Mere Existence

Sustainable development, as a generally accepted concept of modern society, implies the protection of the environment as one of the basic goals. This goal is achieved, among other things, through the use of renewable energy sources and energy efficiency. The improvement of energy efficiency and application of renewable energy sources should be incorporated while preserving the economic interests of the state. In order to harmonize these interests, the state must introduce the policy in the field of energy, which will simultaneously take care of both the environment and the economy. Among the most important instruments of such a policy are legal regulations. The Republic of Serbia has an extensive and thoroughly structured system of regulations in the field of energy efficiency. The mere existence of regulations in this area is not enough. It is only a necessary precondition for their consistent application, as well as control of the application by inspection bodies.

<p>The integration of renewable energy sources in modern society has been given priority as these sources are regarded environmentally friendly. However, the variability of natural energy sources, combined with that of energy consumption, demands a different management of the energy system. In this work, we investigate the uncertainty of all variables combined, in order to take this variability into account in energy management.</p><p>Acknowledgement: This research is conducted within the frame of the undergraduate course "Stochastic Methods" of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA).

Energy Sources

This article reviews that flow batteries can turn intermittent wind power from a utility manager’s burden to a green and reliable energy source. Customers and the popular press have made it exceedingly clear that they expect wind, solar, and other renewable energy sources to play an increasingly important role in generating the electricity that powers modern society. This desire is often driven by concerns about air quality, public health, and energy security, among other factors. For a utility planner, any intermittent source is not dispatchable. A dispatchable energy source can be scheduled for use at the planner’s convenience. Among renewable energy sources, hydroelectric and geothermal facilities are also dispatchable, within the natural limits of the resource availability.

Over 90% of Uganda's power is generated from renewable sources. Standardised Implementation Agreements and Power Purchase Agreements create a long-term relationship between Generating Companies and the state-owned off-taker guaranteed by Government. The COVID-19 pandemic and measures to curb the spread of the virus have triggered the scrutiny and application of force majeure (FM) clauses in these agreements. This article reviews the FM clauses and considers their relevance. The authors submit that FM clauses are a useful commercial tool for achieving energy justice by ensuring the continuity of the project, despite the dire effects of the pandemic. Proposals are made for practical considerations for a post-COVID-19 future which provides the continued pursuit of policy goals of promoting renewable energy sources and increasing access to clean energy, thus accelerating just energy transitions.
