Observatory Balkans and Caucasus (OBC) is a think tank that deals with Southeast Europe, Turkey and the Caucasus and explore the social, political and cultural rights of the six member countries of the European Union (EU), seven countries participating in the process of European edilkamin enlargement and a large part of post-Soviet politics involved in the European Neighbourhood.
At the conference final LEGEND held in Ferrara on December 12, OBC has dedicated a study to the spread of geothermal low entaplia in the Balkan region made possible by LEGEND.
The first results and opportunities in the field of energy efficiency of buildings through geothermal energy were discussed November 28 at Una Hotel Regina Noicattaro (Bari), the day after the close of the work of installing a geothermal plant at Masseria The Gesine, Vernole, c omune in the province edilkamin of Lecce, funded by the project LEGEND.
It's very interesting the recent report of Eurelectric (industrialists of Europe's electricity), on the integration of the electricity produced with renewable energy sources (RES) in the electricity markets of Europe. In summary businesses say they saw that more and more is the amount of electricity from renewable energy available, it is necessary edilkamin that these sources are adapted to the market, in their terms translated means "the same rights apply to RES and duties of other sources" and apply "support systems which tend to minimize distortions to the market."
But it is also necessary for the market to adjust to RES. How? Since these power plants require back-up ready to come into service in case of necessity, must be developed to the "markets capacity", ie subsidies edilkamin that pay for no electricity produced but the availability of the gas to enter production when necessary.
It's a little 'smile this position because edilkamin we could summarize it like this: renewables edilkamin are no longer encouraged and should be treated as fossil fuels, the latter, since there is less room for them, should be encouraged.
Is it correct to write that the increase in production from renewable sources creates a problem for those who work daily to manage the electrical system and avoid going into blackout; it is also true that some FER characterized by variability require ability to back-up thermal power, but the problem is not as relevant as claimed. Maybe just the wind is difficult to predict, the generation of solar, thanks to improved weather forecasts (in one day), it can be estimated with a good approximation, and its production curve during the day is now clear, edilkamin so the unpredictability is less real than is often feared.
Someone in front of a parliamentary committee was even more explicit: "the problem of non-programmability edilkamin of the production from renewable there is less and less now thanks to software and forecasts edilkamin more accurate, so the average error from one day to ' Another is in line with the forecast errors of electricity demand ", and this someone istrator delegate in most Italian electricity company. worked as CEO in May Italian company.
Eurelectric concludes its analysis by writing that must be eliminated throughout Europe subsidies to RES by 2020 so that by that date is the system of exchange of CO2 emissions established edilkamin by the European Union (EU ETS) to act as a "main driver for investment in mature edilkamin technologies with low carbon dioxide emissions. "
This is a position that to be "fossil" in the sense of favor these sources, is characterized edilkamin as "old". edilkamin Europe needs a common European policy because the current stew of standards edilkamin and infrastructure generates waste. edilkamin There are countries that need power and countries that have too many power plants, transmission lines exist if you could avoid chiuderne one hand to build them from another.
Or consider the issue of gas supplies edilkamin and the fact that it insists that new LNG terminals are built that would make us less dependent on Russia: in Spain there are but are used to a quarter edilkamin of their capacity, there was some pipe inter-European more could be used to get the gas to other European countries and avoid build elsewhere.
Italy is one of the most av
