Abstract:
Transmission and transformation project is the foundation of power grid construction, the development of large-scale transmission projects can not only realize the optimal allocation of resources, but also improve the overall efficiency of power transmission. This paper takes the investment benefit of major power transmission and transformation project as the research object, and explores its complete evaluation system in depth. According to the characteristics of various types of projects, an evaluation indicator system has been built to meet all kinds of major power transmission and transformation projects. Considering the differences in the focus of evaluation indicators of different projects, the paper puts forward an indicator evaluation idea based on BWM method (Best-Worst Method) and TOPSIS method (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution Method), so as to establish an investment benefit evaluation model applicable to various power transmission and transformation projects. Finally, the paper verifies the above investment benefit evaluation model through the actual engineering project, and the evaluation process and results show the practicality and superiority of the model.

Abstract:
Deciding whether an investment should be made or not requires an evaluation of the investment’s effectiveness. The choice of evaluation methods is related to the basic objective conditioning the implementation of the investment project. It often happens that the conditions in which a specific investment has been formulated change and so does the basis for its implementation, and it is necessary to adapt it to the new conditions. These new conditions could be recognized during the exploitation of the project so it is hard to take them into consideration at the stage of planning. The paper aims to evaluate the investments in commercial real estate with the option of alternative way of usage. This evaluation was carried out using the classical (discounted) methods of economic efficiency of investments and real options. Two groups of pricing real options models were used in the study: binomial models and continuous-time models. Results based on varied valuation methods lead to different conclusions. Unlike the discount methods, the real option approach allows valuing the project flexibility (which cannot be valued by classical methods). This value of flexibility in certain conditions indicates what should be the path of development of the project related with the transformation of commercial real estate for other purposes.

Abstract In order to quantify the input-output evaluation index of high-energy consumption main transformer transformation projects of power grid enterprises, to provide a real, effective, and quantitative basis for investment decisions, the project input and output indexes are measured from the whole life cycle perspective. The whole life cycle cost, including the initial investment and annual operational maintenance cost, is selected as the input evaluation index, and the four dimensions of safety, economics, efficiency, and greenness are considered. The output evaluation index is proposed, combined with the investment effectiveness of typical projects of production technology reform, the potential output analysis indexes under each dimension are sorted out, the full set of output evaluation indexes of production technology reform projects is constructed, the corresponding characteristic indexes of high energy consumption main transformation projects are selected from the full set of indexes, and mathematical evaluation model of input-output analysis of high energy consumption main transformation projects is built. Verify the model through practical engineering examples.

Abstract:
Power transmission and transformation projects, as Infrastructure construction projects, the scientific nature of their investments and the significance of investment benefits have been paid more and more attention to. At present, there are relatively few researches on social benefits evaluation index system of power transmission and transformation projects, and there is a lack of practical application of evaluating methods. With the goal of scientifically evaluating the social benefits of power transmission and transformation project, this paper extracts the social benefit evaluation indicators in the relevant domestic and foreign literature research, innovatively adopts the Entropy Method, and quantifies the relative importance of the indicators. After that, screens the original indicators and constructs the framework of conventional indexes and special indexes, then comprehensively forms a targeted evaluation index system. On this basis, uses Analytic Hierarchy Process to do the weight calculating and testing, and uses Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation Method to comprehensively analyze and evaluate the social benefits of power transmission and transformation projects. Then taking four large-scale power transmission and transformation projects in Henan as examples to comprehensively evaluate their social benefits, verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the method, and clarify the positive social benefits of power transmission and transformation projects.

Abstract:
Abstract With the continuous promotion of carbon peak carbon neutrality, the investment and construction of new power systems have accelerated, and the construction of a low-carbon economy has become an inevitable trend of the transformation and development of power transmission and transformation projects. In this paper, the FAHP and entropy methods are used to evaluate the economic, social, and social benefits of carbon reduction in power transmission and transformation projects and finally establish a set of comprehensive benefit evaluation systems for carbon reduction in power transmission and transformation projects. Under this evaluation system, the comprehensive benefit of 220 kV power transmission and transformation project in A province is sorted by entropy weight-TOPSIS method. The comprehensive benefit of power transmission and transformation project B >C >A project is finally obtained. At the same time, in the sub-criteria of economic benefits, the index of “enterprise asset-liability ratio” has the largest comprehensive weight. The “using distributed energy generation” index has the largest comprehensive weight in the sub-criteria layer of carbon reduction benefit. In the subsequent construction of power transmission and transformation projects, enterprises can prioritize improving the above indicators to improve carbon reduction efficiency and economy.

