While energy infrastructure can contribute to economic development goals, they differ in potential to contribute to local livelihoods. In discussion of distributed energy scenarios and trade-offs it is important to consider the importance of rural energy access especially in a state where the total rural population is so significant. Scale and localized needs are important considerations in ene...

Renewable energy provides 20% of electricity generation worldwide. Hydroelectric power is the cheapest way to generate electricity today. It provides almost onefifth of the electricity in world. Hydropower is produced in more than 150 countries. The main objective of this paper is modelling and analysis of the effects of the power system stabilizer (PSS) for load frequency control (LFC) system ...

We conduct a benefit-cost analysis of a relicensing agreement for two hydroelectric dams in Michigan. The agreement changed daily conditions from peaking to run-of-river flows. We consider three categories of costs and benefits: producer costs of adapting electricity production to the new time profile of hydroelectric output; benefits of reductions in air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions;...

Renewable energy is an important topic in China as the country experiences increased wealth and energy demand. Historically, hydropower has been a valuable source of renewable energy production in China, and will continue to be as the Chinese increase hydroelectric facilities by 2020. Using provincial level data from 1980-2010, this paper estimates the relationship between the percentage of hyd...

This paper aims to determine the interaction of commercial energy distribution, including installed capacity hydroelectric energy, generation, thermal nuclear and with economic progress in Pakistan over 1970–2019 period. Both linear non-linear autoregressive distributed lag models were used ascertain symmetric asymmetric short- long-run effects. The findings from model analysis revealed evidenc...
