Water resiliency score – Is relying on freshwater to generate electricity a good idea?

Smart Energy, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14, P. 100142 - 100142

One commonly-used argument against fluctuating renewables is their unpredictability. In contrast, thermal power generation and hydropower are regularly presented as reliable dispatchable. However, droughts floods can render useless the share of infrastructure that directly depends on freshwater. this work, global sector analysed from an energy-water nexus perspective to evaluate its reliability in case severe water scarcity a per-power plant basis, proposing new method for combining it with stress scores. At country level, known individual plants paired regional projections 2020 2030 source bottom-up approach account capacities at risk identify points where dependence could system unreliable. The results show that, globally, about 65% generating freshwater-dependent. Moreover, placed low-resiliency group increases 9% total installed over 24% all scenarios. findings help guide development towards less water-dependent accelerate deployment low water-demand technologies.

Nexo agua-energía-alimentos: rentabilidad y riesgo en portafolio de inversión escenario postpandemia

Economía y Negocios, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 15(2)

Published: July 1, 2024

El objetivo principal de este estudio es evaluar la rentabilidad y los riesgos asociados al portafolio del nexo agua, energía alimentos (AEA) en el escenario pospandemia. Para ello, se empleó una metodología cuantitativa trans- versal, basada análisis variedad commodities que representan estos sectores, tales como bonos agua California; petróleo crudo Brent, gas natural, maíz, soja café. realizó mediante un algoritmo desarrollado Python, enfocado rentabilidad, riesgo Frontera Eficiencia Markowitz. Los resultados mostraron que, aunque existen oportunidades AEA, también presentan significativos para obtención dicha rentabilidad. Un hallazgo clave es- tudio a pesar creciente demanda recursos eficientes sostenibles, inversión sectores requiere gestión estratégica considerada. Se sugiere necesidad cuidadosa selección diversifi- cación portafolio, alineando las inversiones con principios sostenibilidad garantizar su viabilidad largo plazo. concluye destacando importancia desarrollar modelos predictivos más robustos aboga por investigaciones futuras integral dinámicas entre impacto mercados financieros.
