En este trabajo se analizó la fiabilidad de un Sistema de Distribución de Potencia de Media Tensión (SDMT) con la aplicación del Dispositivo de Seccionamiento/Protección (SP). La solución más satisfactoria se obtuvo a través de la metaheurística X-PSO con extensión al dominio difuso. La principal contribución fue la simplificación del índice denominado Costo Intrínseco (IC) y el análisis de los criterios de fiabilidad del coste del dispositivo y de la energía no suministrada. El IC permite obtener la valoración económica de cada uno de los criterios a optimizar y se basa en la cláusula 'Ceteris Paribus'. Se describen el problema, el modelo y el método de resolución utilizado. Se realizó un extenso análisis a través de gráficos bidimensionales (mapas) de la valoración económica de los criterios optimizados de sus respectivos Costos Intrínsecos. Finalmente, se analiza el caso real del problema de la optimización de la confiabilidad y los resultados obtenidos.

Paper aims: the combination of the quality indices, a novel model called "Dynamic Growth Allocation Model (DGAM)", Fuzzy Decision Making Theory (FDM), Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Evolutive Particle Swarm Optimization (EPSO) is proposed.Originality: the multi-objective optimization (with uncertainty) of the Argentine energy transition is not sufficiently studied. This combined methodology in this problem was not published and it had good, relatively easy and fast results.Research method: the optimization indices (EROI, CO2, IC and RP), the methodology used (DGAM, FDM, AHP and EPSO) and its results are analyzed.Main findings: (i) the nuclear energy allowed the renewable transition; (ii) the fossil dismantling and the investment in biomass and wind are needed; (iii) the EROI depends on the good load factor, useful life and performance.Implications for theory and practice: It is sought a minimum Renewable Participation (RP) of 20% of Argentina with a sustainable energy matrix.

The practical application of renewable energies to solve current environmental problems is still under discussion today. In this article, he surveyed the biomass and biogas potential available in Entre Ríos and usable in Concepción del Uruguay. In the first, the forestry, agro-industry and in the second the organic residues of the chickens are studied. A novel contribution is presented in relation to the Energy Return On Investment for renewable generation sources in Argentina, which measures its energy profitability, through the life cycle analysis for its calculation, by measuring energy expenses in different stages. This article seeks to reveal the main data that will be used in subsequent optimization work, especially in determining the energy profitability of generators and the optimization of distributed generation in medium voltage.

This work was developed to present a conceptual and preliminary analysis of the concepts and criteria for estimating the Energy Return on Investment (EROI). In this work, methods based on monetary studies, Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) were discussed and a dynamical systems modeling was proposed. In this respect, we made a mathematical development, defining the state and auxiliary variables and the adjustment parameters necessary to study the problem. Some criteria and influencing factors were defined, in the medium and long term, the sustainability of the energy system and seek to incorporate them into relevant areas of discussion and education, encouraging their dissemination and reviews. It is sought to discuss the issues and considerations for a standardized methodology that allows comparisons and decision-making, in order to minimize environmental impact.

Paper aims: This paper compares the economic valuation (Intrinsic Cost or IC) of carbon dioxide emissions (carbon price) of the externality taxes (Kyoto Protocol) of the Argentine Production Chain (APC). Originality:The experimental IC index and this novel combination allow incorporating objective (incremental) and subjective (acceptance, hierarchy and uncertainty) evaluation of the APC. This method is extended in this paper (to other operators). Research method:The ICs are applied to attribute graphs in two scenarios (APC and society), that are obtained from the combination of Fuzzy Decision Making (FMD), Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and PSO with the Algebraic (AP), Generic Hamacher (GHP and PHP) and Einstein (EP) products. Main findings: (i)The coherency of the new ICs is demonstrated by mathematical and graphical analysis; (ii) The most demanding operators are the EP and HP. Implications for theory and practice:It contributes to establish mechanisms for regulation of the APC. KeywordsCarbon price (externality taxes) of Argentine Productive Chain (APC).
