ECONOMIC Potential of Renewable Energy in Vietnam's Power Sector

A bottom-up Integrated Resource Planning model is used to examine the economic potential of renewable energy in Vietnam’s power sector. In a baseline scenario without renewables, coal provides 44% of electricity generated from 2010 to 2030. The use of renewables could reduce that figure to 39%, as well as decrease the sector’s cumulative emission of CO2 by 8%, SO2 by 3%, and NOx by 4%. In addition,renewables could avoid installing 4.4GW in fossil fuel generating capacity, conserve domestic coal,decrease coal and gases imports, improving energy independence and security. Wind could become cost-competitive assuming high but plausible on fossil fuel prices, if the cost of the technology falls to 900 US$/kW

ACTIVITIES SUPPORTING SEX EDUCATION TO ADOLESCENCE IN HANOI NOWADAYS

Activities supporting sex education in schools are basic ones with the purpose of organizing models to contribute to the completion of sex education for students, meeting the requirements of students’ life and society diversity. These activities include: classroom activities, extra-curricular activities, awareness raising activities for students and educational forces, and counseling activities. The article assesses the current situation of sex education in schools nowadays, thereby proposing some feasible solutions

The potential for mitigation of CO2 emissions in Vietnam's power sector

This manuscript examines CO2 emissions from Vietnam's power sector using an expanded Integrated Resource Planning model. The potential effects of the following alternative policy options are examined: energy efficiency, favorably imported generation fuels, nuclear energy, renewable energy, and an internalized positive carbon value. The baseline in terms of cumulative CO2 emissions over 2010-2030 is 3.6 Gt. Lighting energy efficiency improvements offers 14% of no-regret abatement of CO2 emissions. Developing nuclear and renewable energy could help meet the challenges of the increases in electricity demand, the dependence on imported fuels for electricity generation in the context of carbon constraints applied in a developing country. When CO2 costs increase from 1 $/t to 30$/t, building 10 GW of nuclear generation capacity implies an increase in abatement levels from 24% to 46%. Using renewable energy abates CO2 levels by between 14% and 46%. At 2 $/tCO2, the model predicts an abatement of 0.77 Gt from using wind power at prime locations as well as energy from small hydro, wood residue and wood plantations, suggesting Clean Development Mechanism opportunities. At 10$/tCO2, the model predicts an abatement of 1.4 Gt when efficient gas plants are substituted for coal generation and when the potential for wind energy is economically developed further than in the former model

Electronic Loyalty In Social Commerce: Scale Development and Validation

Loyalty is an important key performance indicator to assess a business's success, especially in an online business environment with fierce competition. The explosion of social networking sites has created a new form of business: social commerce. Simultaneously, the scale of loyalty in online transactions has some limitations; hence, this research aims to develop and validate an electronic loyalty scale in the context of social commerce. The study used a mixed research method with two phases of a sequential exploratory strategy. Qualitative research generated the scale and was used in the initial filtering to develop an e-loyalty scale for social commerce. This study conducted two quantitative studies with 715 social commerce shoppers in five developed areas in Vietnam: Ho Chi Minh City, Ha Noi City, Hai Phong City, Da Nang City, and Binh Duong Province. Based on our research survey and literature review, the research results showed that electronic loyalty in social commerce is expressed in three dimensions: preference, interaction, and personal information’s disclosure. Then, the research proposed several relevant implications for other researchers and administrators of online businesses

VNINDEX INDEX: A VIEW FROM QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS

The financial strategy towards 2030 in Decision no. 368/QD-TTg enacted on 21/3/2022 by the Vietnam Prime Minister had set developmental goals for the stock market to become a channel to promote mid-and-long term capital raising for the economy, to continue changing the structure to be more appropriate for the monetary, the capital, the stock, and the bonds market. In the past two years, the stock market in Vietnam has manifested impressive growth. A prime example is the active growth of private investors. However, many challenges and loopholes still exist in the stock market. The stock market is a special market as the fluctuation of the VN-index index is affected by many factors including the expectations of the investor. When the market shows trends of increases in points then investors expect the next session to grow as well, leading to a rise in sales even for stocks with inflating costs, thus the VNindex will increase and vice versa. The structure of the econometric is utilized to assess the impacts of the VN-index of the previous month on the index of the following month on the Vietnamese stock market in the period from January 2019 to May 2022. The conclusion of the quantitative analysis shows that if the VN-index of the previous month increases by 1% then the VNindex of the following month will increase by 0.965% or vice versa. From the results of the analysis, the research team has proposed a few discussion points intending to stabilize the stock market in the upcoming time and develop the market according to the financial strategy towards 2030 in Decision no. 368/QD-TTg by the Vietnam Prime Ministe

Multi-source in DF cooperative networks with the PSR protocol based full-duplex energy harvesting over a Rayleigh fading channel: performance analysis

Due to the tremendous energy consumption growth with ever-increasing connected devices, alternative wireless information and power transfer techniques are important not only for theoretical research but also for saving operational costs and for a sustainable growth of wireless communications. In this paper, we investigate the multi-source in decode-and-forward cooperative networks with the power splitting protocol based full-duplex energy harvesting relaying network over a Rayleigh fading channel. In this system model, the multi-source and the destination communicate with each other by both the direct link and an intermediate helping relay. First, we investigate source selection for the best system performance. Then, the closed-form expression of the outage probability and the symbol error ratio are derived. Finally, the Monte Carlo simulation is used for validating the analytical expressions in connection with all main possible system parameters. The research results show that the analytical and simulation results matched well with each other.Web of Science68327526

Multisource power splitting energy harvesting relaying network in half-duplex system over block Rayleigh fading channel: System performance analysis

Energy harvesting and information transferring simultaneously by radio frequency (RF) is considered as the novel solution for green-energy wireless communications. From that point of view, the system performance (SP) analysis of multisource power splitting (PS) energy harvesting (EH) relaying network (RN) over block Rayleigh-fading channels is presented and investigated. We investigate the system in both delay-tolerant transmission (DTT), and delay-limited transmission (DLT) modes and devices work in the half-duplex (HD) system. In this model system, the closed-form (CF) expressions for the outage probability (OP), system throughput (ST) in DLT mode and for ergodic capacity (EC) for DTT mode are analyzed and derived, respectively. Furthermore, CF expression for the symbol errors ratio (SER) is demonstrated. Then, the optimal PS factor is investigated. Finally, a Monte Carlo simulation is used for validating the analytical expressions concerning with all system parameters (SP).Web of Science81art. no. 6
