The Impact

PurposeLiterature shows that the economics of early failures in maintenance and electric utilities have not been deeply analyzed. This study aims to focus on quantifying the economic impact that early failures in current transformers have on total maintenance costs. The empirical study is conducted in a regional transmission division of an electric utility located in Mexico.Design/methodology/approachThe utility's database was accessed to collect 219 maintenance records. Clustering techniques were used to identify early failures from a bimodal distribution of failures. Confirmatory goodness-of-fit procedures followed the analysis, and finally, direct and opportunity costs were estimated by adapting the cost-of-quality (PAF) Model.FindingsAround 11% of all maintenance activities are triggered by early failures, and they account for up to US$2.2m during the eight-year period under study, which represents 16% of total maintenance costs. Additionally, opportunity costs represent close to two-thirds of the total costs due to early failures. This was obtained after finding and validating a clear-cut border of 3.5 months between early failures and the rest.Originality/valueFailures in energy grids and power transmission can have a large economic impact on the power industry and the society in general. Thus, the maintenance function in equipment such as current transformers is a crucial entry of the budget of any electric utility. This study is one of the very few that highlights the magnitude and importance of direct and opportunity costs derived from early failures.

Pendekatan penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskritif dengan cara wawancara dengan informankunci dan melakukan focus group discussion (FGD). Hasil yang diperoleh dari penelitian ini adalahpenangkapan bibit lobster sudah menjadi mata pencaharian utama nelayan di Lombok Tengah danLombok Timur dan meningkatkan kesejahteraaan rumah tangga nelayan. Penangkapan bibit lobstersemakin berkembang karena para permintaan akan bibit lobster masih terbuka lebar dan bibit lobster yangmudah tertangkap diperairan Lombok Selatan tanpa menggunakan alat tangkap yang modern. Dampaksosial ekonomi yang ditimbulkan oleh Permen KP No 1 Tahun 2015 bagi nelayan penangkap bibit lobsteradalah menurunnya pendapatan nelayan karena tidak dapat lagi menjual hasil tangkapan dibawah 300gram dan berdampak kehidupan nelayan seperti menjual barang-barang yang dimiliki untuk memenuhikebutuhan sehari-hari, pendidikan dan kesehatan.Strategi pengelolaan perlu melakukan pendekatansosial. Pentingnya pendekatan sosial agar implikasi kebijakan publik membawa perubahan yang positifpada masyarakat. Pengelolaan keberlanjutan bibit lobster yang dapat diberlakukan untuk memperkayaPermen No 1/2015 tanpa harus merusak lingkungan dan meningkatkan taraf hidup masyarakat pesisiradalah perlu mengatur waktu menangkap, mengatur kuota yang diperbolehkan ditangkap, mengaturukuran yang boleh ditangkap yang syarat pemanfaatan tertentu berdasarkan ukuran tersebut.Title: Strategy of Sustanibility Seed Lobster Management in LombokThe purpose of this research are to find out ecological, social and economic aspect of seed lobstercapture fisheries generally; to find out ecological, social and economic impact of Ministry Rules Number1 2015 about Lobster (Panulirus spp), Mud Crap (Scylla sp) and Swiming Crap (Portunus pelagicusspp) and to formulate management stategy for uphold sustainaibility of seed lobster The approach ofthis research using destrictive method and collect the data by depth intervew with key informan andconduct focus group discussion (FGD) The result of this research is capture of seed lobster give impactto economic household and become main activity of fisherman.

Analysis of Growth Poles and Spatial Autocorrelation in Kalimantan: An Empirical Study of 55 Districts, 2000–2012The paper identifies which districts in Kalimantan that become the growth poles and whether there has been spatial autocorrelation in 55 districts during 2000–2012. This study also explores which economic sectors will be leading sectors. The social-economic data were collected for 55 districts using quantitative methods, in particular: typology of Regent/City, spatial autocorrelation, overlay analysis, and structural transformation. The study finds: (1) there are 4 cities as the growth pole; (2) the economics growth concentration concentrated geographically in the eastern and western; (3) the mining sector is a leading and competitive sector; and (4) structural transformation does not occur in all districts.Keywords: Growth Pole; Typology of Regent/City; Spatial Autocorrelation (Moran’s I and G Statistics); Overlay Analysis; Structural Transformation AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi kabupaten/kota di Pulau Kalimantan yang akan menjadi pusat pertumbuhan dan apakah terdapat autokorelasi spasial di 55 kabupaten/kota selama periode 2000–2012. Data dalam penelitian ini berupa data sekunder yang dikumpulkan dari data sosial ekonomi 55 kabupaten/kota menggunakan metode kuantitatif deskriptif dan alat analisis: tipologi Kabupaten/Kota, autokorelasi spasial, analisis overlay, dan transformasi struktural.

Southeast Asia country are mostly classified as developing country. One of the aspects that ASEAN concern is the energy poverty problem. Based on the statistics known, around 127 million people in the SEA facing lack of access of electricity. Besides that, 228 million people highly depending traditional biomass to fulfil their daily needs. Myanmar is one of the sixth poorest country in the SEA. The access of electricity in Myanmar are low and experience slow improvement over a decade. Energy policy had been drafted and implemented by Myanmar government. However, the result is no significant. This paper aims to analyze the social economic impact on the energy consumption of Myanmar. The aspect of analyze include energy use, foreign direct investment, population growth, industry value added, GDP per capita growth and trade. Multivariate analysis method adopts which includes descriptive statistics analysis, unit root test, Johannsen cointegration analysis, vector error correction model and Granger causality test. The result shows unidirectional Granger causality for energy consumption with all the aspects. Analyzed data play important role in the future policy planning. Policies such as renewable energy policy, reducing energy prices, taxes and subsidies can help in increasing energy consumption which will bring up other social economic.
