Conclusions.There are few industries in today's world as dynamic and dramatically changing as the space sector, with new ventures and initiatives being announced on a daily basis. As well as emerging countries improving their launching and manufacturing capabilities, private actors are beginning to join public bodies in the space race, and participating in what is frequently being referred to as the new space era. With fantastic opportunities arising for business and economics, this book provides a comprehensive overview of the space sector, exploring recent initiatives, and the most important areas of investment in the industry, including emerging fields of activities such as asteroid mining and space tourism. It also addresses traditional and non-traditional security issues in the sector, together with discussing their legal implications. This interdisciplinary book provides insights for practitioners and researchers alike, particularly those involved in technology and innovation management,emerging markets, international relations, and security studies.Technological innovationsNew business enterprisesVenture capitalInternational economic integrationGlobalizationAerospace engineeringAstronauticsNonprofit organizationsSecurity, InternationalInnovation and Technology ManagementStart-Ups and Venture CapitalEmerging Markets and GlobalizationAerospace Technology and AstronauticsNon-Profit Organizations and Public EnterprisesInternational Security StudiesEnginyeria aeroespaciallemacVol espaciallemacEspai en economialemacAstronàutica i civilitzaciólemacAstronàuticaAspectes econòmicslemacDret espaciallemacTurisme espaciallemacTechnological innovations.New business enterprises.Venture capital.International economic integration.Globalization.Aerospace engineering.Astronautics.Nonprofit organizations.Security, International.Innovation and Technology Management.Start-Ups and Venture Capital.Emerging Markets and Globalization.Aerospace Technology and Astronautics.Non-Profit Organizations and Public Enterprises.International Security Studies.Enginyeria aeroespacial.Vol espacial.Espai en economiaAstronàutica i civilització.AstronàuticaAspectes econòmics.Dret espacialTurisme espacial629.4333.94Paladini Stefaniaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut909869BOOK9910338233603321The New Frontiers of Space2036121UNINA04129nam 2200901z- 450 991055711840332120210501(CKB)5400000000040862(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/68286(oapen)doab68286(EXLCZ)99540000000004086220202105d2021 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierOperation, Regulation and Planning of Power and Natural Gas SystemsBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20211 online resource (162 p.)3-03943-821-2 3-03943-822-0 Worldwide, electricity systems are evolving to adapt to a low-carbon economy in which increasingly more renewable energy resources are being integrated. These changes, in turn, make the development of new methods, tools, and approaches to deal with the operation and planning of electricity systems necessary. On the other hand, new regulations must be developed in order to deal with a wide integration of renewable and distributed energy resources, both from a generation and a network (transmission and distribution) perspective. Furthermore, the natural gas sector is going through significant transformation related mainly to both technological advances and strategic policy decisions. While there is great uncertainty in the future of natural gas within the global energy matrix, it is clear that it will play a major role during the next years as a bridge fuel towards a decarbonized economy. In this context, natural gas systems are undergoing deep transformations, necessitating the development of new tools to operate and plan gas systems as well as new approaches to regulate them. This book, therefore, seeks to contribute to the energy transformation agenda through original contributions focused on both power and natural gas systems, addressing innovative operation and planning methods as well as regulation of both energy systems.History of engineering and technologybicsscbidding formatscopuladay-ahead electricity marketsdistributed solar PVearningselectricity marketelectricity marketselectricity price forecastingenergy tradingentropyequilibrium analysisexpansion planningfeasible operationfinancial analysisfundamental-econometric modelsgame theory-Cournot modelgas marketsindustrial park integrated energy systeminformation theoryinvestor-owned utilitymarket designmarket structural breaksmedium-term representationmin-max regret valuenatural gas price uncertaintynatural-gas marketnet-energy meteringoptimization modelsportfolioportfolio managementpower purchase agreementspower systemsPPApricing rulesratepayer billsrecords theoryregret aversionrenewable energy sourcesretail ratesreturn on equityriskrisk assessmentthermal generationunit commitmentwholesale electricity marketsHistory of engineering and technologyReneses Javieredt1288741Bello AntonioedtReneses JavierothBello AntonioothBOOK9910557118403321Operation, Regulation and Planning of Power and Natural Gas Systems3020967UNINA
