Book Synopsis Wind Energy in Colombia by : Walter Vergara
Download or read book Wind Energy in Colombia written by Walter Vergara and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2010-07-30 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wind regime in Colombia has been rated among the best in South America. However, under the current circumstances, and on its own, the interconnected system would not likely promote wind power. This report is targeted to analysts, planners, operators, generators and decision makers in Colombia and other countries in the region and provides a set of policy options to promote the use of wind power. The potential instruments assessed in this study include financial instruments, government fiscal mechanisms, and adjustments to the regulatory system. The single most effective policy instrument to promote wind power in Colombia consists on valuing the firm energy offered by wind, its potential complementarity to the hydrological regime and enabling wind power an access to reliability payments.

Download or read book Geothermal Energy written by Mary H. Dickson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-04 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geothermal energy refers to the heat contained within the Earth that generates geological phenomena on a planetary scale. Today, this term is often associated with man's efforts to tap into this vast energy source. Geothermal Energy: utilization and technology is a detailed reference text, describing the various methods and technologies used to exploit the earth's heat. Beginning with an overview of geothermal energy and the state of the art, leading international experts in the field cover the main applications of geothermal energy, including: electricity generation space and district heating space cooling greenhouse heating aquaculture industrial applications The final third of the book focuses upon environmental impact and economic, financial and legal considerations, providing a comprehensive review of these topics. Each chapter is written by a different author, but to a set style, beginning with aims and objectives and ending with references, self-assessment questions and answers. Case studies are included throughout. Whilst written primarily for professionals and students interested in learning more about geothermal energy, the book also offers those new to the field and the general geothermal community an opportunity to understand and review the potential of this exciting alternative energy source.

Book Synopsis From Landfill Gas to Energy by : Vasudevan Rajaram
Download or read book From Landfill Gas to Energy written by Vasudevan Rajaram and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2011-12-15 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Converting old landfills to energy producing sites, while capturing emitted greenhouse gases, has faced numerous technical, financial and social challenges and developments lately. Also, the re-mining of landfills to recover useful land in dense urban areas and proper landfill closure has been a subject of discussion and investigation. Designed as an overview text for landfill management from cradle to grave, this volume’s content stretches from the fundamentals to the rather indepth details. By putting down their joint international experience, the authors have intended to both guide and inspire the user for his or her landfill project. Introducing the fundamental concepts of landfill gas management and its needs and importance in the present world energy scenario, this accessible reference volume presents key landfill gas management techniques at regional, national and global levels. In detail, it gives an account of the recent technologies available for landfill gas treatment and its utilization. It summarizes landfill gas prediction models developed in various parts of the world and details their adequacy in various field conditions. Covering both landfill remediation aspects and economic considerations while selecting a landfill gas to energy utilization project, the reader gets familiar with the practical aspects of converting a landfill site. Also, the challenges faced by municipalities and landfill operators in recovering landfill gas as an energy source are described, and solutions are suggested for solving them effectively. These include practical execution problems, governmental issues, and developing policies to encourage investment. The volume also includes various case studies of landfill gas-to-energy utilization projects from around the world, which can be reviewed and customized for the reader’s own application with the help of extensive reference section. Intended as an overview text for advanced students and researchers in the relevant engineering and technology fields (Environmental, Civil, Geotechnical, Chemical, Mechanical and Electrical), this book will also be particularly helpful to practitioners such as municipal managers, landfill operators, designers, solid waste management engineers, urban planners, professional consultants, scientists, non-governmental organizations and entrepreneurs.
Book Synopsis The role of renewable energy in meeting the climate change targets in Brazil and Colombia by : Daniela Aguilar Abaunza
Download or read book The role of renewable energy in meeting the climate change targets in Brazil and Colombia written by Daniela Aguilar Abaunza and published by Universidad Externado. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change is a topic of worIdwide concern. Nevertheless, climate change, not being seen as a priority amongst other issues, has not yet been strongly incorporated into the environmental or economic policy agendas of developing countries. Nevertheless, evidence shows that some of the most adverse effects of climate change will be experienced by developing countries whose populations are the most vulnerable and least likely to be able to adapt to climate change. For instance, although Latín America countries represent only 9 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions, the social and economic impact of those emissions is significantly greater than in developed and emergent countries. This phenomenon is called "double inequity" where the impact of climate change is felt most deeply by poorest societies who are not the main emitters.In this respect, it is important that developing countries, especially South American countries, integrate climate change issues into their decision-making process, where energy policy plays an important role in their development. The main drivers behind contemporary energy policy are.
Book Synopsis Success Factors of Renewable Energy Projects in the Colombian Off-grid Zones from a Community Perspective by : Florine Angele
Download or read book Success Factors of Renewable Energy Projects in the Colombian Off-grid Zones from a Community Perspective written by Florine Angele and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of renewable energy (RE) sources represents a feasible option for rural electrification in a country like Colombia with vast territories not connected to the national grid but a relatively good availability of RE resources. This potential has been already recognised on a national and international level and first pilot projects exist. Nevertheless, the available descriptive and evaluating information of those projects is substandard. Therefore, this thesis outlines three RE pilot projects in Colombia, which differ in technology, location and cultural context in order to develop success factors that might guide future project developers. A particular focus on the community (end user) perspective allows detecting success factors that correspond to the interdisciplinary socio-technical character of such RE de-livery systems. The research proceeds in three main steps: 1) project outlines, 2) measuring community satisfaction with semi-structured surveys and 3) project evaluations and success factor development. The findings show that from a community perspective RE projects in the Colombian off-grid zones should a) let the community assess the technology autonomously, b) use selected recipients and effective communication channels for technology instruction and information, c) define a local management concept at an initial project stage, d) equally involve all community members and respect local cooperation forms, e) make feasible promises regarding the project results and f) establish a tariff system in an adequate decision-making context and set prices that consider the quality of electricity and the financial ability of each user.
