The Commoner Issue 13 Winter 2008-2009
In the beginning there is the doing, the social flow of human interaction and creativity, and the doing is imprisoned by the deed, and the deed wants to dominate the doing and life, and the doing is turned into work, and people into things. Thus the world is crazy, and revolts are also practices of hope. This journal is about living in a world in which the doing is separated from the deed, in which this separation is extended in an increasing numbers of spheres of life, in which the revolt about this separation is ubiquitous. It is not easy to keep deed and doing separated. Struggles are everywhere, because everywhere is the realm of the commoner, and the commoners have just a simple idea in mind: end the enclosures, end the separation between the deeds and the doers, the means of existence must be free for all!

Powering Renewable Energy in Canada and Abroad
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by bepress Legal Repository WINDWIND ENERGY AND ITS IMPACTIMPACT ONON FUTURE ENVIRONMENTALENVIRONMENTAL POLICY PLANNINGPLANNING:::: POWERINGPOWERING RENEWABLERENEWABLE ENERGY IN CANADA AND ABROAD byby KamaalKamaal R. Zaidi INTRODUCTION Given the tremendous pressure of using finite conventional sources of energy, many countries around the world are turning to renewable sources of energy to cushion against rising costs, while diversifying the means of delivering energy to their citizens. Wind energy is one such example of an innovative strategy to provide energy to citizens in a cleaner, abundant and reliable fashion. As society turns away from conventional sources like coal and natural gas (fossil fuels) due to the rising electricity costs and its deleterious impact on the environment, government-sponsored efforts and technological innovation are pushing wind energy to the forefront of creative environmental policy planning. More specifically, government legislation through financial incentives encourages public and private businesses to participate in pursuing renewable energy sources with more vigor. This paper examines the role of wind energy in Canada and abroad in terms of how its growing emergence is being recognized as one of the best methods of implementing sound environmental regimes that are replacing expensive conventional methods of energy extraction and utilization. Part I will examine the history and background of wind energy. Here, an overview of wind energy use in various cultures and time periods will be examined. Part II explains the role of wind energy in the context of the Kyoto Protocol. As part of this global initiative, wind energy is reviewed as to how it contributes to a “green” economy. -

A Stakeholder Analysis of Investments for Wind Power Electricity Generation in Ontario
Queen's Economics Department Working Paper No. 1442 A stakeholder analysis of investments for wind power electricity generation in Ontario Pejman Bahramian Department of Economics, Queen's University Glenn Jenkins Frank Milne Queen's University Department of Economics Queen's University 94 University Avenue Kingston, Ontario, Canada K7L 3N6 10-2020 A stakeholder analysis of investments for wind power electricity generation in Ontario ∗ Pejman Bahramian Glenn P. Jenkins Frank Milne † October 2020 ‡ § Abstract This study uses an ex-post evaluation of the grid-connected wind projects in Ontario, Canada, to quantify the stakeholder impacts of such renewable energy projects. Our study includes a financial, economic and stakeholder analysis of these wind farms. The analysis sheds light on the distributional impacts that arise when there is a significant gap between the incentives created by the financial price paid for electricity generation and the economic value of the electricity generated. The analysis shows that the nego- tiated power purchase agreements (PPAs) have resulted in a negative outcome for the economy in all circumstances. It is found that the present value of the economic costs is at least three times the present value of the economic benefits, including the global benefits from the reduced CO2 emissions. This loss is borne by all the stakeholders of the electricity system, except the private owners of the wind farms. The losers are pri- marily the electricity consumers followed by the governments. The Ontario Electricity Rebate (OER) programme, which is financed by increased government borrowing, has the effect of transferring a large share of the costs incurred to promote investments in wind power to future generations of taxpayers in Ontario. -
Wind Energy Forecasts in Calculation of Expected Energy Not Served
WIND ENERGY FORECASTS IN CALCULATION OF EXPECTED ENERGY NOT SERVED By Richard Sun Bachelor of Applied Science and Engineering, University of Toronto 2011 A thesis presented to Ryerson University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree Master of Applied Science in the program Electrical and Computer Engineering Toronto, Ontario, Canada, 2014 ©Richard Sun 2014 AUTHOR'S DECLARATION FOR ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION OF A THESIS I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis.

I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Wind Energy Forecasts In Calculation of Expected Energy Not Served Master of Applied Science 2014 Richard Sun Electrical and Computer Engineering Ryerson University ABSTRACT The stochastic nature of wind energy generation introduces uncertainties and risk in generation schedules computed using optimal power flow (OPF). This risk is quantified as expected energy not served (EENS) and computed via an error distribution found for each hourly forecast. This thesis produces an accurate method of estimating EENS that is also suitable for real-time OPF calculation. This thesis examines two statistical predictive models used to forecast hourly production of wind energy generators (WEGs), Markov chain model, and auto-regressive moving-average (ARMA) model, and their effects on EENS. -
