Renewable Energy Investments and Fiscal Reforms will Ensure Sustainable Economic Growth and Avoid Greek-like Financial Meltdown
Renewable Energy Investments and Fiscal Reforms will Ensure Sustainable Economic Growth and Avoid Greek-like Financial Meltdown
I would like to share my views with the purpose of suggesting what would be the sustainable economic and energy development path for our country, the Philippines.
With the passage of the Renewable Energy (RE) Law, the government thru the DOE, NREB, ERC, NGCP/TRANSCO, PEMC/WESM, NPC/NPC-SPUG, DUs, ECs, power generators (IPPs, IPPAs), NGOs, etc, and with the assistance of donor countries and financial institutions such as the WB, ADB, UNDP, USAID, AUSAID, etc, have developed the IRR and other pertinent regulations for the implementation of the RE Law, including the provision of feed-in-tariff (FIT) that will be paid to RE developers and generators so that it may provide non-fossil power generation to meet future demand of power as well as replace/augment supplies due to retirement of conventional and fossil power generation sources.
On several occasions, it has been articulated by both local and foreign experts that RE power generation is the sustainable way to go to meet the country’s energy and power needs in the future because: More »

Buy my project finance models, visit my country, and learn one-on-one to use my models
That’s right. Order and buy now my project finance models this November till December and take advantage of my holiday deals.
Once you have paid via PayPal or wire / bank transfer to my local bank account, I will then email to you the project finance model.
Then take the first flight to Manila and I will meet you at the Airport (NAIA Terminals 1, 2 or 3).
Alternatively, send me my airline ticket and hotel booking charge to your account, and I will fly to your work place and conduct the seminar/workshop to you and your other interested staff.
I will then take you to your hotel and conduct the one-on-one seminar/workshop where you will learn project finance and power plant and financial modeling for conventional (hydro, geothermal, coal thermal, oil thermal, gas thermal, combined cycle gas turbines), renewable (biomass, solar, wind, mini-hydro, ocean thermal energy conversion), nuclear and energy storage power generation technologies.

How the US could regain its lost economic power – getting out quickly from the market crash due to credit downgrade
How the US could regain its lost economic power – getting out quickly from the market crash due to credit downgrade
The only way for America to regain its lost economic power are as follows:
1) Devalue the US dollar to make your exports competitive and imports expensive since under World Trade Organization (WTO) it is not allowed to impose quantitative restrictions.
2) US workers accept a 50% cut in salaries, wages and benefits since devaluating the currency is not enough to make US production of goods and services competitive. You need the combined effect of devaluation and salary cuts.
3) US to print only US dollar notes to purchase domestic US gold production and to convert foreign exchange earnings from its exports – the US dollar must be backed by gold and forex earnings so that it will not fuel inflation. More »
How to run my state-of-the-art personal financial planner (also business model planner)
How to run my state-of-the-art personal financial planner (also business model planner)
Yes again, your energy technology and financial planning expert has done it again.
I am launching my top-of-the-line financial planner. It is used in creating your beginning balance sheet, then as you operate your company, forecast the income streams as well as expense streams to arrive at the ending balance sheet.
If there is a need to re-structure short-term and credit-card debt of high interest with longer-term debt of lower interest rate and longer repayment period, this financial model will help you decide the level of borrowing, or given your proposed longer-term borrowing, the model will provide the ending cash position (which is a balancing number and could be solved easily using the excel function “goal seek” which adjusts the cash position so that the variance between assets vs liabilities and equity is zero).

Linear Programming (LP) Model for Cogeneration and Trigeneration – raising energy utilization efficiency
Linear Programming (LP) Model for Cogeneration and Trigeneration - raising energy utilization efficiency
With the world running out of cheap fossil fuels (crude oil, coal, natural gas), and with continued rise of their prices in the international market, the world is exhausting all possible means of minimizing the impact of diminished supply and expensive cost of fossil fuels.
Among the response of the world’s leading economies as well as emerging economies is to raise energy utilization efficiency in power generation using cogeneration and trigeneration. When the simultaneous provision of electricity and process heat as well as cooling or refrigeration is desirable, the use of cogeneration and trigeneration will raise efficiency from the usual 33% of rankine thermal power systems (oil, gas, coal, biomass thermal) to 56% for cogeneration power systems (oil, gas, biomass) up to 80-90% with trigeneration.
Linear Programming (LP) and setting up LP models to optimize a number of processes and business models is an expertise close to the heart of the energy technology expert. As the LP model custodian of the Petron Bataan Refinery, he was involved in the re-structuring of the refinery’s cost minimization LP model to a profit maximization LP model that ensured that expensive intermediate process streams are blended to the higher valued products which a cost minimization model could not distinguish from.

How to Get Out of Credit Card Debt – Get a 3-5 year bank loan
How to Get Out of Credit Card Debt – Get a 3-5 year bank loan
Yes, your technology expert and business development consultant who is also a personal financial planner and married to a chartered personal financial planner has demonstrated that getting a short term loan of 1.67% per month (20% p.a.) for 3 years is far a better way out of a credit card debt of 3.5% per month interest (42% per year) and 5% minimum payment of amount due. The 5% minimum due is calculated by adding the 3.5% interest due to the outstanding balance. A simulation by the expert has shown that paying the 5% minimum due will only liquidate the date after 20 years (1 / 0.05 = 20 years).
Here is a sample calculation that will prove that consolidating all your credit card debts into a single or split bank loan of lower interest and 3-5 year term is the better choice. More »
