Long-term sustainability assessment of micro-hydro projects: Case

This work assesses the long-term sustainability of off-grid micro-hydro projects operating in rural indigenous communities. More specifically, four sustainability dimensions are analyzed: environmental, technical, socioeconomic and institutional, and specific indicators are proposed for each one.

Electricity sector in Venezuela

The electricity sector in Venezuela is heavily dependent on hydroelectricity, which accounted for 64% of the nation''s electricity generation in 2021. Besides hydroelectric power, Venezuela also relies on natural gas and petroleum, contributing 25% and 11%, respectively

Long-term sustainability assessment of micro-hydro projects:

Recently, a comparative analysis of renewable energy-based projects in Andean countries and microgrid-based projects in Venezuela has been developed (López-González et al., 2017, 2018a). However, very few studies have been published about the evaluation of all the sustainability dimensions in communities benefited by electrification projects

Long-term sustainability assessment of micro-hydro

In these countries, there is a large potential for hydroelectric production through off-grid microgrids, although not fully exploited. This work assesses the long-term sustainability of off-grid micro-

Sustainability and design assessment of rural hybrid

Off-grid hybrid microgrids based on renewable energy are an efficient option for providing dispersed rural populations with access to electricity. However, microgrids are still a minority option, as

Renewable Energy in Venezuela

At the moment, Venezuela''s energy infrastructure depends on hydroelectric power that sites like the Guri dam generate, which is located on the Caroní River. Most estimates place the percentage of Venezuela''s electricity at the Guri dam at over 50%, while some sources claim that as much as 70% or even 85% of the country''s power comes from

Venezuela: Energy System Overview

GOAL: to promote an understanding, on a global scale, of the dynamics of change in energy systems, quantify emissions and their impacts, and accelerate the transition to carbon-neutral, environmentally benign energy systems while providing affordable energy to all.

Long-term sustainability assessment of micro-hydro projects: Case

This work assesses the long-term sustainability of off-grid micro-hydro projects operating in rural indigenous communities. More specifically, four sustainability dimensions are

Venezuela

The Venezuela Plan for the National Electric System aims to integrate renewables in the power system by including it in medium and long-term strategies. It aims to develop the use of renewables within isolated rural communities including solar, small hyd

4 FAQs about [Micro energy grid Venezuela]

Does Venezuela have a micro-hydro energy mix?

The study evaluated the energy provided by micro- or mini-hydro, wind, PV, biomass or hybrid energy in some Latin American countries in 2012 and found that unlike the other nations evaluated, there were no reports of this kind of energies in the Venezuelan energy mix for 2012.

Does Venezuela need an energy transition?

It is unmistakable that Venezuela needs an energy transition to reach the goals of sustainability and poverty reduction. Based on the current national reality, the recommendations to improve the Venezuelan energy sector will be presented from two different perspectives.

What is the Venezuelan energy framework?

The Venezuelan energy framework Venezuela plays an important role in global energy markets. Along with the rest of Latin American countries, it has evidenced different stages on its energy evolution. The understanding of some relevant facts about this sector is needed to evaluate current conditions and challenges.

Does Venezuela have an energy crisis?

Some are successful in their attempt to optimize their energy resources while others are not. This is the case of Venezuela, which faces a contradictory energy performance. Despite its substantial available renewable and non-renewable energy resources, it presents a severe energy crisis.
