Paper machines consume large amounts of energy and in most cases savings are possible. The drying section in the paper machine has been structurally modified through 60 years of operation, with limited use of the heat recovery system. The objective of the work is to assess the opportunities for energy conservation, through the application of energy management systems in the paper factory.Methodologies are applied for energy balance and heat integration, taking into account the requirements specified by the Cuban standard ISO 50001 for energy management systems in terms of energy review. Pinch analysis is applied using HENSAD and Aspen Energy Analyzer computing resources. The proposed energy performance indicators constitute a reference for the definition of an energy baseline. Energy conservation opportunities are identified with a total annual saving of $ 48,902 that makes it feasible to execute a project of $ 35 546, whose capital cost is estimated to be recovered in 2 years.

Local climate policy in Germany is embedded in a complex and dense multilevel system. While higher levels of governance confront cities with legal frameworks and regulations, they are not constrained to mere implementation of requirements from the national or supranational levels. Cities can influence and make strategic use of opportunities stemming from the multilevel structure to introduce innovative climate policy measures as best practices. Within a multilevel structure, they can engage in trans‐local action and become actors in various processes of upscaling. In this paper, we analyze the configurations of success for local climate innovations. We focus on the impact of cities' trans‐local and strategic activities within the European multilevel system in conjunction with city‐specific context conditions. The research is based on a concept‐structural framework that combines trans‐local activities and internal context conditions in a way that accounts for interactions between the two spheres. A comparison of the German cities of Darmstadt, Hagen, Offenbach, and Oldenburg indicates that configurations of strategic action in the multilevel system and beneficial local conditions explain the adoption of climate innovations. Therefore, such trans‐local action should not be understood as a sufficient condition of innovative climate policy measures, but as an enabling factor embedded in local contexts.

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.

The paper is an attempt to gather and analyse different approaches used in practice and literature towards energy security. A definition of this concept that suits best international comparisons has been identified. On the basis of existing literature and own reflections a comprehensive set of indicators was proposed and possibility of quantitative approach towards energy security measurement has been discussed. The indicators may be used for any comparative study of national energy systems made by international security and international relations researchers. The model will prove to be useful also for analyses of Asian economies. The paper is based on international and Polish literature. W artykule zestawiono różne podejścia do zagadnienia bezpieczeństwa energetycznego, stosowane w praktyce oraz w literaturze naukowej i poddano je krytycznej analizie. Na tej podstawie zidentyfikowano najbardziej trafną definicję pojęcia. W oparciu o istniejącą literaturę oraz własne przemyślenia, udało się zaproponować w miarę kompletny i uniwersalny zestaw wskaźników przydatnych do opisu bezpieczeństwa energetycznego oraz poddano pod rozwagę możliwość kwantyfikacji tych wskaźników. Materiał może posłużyć badaczom bezpieczeństwa międzynarodowego i stosunków międzynarodowych do wykonania analiz porównawczych systemów energetycznych poszczególnych państw. Zaproponowany model badawczy doskonale nadaje się do analizy gospodarek azjatyckich. Artykuł jest oparty na polsko- i obcojęzycznej literaturze przedmiotu. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
