This document summarizes a research paper that analyzes heterogeneity in energy expenditure and carbon productivity within industries. It finds that there is significant variation across plants within industries. This has implications for the efficiency of environmental policies that target entire industries, as they may impose disproportionate costs on some plants. The paper uses census and energy survey data to calculate productivity distributions for different industries and measures of dispersion within each industry. It concludes that energy productivity is more heterogeneous than other factors of production and open questions remain around the welfare effects of policies like carbon tariffs that do not account for within-industry differences in abatement costs.
Falling Renewable Power Generation Costs support the Global 100%RE Campaign's...Michael Taylor
Falling renewable power generation costs make the goals of the Global 100% RE campaign (see their website for more details http://go100re.net/) not only technically feasible, but increasingly economically feasible for a growing number of locations.
What are the true costs of solar PV, wind power, hydropower, biomass for power and geothermal? IRENA's database of over 9000 utiltiy-scale projects and over 200k small-scale solar PV systems provides insights into this question and others.
To support policy makers, IRENA is also extending our analysis to costs and we will launch IRENA's PV Parity Indicators in Q3 2014. These will help policymakers track PV competitiveness and make informed decisions about the support of solar PV.

what is the future of Pi Network currency.DOT TECH
The future of the Pi cryptocurrency is uncertain, and its success will depend on several factors. Pi is a relatively new cryptocurrency that aims to be user-friendly and accessible to a wide audience. Here are a few key considerations for its future:
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram if u want to sell PI COINS.
1. Mainnet Launch: As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, Pi was still in the testnet phase. Its success will depend on a successful transition to a mainnet, where actual transactions can take place.
2. User Adoption: Pi's success will be closely tied to user adoption. The more users who join the network and actively participate, the stronger the ecosystem can become.
3. Utility and Use Cases: For a cryptocurrency to thrive, it must offer utility and practical use cases. The Pi team has talked about various applications, including peer-to-peer transactions, smart contracts, and more. The development and implementation of these features will be essential.
4. Regulatory Environment: The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies is evolving globally. How Pi navigates and complies with regulations in various jurisdictions will significantly impact its future.
5. Technology Development: The Pi network must continue to develop and improve its technology, security, and scalability to compete with established cryptocurrencies.
6. Community Engagement: The Pi community plays a critical role in its future. Engaged users can help build trust and grow the network.
7. Monetization and Sustainability: The Pi team's monetization strategy, such as fees, partnerships, or other revenue sources, will affect its long-term sustainability.
It's essential to approach Pi or any new cryptocurrency with caution and conduct due diligence. Cryptocurrency investments involve risks, and potential rewards can be uncertain. The success and future of Pi will depend on the collective efforts of its team, community, and the broader cryptocurrency market dynamics. It's advisable to stay updated on Pi's development and follow any updates from the official Pi Network website or announcements from the team.

Resume
• Real GDP growth slowed down due to problems with access to electricity caused by the destruction of manoeuvrable electricity generation by Russian drones and missiles.
• Exports and imports continued growing due to better logistics through the Ukrainian sea corridor and road. Polish farmers and drivers stopped blocking borders at the end of April.
• In April, both the Tax and Customs Services over-executed the revenue plan. Moreover, the NBU transferred twice the planned profit to the budget.
• The European side approved the Ukraine Plan, which the government adopted to determine indicators for the Ukraine Facility. That approval will allow Ukraine to receive a EUR 1.9 bn loan from the EU in May. At the same time, the EU provided Ukraine with a EUR 1.5 bn loan in April, as the government fulfilled five indicators under the Ukraine Plan.
• The USA has finally approved an aid package for Ukraine, which includes USD 7.8 bn of budget support; however, the conditions and timing of the assistance are still unknown.
• As in March, annual consumer inflation amounted to 3.2% yoy in April.
• At the April monetary policy meeting, the NBU again reduced the key policy rate from 14.5% to 13.5% per annum.
• Over the past four weeks, the hryvnia exchange rate has stabilized in the UAH 39-40 per USD range.

how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.
How can i find a pi vendor/merchant?
Well for those who haven't traded with a pi merchant or who don't already have one. I will leave the telegram id of my personal pi merchant who i trade pi with.

Research Question
How large is within-industry heterogeneity in energy expenditure
and CO2 productivity?
Motivation
Many environmental policies target industries
• US Clean Air Act
• US Clean Water Act
• California Cap and Trade
• Maybe soon: Border Tax Adjustments
Inefficient if significant within-industry heterogeneity!

7. Data Challenges
• The CMF doesn’t have all the energy variables we would want
→ Merge MECS and CMF
• Either lose observations or assign industry means to
establishments
• Years don’t line up
• CMF doesn’t include the smallest establishments
• Materials Trailer has input industry but not establishment

8. Conclusions
Our Paper
• Energy and CO2 productivity are heterogeneous
• Industry-based carbon standards may be inefficient
• Data limitations may cause us to understate heterogeneity
Open Questions
• How large are welfare consequences of carbon tariffs?
• Why is energy productivity more dispersed than other factors?
• What are implications for heterogeneity in marginal abatement
costs?
