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.

The micro hydro power scheme (MHPS), as a practical realization of research project supported from Ministry of Science of the Republic of Serbia, is presented in the paper. MHPS was constructed on the Black Timok (East Serbia) at the deserted weir. MHPS can be used as a model for other similar sites with extremely low head. On this way, the contribution to approaching to Directive EU for renewable energy sources was done. The results of project are summed in the paper. The method of turbine type selection by use of nomogram is presented. The results of dimensions scaling of existing smaller turbine are given. On the base of these results, the turbine of 5 times higher dimensions was designed and made. The results of estimation and measuring the parameters of this turbine are compared. Designed and constructed powerhouse of MHPS, which is jointed to existing weir, is described. The results of energy efficiency and ecological effects analysis of MHPS are given in the paper.

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.

The Impact

The growth of renewable energy sources (RES) shows the desire of the government of Kazakhstan to meet challenges that affect the welfare and development of the state. National targets, government programs, policies influence renewable energy strategies. In the future, renewable energy technologies will act as sources of a green economy and sustainable economic growth. The state policy in the field of energy in Kazakhstan is aimed at improving the conditions for the development and support of renewable energy sources, amendments are being made to provide for the holding of auctions for new RES projects, which replaces the previously existing system of fixed tariffs. It is expected that the costs of traditional power plants for the purchase of renewable energy will skyrocket, provided that the goals in the field of renewable generation are achieved. This article provides an assessment of international experience in supporting renewable energy sources, as well as analyzes the current situation in the development of renewable energy in Kazakhstan and the impact on sustainable development and popularization of the «green» economy. The study shows that by supporting the development of renewable energy sources, economic growth is possible, which is achieved in an environmentally sustainable way.

The article is aimed at developing strategic directions and introducing regulatory measures for the formation of Ukraine’s energy policy on the principles of energy saving and the development of renewable energy industry. On the basis of scientific works, the main organizational-economic vectors of energy industry sector development are systematized, which are associated with the formation of a favorable socio-political climate regarding the priority of using renewable energy sources in the fuel and energy complex; development of effective methods of both the State-based and the market-based regulation by the world community; coordination of the strategy of sustainable development of the world economy. It is determined that the energy saving policy should be based on a flexible combination of the State-based regulation and the market environment for the formation of the most acceptable stimulation mechanisms in the specific economic and political situations, which allows for the greatest economic benefit. It has been found out that the implementation of energy saving processes is impossible without the mass use of renewable energy carriers, which are a universal resource for processing to the right types of energy, are marked by energy independence related to obtaining economic benefits and contribute to the creation of an ecological friendly environment. In the perspective, the energy saving processes, the transition of the national economy to wide implementation in the production of high-tech technologies and the use of renewable energy sources should become the determining factors of Ukraine’s energy strategy.
