The available waste-to-energy potential from agricultural wastes in the department of Córdoba, Colombia

There is a large potential for biomass-based renewable energy production Colombia which mostly remains untapped, accounting for a marginal 0.8% of the electricity production. Moreover, Córdoba is a department with important developments in agriculture and agroindustry, where significant amounts of biomass wastes are generated. In total, these wastes have a yearly energy potential of 548 for the use of anaerobic digestion, and 1159 GWh per year using direct combustion. These energy potentials can yield 126 GWh/year of electricity using anaerobic digestion, or 260 GWh/year using direct combustion (i.e. 9 to 18% of the current electricity demand). However, power generation systems based on direct combustion for biomass wastes are economically feasible only for the lower investment costs available in the market, while anaerobic digestion is feasible for the low and average investment costs available in the market. Moreover, the biogas potential is equivalent to 1.4 times the energy demand required to replace firewood for cooking in 32% of the department homes that use firewood. More investigation is needed to more accurately define the potentialities of biomass wastes for energy applications in the department, for more effective promotion of its implementation.

Role of oil price in fiscal cyclicality in Saudi Arabia

This research probes the role of economic growth, trade openness, and oil price on government consumption growth to verify the type of cyclicality in Saudi Arabia from 1971 to 2018. The cointegration test of Pesaran (2001) is utilized to test the cyclicality hypothesis with augmented critical bound statistics developed by Kripfganz and Schneider (2019). We corroborate the long and short-run relationships in the fiscal model of Saudi Arabia. Further, procyclicality is proved in the long run and countercyclicality is corroborated in the short run with a 1-year lag effect. Moreover, government revenue has a positive effect on expenditure. However, oil prices and trade openness could not affect government spending.

Influence of energy sector corporations on the corporate control functions of cities

In this paper, we present a index of potential for selected cities based on revenue from sales, net profits, assets, and market value for selected sectors of the economy (CCI). Research has shown that the energy sector is one of the leading sectors in the world economy, both in terms of corporate financial performance and as a whole. However, the energy sector is a dominant sector in relatively few cities around the world (Beijing, Moscow, Houston, the Hague). At the same time, the energy sector is considered not very stable relative to other sectors of the economy. Given the increasing importance of the largest firms in this sector in shaping the command and control function of cities, it would be reasonable to combine the forecasting of their financial performance with a focus on its impact on the command and control function of cities in order to evaluate patterns associated with this function for leading cities in the world.

Changes in demand and supply of the crude oil market during the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on the natural gas market

Based on the results of the analysis, hence some evidence is found that the crude oil market affects the natural gas market in Indonesia through a combination of changes in demand and not through changes in oil supply during the Covid-19 pandemic. The uncertainty of oil supply due to the Covid-19 pandemic has made the oil market shift to the natural gas market and increased the price of natural gas as the main substitute for oil. Meanwhile, changes in demand in Indonesia during the Covid19 Pandemic affected crude oil and gas prices, causing similar fluctuations in oil and gas prices.
