“…-Rural electrification sets up is not well linked to the municipal, districts, regional and government -Lack of knowledge and acknowledgement in social, environmental and cumulative impacts toward the implementation of the projects determination of the electricity tariff is either allowed revenues recovered or define the tariff structure and allocation of allowed costs [75]. The revenues recovered determined by either calculating the cost of service regulation or incentive-based regulation as described in [76].…”

The hydropower resources have become an attractive means of generating electricity to the off-grid network, especially in rural areas. This article assesses the small, mini and large hydropower resources and identified to reach 5.3 GW for electricity generation in Tanzania. The technology development discussed comprises of hydro turbine manufacturers, classification and turbine selection. The barriers presented include the presence of sediment in the hydropower reservoirs, financial viability, policy and regulatory issues related to hydropower development. This reviewed article serves the investors and policymakers to understand the status of hydropower resources in Tanzania.

“…The feed-in tariff (FIT) guarantees a fixed compensation rate per unit of electricity produced from renewable energies, for a defined time period, and covers the difference between the production cost and the market price [21]. Producers have the guarantee that at least their production costs are covered and that they are not exposed to fluctuations of the electricity price, thus increasing the security of new projects.…”

“…Since power supply companies are obliged to first buy the electricity produced from renewable energies (priority dispatch), the producers neither bear the costs for the marketing of their electricity nor the associated financial risks. Since the remuneration is higher than the market price and the power purchase is guaranteed regardless of the market demand, this instrument is not very close to the market [14,21,24]. The bearer of the costs is either the tax payer or the electricity consumer through a supplement on the electricity price.…”

A B S T R A C THydropower is the central pillar of the current Swiss electricity mix. The Swiss energy transition will profoundly change the electricity mix by transitioning a third of electricity generation from nuclear towards renewable energy sources mainly. This backbone role of hydropower is hindered by the current Europe-wide sluggish economic situation, characterized by subsidized new renewables energies which distort electricity prices, a partially liberalized market and power production overcapacity. In this difficult context, a strong and comprehensive political support through long-term policy will be of utmost importance to accompany hydropower across this transformation. This article explores various subsidy instruments, before using the general framework of "System Engineering" to base a precise recommendation for Swiss hydropower. The recommended mixture of investment contribution with discount reclamation appears the most appropriate instrument. Also, the short time horizon means that the subsidization can be quickly terminated if necessary. In parallel, it is a mature instrument since it is already used for other new renewable energies. The discount model allows reclaiming subsidies in case of an excess profitability. The strength of this study is its robust, comprehensive and allencompassing methodology which can be replicated to other cases (for instance, other technologies or energy sources) and other countries.

“…The contribution that telecommunications cause in several small Pacific Islands was studied by Ravinesh, Devi and Patel (2015) and it presented positive results linking it to the economic growth of the islands (Ravinesh, Devi, & Patel, 2015). The research by Trypolska (2014), for determining the level of international investment in Ukraine demonstrated that even countries under high risk rates may attract investors due to some other factors like high service tariff and amount of users (Trypolska, 2014). South Korea has experienced many benefits and an increased economic growth after the investment in research and development of the information and communication technologies (ICT) (Hong, 2016).…”

This article presents a review of the state of an important financial indicator as well as some national intrinsic factors that drive money investment in the telecommunications sector in Ecuador. The review aims at analyzing and understanding those factors in the context of the upcoming presidential elections (February 19th 2017, and a possible second round of elections in April 2nd 2017). This project intends to give a general idea of whether the telecommunications sector will remain attractive for the investors, or not, depending on the economic and regulatory visions of the person taking office next May 2017. The financial analysis considers the calculation of the weighted average cost of capital over the last seven years and the national factors include political and social status of the nation to this date. Both will give a broad outlook of the profits earned by the telecommunication companies lately and aid interpret likely future changes in the sector. The findings give a high possibility of the telecommunications market to continue in full swing and become more open and inviting to new foreign investments.
