Practice Method

The aim of this study was to identify a best practice method to cost the health benefits of active transport for use in infrastructure planning in New South Wales, Australia. We systematically reviewed the international literature covering the concept areas of active transport and cost and health benefits. Original publications describing a method to cost the health benefits of active transport, published in 2000–2019 were included. Studies meeting the inclusion criteria were assessed against criteria identified in interviews with key government stakeholders. A total of 2993 studies were identified, 53 were assessed for eligibility, and 19 were included in the review. The most commonly studied active transport modes were cycling (n = 8) and walking and cycling (n = 6). Exposures considered were physical activity, road transport related injuries and air pollution. The most often applied economic evaluation method was cost benefit analysis (n = 8), and costs were commonly calculated by monetising health outcomes. Based on evaluation of models against the criteria, a Multistate Life Table model was recommended as the best method currently available. There is strong and increasing interest in quantifying and costing the health benefits of active transport internationally. Incorporating health-related economic benefits into existing regulatory processes such as cost benefit analyses could provide an effective way to encourage the non-health sector to include health impacts in infrastructure measures.

As wind power integration is scaled up year by year, the problem of abandoned wind electricity has become increasingly severe, and thus caused serious waste of energy. To solve the problem of abandoned wind electricity, this paper tries to heat power plant’s back water in electric boiler to absorb abandoned wind electricity. Taking a thermal power plant for example, the application of electric boiler in backwater system can bring great economic benefits and environmental benefits, and provide a reasonable way and solution for the use of abandoned wind electricity.

The aim of the paper is to test the effect of climatic conditions and management practices on the yield of two quinoa cultivars (Puno and Titicaca) and to analyze the economic benefits of quinoa productivity. The experiments were carried out during the 2017 and 2019 growing seasons in rain-fed conditions on a Serbian farm. The results of the two-year long experiments proved that the growing of the quinoa cultivar Puno and particularly the cultivar Titicaca in the agro-ecological conditions of Serbia would be remarkably successful from the aspect of agronomy (with the obtained average yield of 2.5 t ha-1 ) as well as from the aspect of economy (with the achieved average profit of 9,411 € ha-1 ). The obtained profit values indicate that the quinoa production in the Republic of Serbia would be more cost-effective than the production of the field crops which are already produced, particularly in the increasingly present arid conditions.

The Difference

With the increasingly prominent problems of resources and environment, thermal power enterprises in China are facing more severe challenges. To improve energy efficiency, a great number of thermal power enterprises implement the technical renovation of equipment. However, current methods cannot meet the needs of scientific and effective evaluations. In this context, the internal rate of return (IRR) is used as the main index to evaluate the economic benefits of the technical renovation of combined heat and power (CHP) plants. In order to improve the accuracy of the economic benefit evaluation results, the incremental cash flow is calculated through the incremental method, which is based on the existence and non-existence method, and the improved factor analysis method is utilized to eliminate the influence of price factors from markets that have no direct and definite relationship with the technical renovation. Then, the evaluation method is validated by taking a CHP technical renovation project in B city of China as an example. By comparing with other methods, the results show that the IRRs calculated by different methods are quite different, and the difference between the maximum and the minimum can reach 69.95%. The result of the method proposed in this paper is more reasonable and reliable and can effectively evaluate the economic benefits of CHP technical renovation projects.

Water saving in power plant is mainly manifested in the use of less water system technology and recycling use of water in two aspects. Based on the typical thermal power plant water analysis, summarizes the main water links, and according to the characteristics of each stage, and puts forward the corresponding water-saving scheme. On the other hand, through some effective physical chemical methods, can improve water quality, so as to achieve some technology requirements, in order to achieve water recycling. By adopting a practical solution, final implementation economic benefits, social benefits and environmental benefits of unity.

Grid Planning

To solve the problem for the complexity of the quantitative evaluation of grid planning economy, in accordance with the principle of cost-benefit analysis, and combined with the characteristics of UHV power grid, we construct an input-output index system which contains the planning costs, economic benefits, the benefits of interconnection, environmental benefits, social benefits and other benefits in this paper. And for the problem of comparison between unexpected output indicators and effective unit that exists in the index system, we improve the traditional data envelopment analysis (DEA), and build a quantitative evaluation model of grid planning economy based on the improved DEA model. Finally, use the data of the planning program of a UHV grid, to test and verify the established evaluation model. The results show that the model is reasonable and effective.

The Impact

Energy retrofitting is argued to be the most feasible and cost-effective method for improving existing buildings' energy efficiency. As a sustainable development, building energy retrofits require the consideration and integration of all three sustainability dimensions: environmental, economic and social. The objective of this study is to estimate and compare the sustainable impact of building energy retrofits to determine the maximum sustainable benefit when implementing different energy-related measures. The proposed analysis consists of integrating three approaches for evaluating these benefits. Economic benefits are measured by estimating the payback period of energy-related measures, environmental benefits are measured by estimating the CO2 equivalent saving per year due to the implementation of energy-related measures, and social benefits are measured by defining a “social impact index” that establishes the impact of energy-related measures on buildings' users. A case study is used to demonstrate the framework for four potential scenarios. The results show that for the case study, energy-related “controlling” and “upgrading mechanical system” measures have the highest sustainable impact among the identified energy retrofitting measures.

Approach Channel

Traditional reservoir operation mainly focuses on economic benefits, while ignoring the impacts on navigation. Thus, the economic operation of reservoirs considering navigational demands is of great significance for improving benefits. A navigation capacity evaluation method (NCEM), which evaluates the navigation capacity considering the influence of flow velocity and water level variation on navigation, is proposed to more effectively evaluate the navigation capacity. Based on two-dimensional hydrodynamic numerical simulation, the NCEM accurately calculates the navigation capacity according to detailed flow velocity and water level changes. In addition, a short-term multi-objective optimal operation model considering the upstream and downstream navigation and power generation is established. Then, the Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm (SPEA2) is used to solve the model. To verify the rationality of the method and model, they are applied to the case study of the Xiangjiaba reservoir. The results demonstrate that the method and model can not only provide a series of operation schemes for decision makers of reservoirs, but also direct the ship to pass safely through the approach channel, implying a certain practical value and significance as a reference for the short-term optimal operation of reservoirs in the future.
