Implementing Agreement for Co-operation in the Research, Development and Deployment of Wind Energy Systems presentation by - Maureen Hand, nrel at IEA Task 26 Cost and Value of Wind seminar
This document summarizes updated capital cost estimates for various electricity generation technologies that were commissioned by the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Key findings include that overnight capital costs for coal and nuclear plants are 25-37% higher than prior estimates, while natural gas costs remained similar. Solar photovoltaic costs declined 25% due to larger plant sizes and lower component costs. Onshore wind costs increased 21%, while offshore wind costs increased 50% to reflect first-of-a-kind U.S. project costs. Geothermal and biomass costs also increased versus prior estimates. These updated cost estimates will be used in EIA's modeling and analysis of technology choices in the electric power sector.
The document provides an overview of solar power development opportunities in Vietnam. It discusses Vietnam's growing energy demand and renewable energy targets. Solar potential is high due to ample sunlight. The regulatory framework supports solar development through net metering and feed-in tariffs. The document analyzes solar technology, project development phases, costs, and the roles of stakeholders to develop solar projects in Vietnam.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.
Every business, big or small, deals with outgoing payments. Whether it’s to suppliers for inventory, to employees for salaries, or to vendors for services rendered, keeping track of these expenses is crucial. This is where payment vouchers come in – the unsung heroes of the accounting world.

Optimizing Net Interest Margin (NIM) in the Financial Sector (With Examples).pdfshruti1menon2
NIM is calculated as the difference between interest income earned and interest expenses paid, divided by interest-earning assets.
Importance: NIM serves as a critical measure of a financial institution's profitability and operational efficiency. It reflects how effectively the institution is utilizing its interest-earning assets to generate income while managing interest costs.

18. Project Specific model to perform financial analyses for the project
Combines characteristics of the chosen power plant technology(s) with
site- and country-specific parameters with chosen options for project
financing
Such models usually calculate project financial parameters like:
Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE)
Net Present Value (NPV)
Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR)
Etc.
In addition pro-forma income statements and cash flow statements can be
calculated for the lifetime of the asset

21. General Considerations for Nuclear Construction Projects
High Technology driven (compared with other generation technologies)
Substantially longer periods of project implementation / construction
Mandatory specific safety measures to be employed (licensing risk)
Limited number of technology suppliers and vendors
Higher funding risk due to 100 years economic cycle
Strict compliance with environmental requirements and NGO constraints
Typically 15 – 20% of Electricity Generation Cost
(Perceived ?) Track-record of cost- and schedule overruns
Nuclear Projects require strong government commitment
Nuclear Projects require strong government support through the entire
lifecycle
Project Ownership & Financing
22. Sovereign (state) Based Structure
100% state control of the project
Funded through the state budget
Government is responsible for the entire project
Highest long-term state benefit
Simplest contractual arrangement structure
Highest risk exposure for the state
Less compatible with efforts for free market models and liberalization
Corporate Based Structure
Corporation through balance sheet, equity, assets to fund investment
Corporate responsibility and risks
100% state-owned or 100% private owned, or any combination
State control corresponding to its share in the corporation
State benefit corresponding to its share in the corporation
Project Ownership & Financing
23. Project Based Structure
Project funding (equity and debt, secured by future incomes)
Project responsibility and risks
100% state-owned or 100% private owned, or any combination
