Postfordist energy policies? Desertec as a scenario towards a restructuration of energy supply within the EUMENA-region. In 2009 the Desertec Industrial Initiative (DII) was founded by several, predominant German enterprises including the NGO “Desertec Foundation”. The objective of DII is to organize the conditions for the realisation of the Desertec idea, which aims to supply, in a large scale manner, Europe with electricity produced in solar power plants in North Africa and the Arabic peninsula. The Desertec concept is playing with and combining different myths as the desert, the large-scale, ”megatechnic” vision and the reconciliation of the North and the South. Critics of Desertec argue that the project has the intention to impede an energy transition towards decentralized energy structures in Europe and that Desertec has a neo-colonial attitude. Both the Arab spring and the disaster of Fukushima have changed the discoursive landscape and the institutional conditions around the realisation of Desertec. The paper raises and responds to the question, whether Desertec can be seen as a Fordist or a Postfordist project according to the categories of the French regulation school. Additionally, the Desertec concept is reflected from a cultural geography’s point of view.

The article considers the possibility of using the surface of various reservoirs characteristic of regions when allocating land for lowpower solar power plants in Uzbekistan. When implementing low-power solar power plants in Uzbekistan, a certain amount of land resources is required (for installing solar panels). From the point of view of respect for natural capital (saving land resources), the method of installing solar panels directly above the surface of water basins based on the corresponding maps of water basins is technically and economically effective. The methodological basis of the research is the results of researchers work on the problems of land relations and land management. In the research, a systematic approach to the analysis of land use has been chosen, in which a variety of tools were used to determine the essence of the analyzed phenomena, processes and patterns. In recent years, industry has been rapidly developing in rural areas of the Yangiyul district of Tashkent Province of Uzbekistan. In this regard, the problems of effective use of land resources, especially targeted use of irrigated land, has become urgent. This means that in the future there will be problems when allocating land for the installation of low-power solar power plants.

The electricity industry has an important role in the economic growth and industrial dynamics in all countries. However, it is one of the main sources of environmental pollutants as well. Hence, environmental experts are always trying to reduce the amount of pollutants. This study aims to realize the relations between environmental capabilities and environmental strategies with environmental, financial and operational performances. Accordingly, questionnaires, by 39 questions, distributed among 103 participants, including environmental experts of the thermal power plants and thermal power company. Among 103 questionnaires, 70 qualified questionnaires were collected. The reliability of questioners was tested by Cronbach alpha criterion and the amount of this criterion (0.845) verified the reliability of the questionnaire. Also, the validity of the questionnaire confirmed through the Fornell and Locker methods and other factors. For testing the hypotheses of research, the method of structural equation modelling analysis was used. The empirical results show that: 1. The environmental capabilities have a positive impact on environmental strategies 2. The environmental strategies have positive impacts on financial, operational and environmental performances 3. The environmental capabilities can have positive effects on environmental, financial and operational performance through environmental strategies. These results confirm that focusing on environmental issues of thermal power plant activities, not only improve environmental performance, but also improve their operational and financial performances.

This article presents a remote management architecture of an unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) fleet to aid in the management of solar power plants and object tracking. The proposed system is a competitive advantage for sola r energy production plants, due to the reduction in costs for maintenance, surveillance, and security tasks, especially in large solar farms. This new approach consists of creating a hardware and software architecture that allows for performing different tasks automatically, as well as remotely using fleets of UAVs. The entire system, composed of the aircraft, the servers, communication networks, and the processing center, as well as the interfaces for accessing the services via the web, has been designed for this specific purpose. Image processing and automated remote control of the UAV allow generating autonomous missions for the inspection of defects in solar panels, saving costs compared to traditional manual inspection. Another application of this architecture related to security is the detection and tracking of pedestrians and vehicles, both for road safety and for surveillance and security issues of solar plants. The novelty of this system with respect to current systems is summarized in that all the software and hardware elements that allow the inspection of solar panels, surveillance, and people counting, as well as traffic management tasks, have been defined and detailed. The modular system presented allows the exchange of different specific vision modules for each task to be carried out. Finally, unlike other systems, calibrated fixed cameras are used in addition to the cameras embedded in the drones of the fleet, which complement the system with vision algorithms based on deep learning for identification, surveillance, and inspection.

Solar Pump

This service activity is the application of an innovative submersible solar pump in a hydro-organic greenhouse environment in Grangsil Jambangan, Malang Regency. This is motivated by the need for water that can only be obtained through deep wells with submersible pumps in hydro-organic greenhouses that already use solar power plants but have insufficient power. The purpose of this service is to provide theoretical and practical understanding for Tour conscious group (POKDARWIS) Jambangan members as managers of the hydro-organic greenhouse. The methods used include focus group discussions (FGD) and joint practice in developing solar power plants for submersible pumps. After the implementation of this program, there was an increase in the capacity of the solar power plants, which has been able to turn on submersible pumps, hydroganic circulation pumps, and other needs. In one day, the submersible pump only needs to be turned on for 2 hours and produces 4,572 liters of water, sufficient for greenhouse hydroganic needs and other needs. Another positive impact is that POKDARWIS Jambangan members have been able to manage and maintain PLTS for a hydro-organic greenhouse. The submersible water pump prototype for hydroganic agriculture at the greenhouse using independent energy is very practical and efficient so it is expected to become a prototype for modern agricultural facilities in the context of a national-scale food security improvement program.

By interconnecting nanomachines and forming nanonetworks, the capacities of single nanomachines are expected to be enhanced, as the ensuing information exchange will allow them to cooperate towards a common goal. Nowadays, systems normally use electromagnetic signals to encode, send and receive information, however, in a novel communication paradigm, molecular transceivers, channel models or protocols use molecules. This article presents the current developments in nanomachines along with their future architecture to better understand nanonetwork scenarios in biomedical applications. Furthermore, to highlight the communication needs between nanomachines, two applications for nanonetworks are also presented: i) a new networking paradigm, called the Internet of NanoThings, that allows nanoscale devices to interconnect with existing communication networks, and ii) Molecular Communication, where the propagation of chemical compounds like drug particles, carry out the information exchange.
