ENERGY PLANNING UNDER IMPORT RESTRICTIONS

1994-02-10
GUVEN, C
Changing energy prices will normally have important long range implications for an oil-importing country with a persisting trade deficit. The availability of relatively expensive local energy can complicate the issue further since developing such resources may save foreign exchange but may be inefficient in the long run. This paper describes two nonlinear programming models for energy policy analysis in which foreign trade is considered within a one-sector representation of the economy. A putty-clay technology is assumed as it is more representative of non-mature market economies which have to deal with such problems. The models are capable of addresing energy issues in general as demonstrated by results for Turkey.

Robust portfolio planning in the presence of market anomalies
Oguzsoy, Cemal Berk; Güven, Sibel (Elsevier BV, 2007-02-01)
In this study, a short-term portfolio modeling formulation is developed using existing anomalies as a single determinant for daily Istanbul Stock Exchange National 100 Composite Index (ISE) and US dollars (USD) returns in a Robust optimization (RO) framework. Using anomalies in planning within an RO framework establishes a balance between risk seeking and risk averse behaviors, as generating profit from anomalies is risky and RO enables to settle down the extreme risk seeking behavior. Applications of the m...
Energy mutual funds and oil prices
Gormus, Alper; Diltz, John David; Soytaş, Uğur (Emerald, 2018-01-01)
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the price level and volatility impacts of oil prices on energy mutual funds (EMFs). The authors also examine specific fund characteristics which might influence those interactions.
A deterministic inventory/production model with general inventory cost rate function and piecewise linear concave production costs
Bayındır, Zeynep Pelin; Frenk, J. B. G. (Elsevier BV, 2007-05-16)
We present a thorough analysis of the economic production quantity model with shortages under a general inventory cost rate function and piecewise linear concave production costs. Consequently, an effective solution procedure, particularly useful for an approximation scheme, is proposed. A computational study is appended to illustrate the performance of the proposed solution procedure.
Solar energy potentials in strategically located cities in Nigeria: Review, resource assessment and PV system design
Okoye, Chiemeka Onyeka; Taylan, Onur; Baker, Derek Keıth (2016-03-01)
Ensuring energy security increasingly requires expanding both yield and resilience of supply through source diversification. In this study, the current energy situation of Nigeria is presented through a detailed literature review. The survey reveals that access to the national grid is limited, and the power delivered to areas classified as urban with grid connection is very unreliable. An initial assessment of the potential utilization of solar based technologies for electricity generation is presented for ...
Feasibility analysis of solar photovoltaic-wind hybrid energy system for household applications
Al-Turjman, Fadi; Qadir, Zakria; Abujubbeh, Mohammad; Batunlu, Canras (Elsevier BV, 2020-09-01)
The significance of renewable energy resources provide a great opportunity to meet a single household electricity demand in Northern Cyprus. Purposefully, a 6 kW PV-Wind hybrid system seems to offer significant economic savings relative to the conventional grid system. Therefore, the main intention is to shed light on the technical as well as economic feasibility of combining renewable sources. The solar irradiance and wind speed data are analyzed for four populous cities of TRNC using RET-Screen software. ...
