VIETNAM TO IMPLEMENT DIRECT POWER PURCHASE MECHANISM AFTER 2021Dr. Oliver Massmann
Vietnam will implement a direct power purchase mechanism after 2021 to allow renewable energy generators to directly sell electricity to commercial and industrial consumers through long-term bilateral contracts. This mechanism aims to help corporations manage energy costs and support renewable energy development. The pilot program will select up to 1 GW of existing wind and solar projects 30 MW or larger that have power purchase agreements with commercial consumers. The Ministry of Industry and Trade is reviewing feedback on the draft decree and aims to approve the program by the end of 2021.

The proposal estimates creating over 2.4 million jobs and $439 billion in economic activity through this infrastructure investment plan.
Lawyer in Vietnam Dr. Oliver Massmann - Vietnam - Wind Investment GuideDr. Oliver Massmann
Vietnam has significant wind energy potential and the government has set a target of 19 GW of installed wind capacity by 2030. This investment guide explores opportunities and challenges in Vietnam's wind energy market from commercial, legal, and regulatory perspectives. Key challenges include terms of the standard power purchase agreement that allocates risks unfavorably to investors, lack of grid infrastructure, and complex regulatory approval processes. However, Vietnam also offers incentives like tax exemptions and land lease fee waivers to attract investment in wind energy development.
Summary of Intelligent Energy Europe (IEE) project-SMILEGOV
The IEE funded project Smarter Multi Level Governance (SMILEGOV) is examining the major barriers to creating a low carbon society on islands. It is bringing together the various stakeholders and the multilevels of governance required to achieve the EU target of 20% reduction in Carbon and 20% increase in renewable energies by the year 2020, ie less than 6 years from now. The crux of the project is to engage all stakeholders including islanders to agree to the Pact of Islands. The pact asks for commitment to examine and agree an island energy action plan within 12 months of signing the document.
Using the Pan European Island programme SMILEGOV, we are working with other islands as per the Pact of Islands. To date, Arainn Mhor is creating a story board, a platform to collaborate, creating a model that others can emulate by working together.

The document discusses solar financing programs and federal incentives in Ohio. It describes Ohio House Bill 1, which allows property assessed clean energy (PACE) financing for solar improvements. This includes the creation of special improvement districts (SIDs) to finance upfront costs through special assessments. The document outlines the SID process and various financing options like bonds, federal tax credits, and Department of Energy loan guarantees. It also discusses Senate Bill 223, which expands SID authority to other energy projects.
This document is a judgment from the Court of Appeal regarding the Secretary of State's proposal to reduce solar PV feed-in tariffs for installations eligible from December 12, 2011 onwards. The Secretary of State proposed reducing the tariff rate for these installations starting April 1, 2012. The respondents challenged this on the grounds that it undermines the purpose of the FIT scheme and exceeds the Secretary's powers. The court considered whether the proposal has a retrospective effect by removing a "vested right" to the original tariff rate. The key issue is how to interpret the Secretary's powers under the Energy Act 2008 to modify tariff rates over time.

The document proposes establishing the "Friends of the Dryline" public-private partnership to support New York City's efforts to implement coastal resiliency projects along the East River from E 23rd St to Battery Place, known as the "Dryline Area". This would involve securing $1 billion in private financing to supplement the $335 million HUD grant for the East Side Coastal Resiliency Project. Private funds could be raised from pension funds and through a progressive surcharge on property and casualty insurance policies in the Dryline Area. Establishing the partnership now would allow for integrated planning and design of the full resiliency network to save costs compared to implementing projects individually over time.

The passage discusses external factors that influenced infrastructure development in South Korea. In the 1970s-1980s, the Korean government focused on regional development rather than infrastructure, which led to traffic bottlenecks. In the early 1990s, the government acknowledged limits to public funding for needed infrastructure projects. To mobilize new sources, South Korea introduced a PPP program and modified related laws and policies over time to promote PPP highway projects. As of 2015, 24 PPP highway projects have been planned, are under construction or operating in South Korea.
This document discusses NYCHA's plan to preserve public housing in New York City through generating additional revenue. It summarizes that NYCHA will lease small portions of land to private developers, who will build new mixed-income buildings on that land. 80% of the new units will be market rate and 20% will be permanently affordable for low-income residents. The revenue generated from these land leases over 99 years will go towards improving capital infrastructure across NYCHA's buildings. The plan aims to address NYCHA's $13.4 billion capital needs backlog while preserving public housing for current and future residents.

