“…As a result, governments have introduced a range of tax incentives, both directly and indirectly (e.g., subsidies) . Since unit costs are high and because they are becoming lower and lower due to technological advancement and increasing production volume (Fournier et al, 2023). However, this research will show that there is a set of criteria and that each of these criteria are composed of a number of subcriteria that make up a whole theme of barriers or limitations in the research and/or implementation of renewable energies (Jesus et al, 2021).…”

Colombia is a country that is characterized by having potential in many renewable and sustainable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydroelectric, biomass, etc., in this country the growth value of renewable energy (ER) has not yet reached a benchmark, this due to the existence of several barriers or limitations that have hindered the path of research and implementation. It is difficult to identify and prioritize the impact of these barriers that mostly hinder growth or improvement in the quality of life of a specific population. For this research, a systematic structure has been developed to identify and prioritize the barriers and manage to find a solution path to the aforementioned. This study aims to recognize and classify the barriers according to their impact on the development of renewable energy technologies, as well as demonstrate the non-relationship that may exist between a territory rich in energy potential and the good quality of life of its inhabitants, the study consists of four phases; (1) A study area was taken for its characterization in renewable energy potential and compared with the current quality of its inhabitants, (2) The barriers were recognized from the available literature studies, project reports and interactions with 6 experts from academia and industries, (3) for the final selection, the FAHP decision method was used, then, 24 were selected and classified into five groups: social and economic barriers, political and, administrative and market barriers and geographical and environmental barriers and (4) the FAHP method was used to obtain the priority weight and the hierarchy between these barriers. The results showed first that there is no relationship indicating that a potential area in renewable energy source has a positive impact on people's quality of life, also that politics and political barriers occupies the first place among the main barriers, besides that corruption and nepotism is the most relevant sub-criterion according to the experts’ results. Sensitivity analysis is used to confirm the stability of all prioritized barriers.

Over the years, electricity has developed into a crucial commodity for any nation. The need to evaluate the rate of electricity consumption in regard to utility management and the spatial distribution of major devices to facilitate appropriate planning within the estate is the motivation for this research. This study used geospatial technology to evaluate the electricity distribution to support planning and management in Omole Estate (Phase One) and environs within the city of Lagos, Nigeria. The focus was on determining the land use in study area, geolocations of the transformers, along with the cost of energy consumed per household. Spatial data for the research area was collected through a Hand-held GPS. Google Earth images were downloaded to supplement the data, and a comprehensive analysis of administered and recovered questionnaires was conducted to enrich the dataset. ArcGIS 10.6.1 software was employed to create the database and depict the area, whilst modifying all of the details required within. The result confirms that 72% of the respondents use electricity for domestic use, 18% for commercial use while 10% utilise it for domestic and commercial use. A significant portion of homes (33%) still use outdated postpaid meters and 35% of respondents do not know how much power they use at home each month or the cost per unit of that electricity. Regarding the respondents, 67% have a prepaid card/electrical meter installed (per kilowatt). Concerning cost, 10% of the respondents spends between N1000-N5000 for their monthly electricity consumption, 27% of the respondents between N5,000 and N10,000, 38% between N10,000 and N17,000, 24% between N17,000 and N25,000 and 2% above N25,000 per month on electricity. These findings will assist effective power distribution within the estate and provide guidance on charge rates for commercial power users which is approximately 28% overall.

“…Building maintenance methods can be done by way of WBS (Al-Kasasbeh et al, 2021a;Fournier et al, 2023;Park & Cai, 2017). Creating a WBS is a process of depicting the results of work and projects in the form of individual components in the form of a top-down list and the depiction of work components in a hierarchical manner (Al-Kasasbeh et al, 2021b;Kenley & Harfield, 2014;Y.…”

Building maintenance must also be carried out on campus buildings, because every day they are used by the academic community in their activities in large numbers. For that we need buildings that are safe, comfortable, and decent. Building maintenance in Indonesia is regulated in the Regulation of the Minister of Public Works No.24/PRT/M/2008 concerning Building Maintenance. This arrangement was updated with the passing of Law number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation. Based on this, it is also necessary to know the best building maintenance methods that must be applied based on the right approach. This study aims to plan a maintenance method for the L5 building on the UNJ Campus based on the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) using Building Information Modeling (BIM). Based on a series of studies on the UNJ Campus L5 building that is integrated with BIM, it will improve the process of maintaining and repairing buildings. The results of this early stage research are expected to provide an overview and recommendations on how to maintain the UNJ Campus building.
