many studies dealing with those textbooks published during LOE Reform. We focus on some essential elements in these methodological resources: the structure of lessons and their types of contents selected (concepts, procedures and attitudes) through the analysis of learning activities submitted by six textbook publishers known, on the Technology block "Electricity and electronics" 3° ESO, and its suitability or not to current regulations in CARM. The results show some of the shortages and deficiencies these textbooks have, and that, in general, they never comply with the official curriculum guidelines. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents an analytic framework for the formulation and evaluation of automatic generation control in the Ecuadorian Electrical System (SNI) taking like reference mark the approaches CPS-1 and CPS-2 of NERC. The article is divided in sections that they explain in detail the approaches CPS of NERC, how the limits of these approaches are calculated having in consideration the specific conditions of the electric Ecuadorian system (section 2), and how the approaches are applied in the evaluation of the automatic control of the generation in SNI of Ecuador keeping in mind the interconnection with Colombia (section 3). The minimum value of BIAS is also suggested to fix in the Ecuadorian system for the execution of the approach CPS-2. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