The document discusses Australia's experience with public-private partnerships (PPPs) in infrastructure. It finds that PPPs have led to more cost-efficient projects compared to traditionally procured projects, with cost overruns 30-11% lower. PPPs also saw fewer time overruns, completing projects an average of 3.4% ahead of schedule compared to 23.5% behind for traditional projects. Case studies of specific PPP transport projects show they were delivered on time and on budget, providing benefits to the community, while highlighting lessons learned around realistic forecasting and ensuring public interest is protected.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

unsubsidized apartments and 20% permanently
affordable apartments generating approximately
800 permanently low income housing units for low
income New Yorkers with NYCHA resident

The following are some priorities that we have been focusing on:
Developing an emergency communications plan to deliver timely and consistent information
to NYCHA residents, staff and key stakeholders
Expanding the role of the CCC to provide a wider range of information to our customers
Coordinating and sharing with key city agencies, community based organizations and
informing them of our preparedness plans
Establishing a clear policy and process on how to handle donations and volunteers
Establishing an emergency training program across all departments
Identifying community centers that will be used during an emergency as emergency
operations centers

Melba Butler In accordance with Section 5A of the United States Housing Act of 1937, as amended, Housing Authority’s are required to develop, with review and input from residents and the general public, an Annual Plan that outlines its priorities for the upcoming year. As mandated, NYCHA has developed a Draft Agency Plan for FY 2014. In order to facilitate comments, the Authority will hold 5 Round Table Meetings during the month of June. Every resident should have received a letter from the Chairman with the Annual Plan notice in their recent rent bill. Flyers for the Roundtables were placed under every residents’ door. They were also posted in every building, senior and community center and management offices. The flyers were also translated into Spanish, Chinese and Russian. The Customer Contact Center has also made calls to every household with information about the roundtables and public hearing.
Melba Butler: The Draft Plan was made available on May 17, 2013 for public inspection at NYCHA’s principal office at 250 Broadway, on NYCHA’s website, at each local Public Housing development management office, at all Community Operations/Management & Leased Housing Borough Offices, and at 9 designated Community Centers. The Draft Plan was also sent to all Resident Advisory Board (RAB) delegates and alternates, to each TA President and Section 8 RAB Representatives. In addition, NYCHA encourages residents, advocates and the public to provide written comments on the Draft Plan for FY 2014. The comments will be accepted via fax, through the mail and collected at each of the Round Table Meetings.
Melba Butler: In an attempt to accurately reflect NYCHA’s most critical priorities and needs, the Draft Plan is an evolving document. The purpose of this Round Table meeting today is to provide a venue where residents and the public are invited comment on the Draft Plan. NYCHA staff will make brief presentations on the topics listed on the screen . There will then be an open mike for questions and comments. Please complete a speakers slip if you would like to make a comment on the Plan or have any questions. [HOLD UP A SAMPLE OF THE SPEAKER SLIP]

Melba Butler: NYCHA Authority’s staff and leadership have taken many steps in the wake of Hurricane Sandy to continue to enhance our preparation for hurricanes and coastal storms.
Presenter -Melba Butler
Melba Butler: – We hope that as many people as possible will have an opportunity to express their comments. So before we begin, let’s go over the following ground rules: If you wish to speak, first you must fill out a “Speakers Slip”. [Hold up a sample Speaker Slip] They are available in the entrance area at the table marked “Speaker Sign in” Please line up at each of the microphones in the center aisles and wait your turn to speak. Each speaker is allowed 3 minutes to speak. On the stage, you will see a timer with three lights. When you begin to speak, the green light will be on and the timer will begin to count down. When the yellow light is lit, it means that you should start to conclude your remarks. When the red light is turned on, your three minutes to provide comment are over. A table has been set up outside so that written comments may also be submitted. 3. Numbered speaker slips are non transferable and if you are not present or do not wish to speak when your name and number is called, you will forfeit the opportunity to speak 4. The hearing is being recorded and transcribed by a stenographer so please speak only from the microphones in the aisles and identify yourself and your development or affiliation. 5. Remember we are here to comment on NYCHA’s FY 2014 Draft Annual Plan. Any personal comments on, criticisms of or oral attacks on NYCHA personnel, resident representatives, and public attendees or any demeaning, discriminatory or ethnic slurs, or vulgar language will not be tolerated. I, as the moderator of this evening’s meeting, reserve the right to immediately move on to the next speaker on line if any comments are deemed inappropriate. The Moderator on the stage is in charge of the Public Hearing, please be considerate of your neighbors and obey the moderator’s directions. 5. We are here to consider issues that are of concern to everyone; not issues that concern only a single resident or individual. If you have an issue that concerns only you or your apartment, we have tables set up outside specifically for that purpose. You may fill out a resident response form at the table outside marked “Residents Complaints”.
Melba Butler: This concludes the Roundtable meeting for tonight.
