By 2020, the electricity production plummeted to 74.5 TWh, a drastic 43% reduction with respect to the peak of 132.5 TWh registered in 2013. The reasons behind the collapse of Venezuela’s electricity sector are multifactorial and widely described in the literature. However, there is a lack of discussion on how to overcome the electricity crisis, considering the new opportunities provided by the ongoing energy transition paradigm. In this paper, a review of existing views to recover Venezuela’s electricity system is provided. Two public-available detailed plans: the Venezuelan Electricity Sector Recovery Plan (VESRP) and the National Assembly’s Country Plan Electricity (CPE) are described and analyzed in detail. It is concluded that both proposals are pragmatic attempts to restore the reliable hydrothermal model that prevailed until 1998. However, there is a lack of insight about the economic and environmental opportunities of building a decarbonized electricity matrix in account of the existence of huge renewable energy resources. Fulfilling a balance between reconstructing Venezuela’s historic electricity system and building a new decarbonized system is of major significance. Urgent humanitarian needs and the demands of Venezuelan citizens call for the restoration of electricity supplies as fast as possible, but also with a modern system that ensures a low long-run marginal cost that enables competition and ensure economic growth.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":35642,"journal":{"name":"Electricity Journal","volume":"36 9","pages":"Article 107351"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138713460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Commercial and industrial entities are playing active roles in ancillary services markets, providing crucial grid support. Efforts are expanding to engage smaller users through third-party aggregators. However, many initiatives retain opt-in structures, limiting customer engagement.

Through coding of policy documents, the study evaluates how policymakers have framed the policies, differences in framing between states with 100 % and non-100 % RPS targets, and variation in framing connected with political party and partisan votes.

The novel automatic voltage adjustment technique was called inverse maximum power point tracking (iMPPT). The proposed control strategy consists of a modified maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm (more precisely the P&O method). In this case, the modified MPPT technique establishes the minimum value of the input absorbed power of a consumer load served by a switched-mode power supply (SMPS). The iMPPT adjusts the input power by modifying the input voltage of the main power supply. The served loads are connected to the variable power supply via an interfacing power electronics converter that performs the automatic voltage regulation function (AVR). The optimal value of the input voltage level can be achieved when the input power of the automatic voltage regulation converter is at a minimum. In that case, the energy conversion efficiency ratio is at a maximum, and the overall losses related to the front-end power stage are at a minimum. The proposed technique can also be considered a Maximum Efficiency Tracking (MET) method. By performing the inverse operation of a maximum power point tracking algorithm on the input demanded power of a switched mode power supply (SMPS), the optimum input voltage level can be determined when the maximum energy conversion ratio (related to a given load level) is achieved. The novel proposed iMPPT method can improve the energy conversion ratio from 85% up to approximately 10% in the case of an output power level of 800 W served by a synchronous buck converter at the input voltage level of 350 V. The total amount of recovered power in this situation can be approximately 100 W.","PeriodicalId":35642,"journal":{"name":"Electricity Journal","volume":"84 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136358078","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Customers affected by ROFR laws do not realize the cost savings and other benefits of competition in transmission line selection, including superior cost containment and innovative grid modernization solutions. In addition, uncertainty about the legality of transmission ROFR laws–what the Iowa Supreme Court has called “crony capitalism”--does not promote a stable investment environment for new transmission infrastructure. Instead of enacting and continuing to endorse transmission ROFRs, states would better promote cost-effective grid modernization by encouraging competitive bidding selection processes for new regional transmission lines. Cost-effective transmission planning requires regulators to balance a broad range of factors in permitting and cost recovery for projects. State regulators commonly use such approaches to evaluate the purchase of power generation from competitive sources.