Abstract:
Power transmission and transformation projects (PTTPs) under new energy grid connections are different from ordinary engineering construction projects. With large investment amounts, various supporting facilities, and high safety and quality requirements, PTTPs are vulnerable to the volatility of new energy power generation, climate, geological conditions, geopolitical environment, technological changes, and other kinds of uncertain factors. Therefore, the investment risk of PTTPs under new energy grid connection is particularly considerable in the project management. For the owner of PTTPs, adopting the engineering-procurement-construction (EPC) mode is an effective attempt to solve the project construction problems faced by the owners. Thus, this paper deeply excavates the key risk points of PTTPs in the initial investment phase under the EPC mode and constructs the novel risk evaluation index system from the perspectives of economy, management, policy, society, and environment. An assessment model is established based on triangle fuzzy number-hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets (HFLTS-TFNs), the entropy method, and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method, which is used to evaluate the investment risk of PTTPs to provide reference for power grid corporations to control project risks. Finally, a case study in the Hexi Corridor region, Gansu Province, China, is illustrated to demonstrate the rationality of the decision model and find management risks are the most vital risk factors for PTTPs under EPC mode.

Abstract:
In recent years, China has actively and steadily expanded the effective investment in rural transportation infrastructure, actively guided social capital to participate in rural development, promoted the combination of PPP model and all aspects of rural areas, and implemented a new round of rural road construction and transformation. Rural highway construction is an important measure to promote rural economic development. Because of the wide range of rural construction in China and the huge capital investment and demand, it is necessary to build a scientific and comprehensive evaluation index system to evaluate the performance of rural highway construction projects, analyze the evaluation results, and put forward feasible suggestions to help decision makers grasp the benefits and effects of construction, and take targeted measures to guide and promote the positive development of rural highways. Taking the northern extension project of XL highway as an example, this paper constructs a performance evaluation index system, which can provide reference for the project management of XL highway and other highway projects.

<strong><em>Abstract</em></strong> <em>The article is devoted to solving the scientific task of developing theoretical and methodological provisions and providing methodological and applied recommendations for improving approaches to economic evaluation and substantiation of projects of construction enterprises based on the postulates of value engineering and process-oriented management. The relevance of scientific research is due to the need to implement a large-scale program of updating the technical and technological base of most domestic enterprises on the basis of replacing outdated types of equipment, technologies and models of construction production management, as well as improving the economic and management methodical approaches of the organization and administration of the enterprise. Especially in the current conditions, when the key task for any company is to reduce costs, both at the construction stage and during the operation of the facility. Value engineering of investment and construction projects is closely related to concepts such as: project risk management, complex project cost management, construction object life cycle management, since the operational (economic) activity of a construction enterprise is the realization of the stages of construction project implementation. From our point of view, a comprehensive evaluation of the transformation of operational activity should be carried out according to a certain algorithm of coordinated actions, which are systematized by blocks: a preparatory block, the main part of the study and a resulting block with elements of forecasting the further development of the enterprise as an open operating system and its level of competitiveness.</em>

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis contains three essays related to fixed investment and crude oil. The first essay examines the implications of building a cross-border oil infrastructure project within the context of the bargaining problem (the Nash bargaining solution, and the alternating offer bargain of Rubinstein). We examine the viability of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline project, which is employed as a case study - for the multinational corporation, and the three host countries (Azerbaijan, Turkey, and Georgia) by examining the profitability of the project for each partner with two different bargaining formulations (simultaneous and sequential bargaining). The findings suggest that the project is feasible for the partners when the transit charge is greater than $3 per barrel (this is the Break-Even charge at which the project produces a zero total surplus); but for a tariff charge higher than this rate, the project generates returns for each participant greater than his outside option. Furthermore, the outcomes show how with bargaining over discounted flows, each bargaining scenario results in a different total surplus. Thus, the participants’ discount rates, their bargaining orders, and their outside options are the determinants of the gross payoffs they receive over the life of the project. The second essay examines the effect of oil abundance on domestic investment in 22 oil-exporting non-OECD countries over the period 1996-2010. Employing static and dynamic panel estimators, the oil impact is investigated in light of other investment determinants which reflect government policies including output growth, inflation, the exchange rate, and financial and openness factors. Estimation results indicate that oil abundance exerts an adverse effect on gross domestic investment in these countries, implying the necessity of improving institutional quality and oil management polices to better exploit oil revenues and direct them towards enhancing domestic investment, thereby sustained economic growth in these countries. The third essay examines the effect of the oil price and oil price volatility on domestic fixed investment in a group of oil-importing OECD countries from 1970 to 2012 within the framework of the production function. Estimation results indicate that there is a long run relationship running from oil prices and the other control variables (output, trade, inflation, and the exchange rate) to investment where the long run coefficient on the oil price is negative and significant, but the short run coefficient on oil prices is insignificant. Thus, the outcomes of this study indicate that high oil prices are contributing to investment decline, which affirms the importance of adopting long run energy policies that might lessen investment reliance on non-renewable energy sources.

