  1. 1. Solar photovoltaic potential to complement hydropower in Ecuador : a GIS-based framework of analysis

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Nyckelord :photovoltaic; hydropower; complementarity; GIS; Ecuador; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : In Ecuador, more than 85% of electricity production relies on hydropower and consequently the supply of electricity relies on water availability. During the dry season (October-March) hydropower capacity could diminish up to one-third of its installed capacity or more under a severe drought causing a substantial augmentation of thermoelectric power output to offset the lack of hydropower to cover electricity demand, and consequently increasing the overall operational cost and emission of CO2 of the power system.

  2. 2. ProBenefit : Implementing the Convention on Biological Diversity in the Ecuadorian Amazon

    Kandidat-uppsats, Institutionen för livsvetenskaper

    Nyckelord :Implementation of the CBD; Deliberative democracy; Power distribution; Indigenous participation; Genetic resources; Ecuadorian Amazon region; ProBenefit;

    Sammanfattning : Legislation on benefit sharing dates back to 1992 and the commandment of the UNConvention on Biological Diversity, hence implementation still has few cases to fall back on(CBD, 1992). The case study of the project ProBenefit presented by the thesis highlights howlack of deliberation can undermine a democratic process. LÄS MER
