This paper reviews the process of adapting the Carbon Literacy for Museums Toolkit to develop a course specifically for the archive sector, Carbon Literacy for Archives, Records and Special Collections. This toolkit was launched to the sector in spring 2024. It discusses why carbon literacy (CL) is important, covering the benefits, co-benefits and what CL is. It examines the impact of carbon literacy training (CLT) on greenhouse gas emission and energy use reduction, and why CLT is so effective in generating the transformational behavioural change that is needed to create a sustainable future.

This paper presents an in-depth analysis of the classic Z-source topology for DC power system protection, an area previously unexplored in such detail. Using OpenModelica simulations, the study offers valuable insights into the Z-source topology's behavior, protection mechanisms, and energy dissipation processes. It includes detailed diagrams, switching states, and explanations of operating principles, supported by waveforms illustrating energy flow through the Z-source components. The findings demonstrate that the Z-source breaker effectively handles fault conditions by disconnecting the source from the load almost instantaneously, within tens of microseconds. The simulations confirm the theoretical models, showing that the Z-source topology efficiently dissipates fault energy through inductors, capacitors, and resistors, thereby protecting sensitive equipment. This thorough analysis enhances understanding of the Z-source topology in DC power systems and establishes a solid foundation for future research and practical applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a new model is developed by referring to the literature on Dutch disease and rent-seeking for explaining how a natural resource boom in the energy sector decreases national income and induces a resource movement effect under a rent-seeking monopoly. In such a model, it is shown that the resource movement effect certainly occurs during the boom where labor inputs will move to the energy sector from the services sector. Moreover, the boom facilitates rent-seeking and decreases national income. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper, it was analyzed how the angle of inclination and the azimuth influence the generation of a photovoltaic plant. The plants belonging to the 100 MW program, consisting of 30 photovoltaic plants distributed in Cuba, were analyzed. First, the plants with their current design were simulated and the results were compared with the measurements obtained in each plant. The comparison allowed validating the simulations, where the difference remained below 10%, in most cases. The next step was that different angles of inclination and an east-west orientation were analyzed. The results were compared with studies carried out in other parts of the world, where it is proposed that the angle of inclination and the east-west orientation as a new solution to increase the energy produced by a photovoltaic power plant, taking into account the geographical position, climatic conditions and the investment value or cost of the plant.

This paper presents a methodology for obtaining the voltage and current references that permits the modelling of Hybrid Cuk (HC) Converters. The passive sign convention when system elements absorb energy is used to derive the differential equations governing the behaviour of the converter. This allows the explanation of the operation principle of the converter that is performed through the switching states. The behavior of the converter is studied by means of an energy interchange analysis between inductors and capacitors. After the deduction of the references and operating principle, the differential equations (DEs) that allow the modelling of the converter are deduced. Finally, a comparison between the mathematical model and the circuital representation of the converter is performed in OpenModelica for validation purposes. The simulations' results allow to conclude that the obtained references and differential equations are coherent with the circuital implementation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Process Integration combine several processes to reduce consumption of resources and harmful emissions, becoming an important asset in ensuring the sustainability of industrial processes. This paper aims to set energy performance indicators of a cane sugar refinery. A procedure that includes the energy analysis and Pinch Analysis methodologies is applied, with the use of HENSAD. Targets and energy performance indicators, currently not reported for this refinery, contribute to the definition of an energy baseline and the systematic measurement of efficiency. There is an excess in thermal power duty of 32,5 MW with respect to the minimum heating duty, which determines the research into retrofit designs of the heat exchanger network. Annual savings of 1 010 571 USD estimated in energy analysis and heat integration make the evaluation of investment projects in the energy area feasible. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The energy transition process is reflected in the transformation of landscapes. The progressive incorporation of increasingly more modern energy technologies opens debates in European countries related to their landscape integration and the social perception. In Argentina, the energy landscapes have not been relevant enough as to be a subject of analysis in the academic field. Based on the lack of antecedents, this exploratory paper aims at considering the landscape as a geographical analysis category about the past and present use of wind energy. The objective is to study the patrimonial worthiness and the socio-environmental challenges, as the result of the transformation of the landscapes, by the materialization of the energy transition. To achieve this, it applies a qualitative methodology and different space-time analysis scales. The work reconstructs the heritage legacy of the wind from old low-power facilities for milling, water pumping and electricity production that are revalued by society. It also makes a preliminary analysis of the emerging wind landscapes after the start-up of large wind farms in certain regions of the country. The new landscapes created by the installation of wind turbines produce very diverse reactions in communities, ranging from acceptance to social rejection, including neutrality or indifference.

El siguiente artículo propone una reflexión hipotética a partir de anticipar un posible desplazamiento en el sistema financiero mundial del actual dólar-patrón hacia el patrón-energía en el que se basa generación y circulación de las criptomonedas. Considerando ciertos principios sobre el agiotaje que se derivan del White Paper se vaticinan algunos sucesos y, por lo tanto, tales o cuales movimientos de reacomodamiento social frente a ese nuevo modelo de sistema financiero mundial. El artículo comienza con una genealogía de esos sistemas reflejados en patrones del dinero mundial, luego desarrolla el vínculo entre criptomonedas y acceso y uso a la energía para concluir con los vaticinios de proyectar el escenario hipotético de desplazamiento del patrón-dólar al patrón-energía.

This paper aims to explore the intersections between the spatial configurations of disaster risk and its political, social, and cultural consequences. The article presents the results of the first phase of the field research, carried out between September 2021 and March 2022 in Vila Nova Esperança, a low-income community in the western periphery of São Paulo. The research originated from the ethnographic analysis of the access to energy infrastructure and services, defined as the object of study through the notion of energy space, ensuing from Setha Low’s work on ethnography of space and culture. The precarity marking the energy space extends to other dimensions of the inhabited space and its social relations, encompassing other fragilities related to disaster risk and the impacts of climate change. Emerging from the systematization of the histories of people and place is the permanent and intertemporal character of precarity, which despite the achievements of the community and the residents, presents itself as a political fact. The results combine the analysis carried out with data on urbanization in the periphery of São Paulo, being the ethnographic work based on the narratives of community members, together with the study of the spatial configurations of energy access. From this triangulation emerges the combination of the social construction of biophysical and social risk as a transversal element that shapes the main result of the article: the multiplication of forms and dynamics of the social production of risk as a process that goes beyond disaster risk and the impacts of climate change. In this sense, the phrase “normalization of precarity” in the title is a provocation, an invitation to look into the intertemporal permanence of precarity in the periphery of São Paulo.