Abstract:
The dominant view in the information systems (IS) and software engineering literature is that the application of a rigorous pre-investment evaluation methodology is the key to ensuring the selection of the best IS projects ?? that is those with the highest expected value for the organisation and with the highest probability of success. While the literature is replete with methodologies that take a narrow view of IS evaluation, there is insufficient attention given to the evaluation process itself and to what constitutes successful IS evaluation. Whilst some within IS argue that the development of more elaborate evaluation methodologies, especially calculations of costs and benefits, is necessary for the advancement of the field, many report that it is not methodologies as such that need improvement. What is missing is an understanding of IS evaluation processes in practice and how organisations can adopt and apply evaluation methodologies so as to improve these processes. This thesis aims to provide in-depth knowledge of IS evaluation processes in practice and re-conceptualise the notion of the IS project proposal, the evaluation process and evaluation methodology that reflect the needs and critical issues in practice. These aims are achieved by conducting an in-depth case study of IS project evaluation processes in a company with a history of high success rates of its IS projects ($3 billion worth of successfully delivered IS projects in the past few years). By adopting Actor-Network Theory as a philosophy, approach and theoretical lens to the investigation of IS project evaluation processes in the case company the thesis demonstrates that: a) IS project proposals are dynamic, evolving and relational entities that become ??focal?? objects around which the actor-networks of aligned interest tend to emerge; b) that the evaluation process both creates an IS project proposal and its assessment within a core actor-network within which multiple business realities are enacted and continually negotiated; c) the evaluation methodology plays an important role of an actant (a non-human actor) by acting from a periphery of the core actor-network of an IS project proposal evaluation d) the evaluation methodology acts on behalf of management to regulate communication within actor-networks, ensure that company strategy is effectively implemented and that different IS Project Proposals are consistently presented in a mutually comparable manner; e) by defining a series of processes (steps), inscription aids (inscription forms, norms and rules) and mandated checkpoints the evaluation methodology engenders the evaluation process as ??science??; f) by allowing a degree of freedom in conducting the evaluation processes the methodology is also enabling the evaluation processes to emerge as ??art?? thus stimulating creativity and innovation, and finally, g) by balancing the science and the art of IS project proposal evaluation, the methodology is enabling, assisting and inspiring numerous actors in taking on ??journeys?? of IS project proposals and evaluation and thereby making a difference in their business environments. The thesis makes important contributions to knowledge in the IS discipline. Theoretically, the adoption and use of ANT revealed that the IS Project Proposal is not dormant but rather active, and key to the IS evaluation effort. The IS Project Proposal has thus been re-conceptualised as emerging, relational and dynamic. This thesis also makes a contribution to the re-conceptualisation of the evaluation methodology as being multi-purpose and active as it defines the ??science?? and enables the ??art?? in IS evaluation. The thesis also makes a number of contributions to practice, firstly by showing that documents in IS evaluation are not simply ??outputs?? that are archived away, but are active and are used to attract the right stakeholders. Secondly, it reveals that the ultimate success of the IS Proposal relies on finding a balance between the science and the art in IS evaluation and that the evaluation methodology can play a key role in promoting this balance.

Abstract:
Nos últimos anos, a energia fotovoltaica ganhou um espaço muito grande no cenário internacional e se tornou a terceira maior fonte mundial de geração de energia renovável, ficando atrás somente da energia hidroelétrica e da energia eólica. No Brasil, apesar de todas as características naturais favoráveis, tanto do ponto de vista de disponibilidade solar como de possibilidades de produção de silício com alto grau de pureza, a energia fotovoltaica tem uma participação incipiente na matriz energética. A Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica (ANEEL), através da publicação da Resolução n. 482, procurou estabelecer as condições gerais e reduzir as barreiras regulatórias existentes visando a expansão desse tipo de geração através da introdução do sistema de compensação de energia elétrica (net metering). O presente estudo buscou analisar o melhor momento para investir num projeto de implantação de um sistema de geração fotovoltaica conectado à rede (SFCR) sob a ótica do investidor, aplicando a Teoria de Opções Reais (TOR). As análises foram baseadas no fluxo de caixa estimado durante toda a vida útil do sistema gerador e o valor do projeto foi calculado considerando que o investidor poderia implantá-lo imediatamente ou ter a opção de espera por um momento mais apropriado. Os métodos tradicionais de avaliação de investimento como o Valor Presente Líquido (VPL), Taxa Interna de Retorno (TIR) e payback foram utilizados nessas análises, bem como a Teoria de Opções Reais. A partir das análises, foi possível concluir que, dada as condições específicas do projeto proposto, a melhor opção seria a realização imediata do projeto do SFCR.<br>In recent years, photovoltaics gained a very large space in the international arena and have become the world s third largest source of renewable energy, second only to hydropower and wind energy. In Brazil, despite all the favorable natural features in terms of solar availability and production of high quality silicon s possibilities, photovoltaics has an incipient participation in the energy matrix. The Agency National of Electric Energy (ANEEL), through the Resolution 482, sought to establish the general conditions and reduce existing regulatory barriers aimed at the expansion of this type of generation through the introduction of electric power compensation system (net metering). This study investigates the best time to invest in a project to establish a grid-connected photovoltaic system, from the perspective of the investor, applying the Theory of Real Options (TOR). The analysis was based on estimated cash flow throughout the life of the generating system and the project value was calculated considering that the investor could deploy it immediately or have the option of waiting for a more appropriate time. Traditional methods of investment appraisal as the Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and payback were used and real option theory (TOR) as well. From the analysis done in this study, it was concluded that, given the specific conditions of the proposed project, the best option would be held immediately the grid-connected photovoltaic system.

Full text
Abstract:
ABSTRACT Online continuous non-intrusive corrosion monitoring is fast becoming industry best-practice in the refining industry globally. This technique involves compact, robust battery-powered sensors placed strategically in the process units, coupled with wireless data delivery to enable continuous, high-quality data to be delivered directly to the desk of the corrosion engineer. This paper presents a collection of case studies from European refineries from the deployment of non-intrusive ultrasonic wall thickness monitoring systems. Beyond the initial goals of each project, the realised value gained from corrosion monitoring is also described, supported by the data and analysis measured by the monitoring system. This is then followed in each case study by the return on investment from the corrosion monitoring system at each refinery. These estimates of returns are based on the benefits realized by the operators, which include avoiding unscheduled shutdowns, diagnosing issues related to corrosion inhibition and extending turnarounds.

Abstract:
Abstract Equinor (hereafter also referred as ‘The Company’) is undergoing an internal transformation reflected not just in its culture but also in its operations and investment portfolio. At the core of this transformation is a strategy built around The Company's commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and becoming net-zero by 2050. Relative to 2015, The Company is set to have a 50% net reduction in operated emissions and an upstream carbon intensity of ~6 kg of CO2 per barrel of oil equivalent (boe) by 2030. One notable area in this space is the decarbonization of Floating Production, Storage, and Offloading (FPSO) units, which play a crucial role in offshore hydrocarbon production. The Company's decarbonization activities permeate throughout its management system. In this context, The Company sets clearly and rigorously that projects be evaluated under the Best Available Technique (BAT) principle. These evaluations include scrutiny and screening of the technologies and processes that deal with specific pollutants onboard FPSOs and fixed installations, from noise and discharges during drilling operations to solid waste and fugitive emissions. Assessment of emission reduction potential, abatement cost, benchmarking, experience sharing, and environmental budgeting are important elements in the definition and delivery of successful energy efficient projects. The Company has had a presence in Brazil for more than two decades. The Raia project (former BM-C-33) is a consortium made up of Equinor (35% and operator), Repsol Sinopec Brasil (35%), and Petrobras (30%), which represents the third FPSO unit to be put on production and operated by The Company after Peregrino and Bacalhau. The $9 billion development, located in the Campos basin at a 2900 m water depth, is a gas and oil/condensate project that will process liquids and gas to sales specifications onboard the FPSO. The offshore gas processing is based on an innovative concept and first of a kind in Brazil. With a production start in 2028, the project is to recover above 1 billion boe and deliver 15% of Brazil's entire gas needs. Emission abatement technologies to be implemented onboard the FPSO include: combined cycle for power generation (CCGT),closed flare and cargo vent systems,variable speed drive (VSD) on large compressor drives and,turbo expanders (TEX) for hydrocarbon (HC) dew pointing. The most significant success in the decarbonization onboard the FPSO is the use of a CCGT for power generation. The technology relies on excess heat recovery and a steam turbine. Through this and additional measures, the Raia project was able to shift its carbon footprint by around 64%, resulting in an intensity of 5.6 kg/boe. Further optimization and operational experience could improve the project's carbon intensity. For example, by increasing gas export rates or maintaining controlled flaring during start-up and commissioning activities.

Abstract:
"2020th was challenging for all teachers in Croatia. Although previously strengthened by the reform of the new Curricula in 2016 and the “School for Life” project in 2018, many have resisted the changes, including the digitalization of teaching. In March 2020th there were no alternatives. In the storm that threatened to stop education at all levels we had to strongly resist defeat and find the strength to fully digitalize teaching. It was no longer enough to have a systematic reform process or legalized curricula, but to make a personal digital transformation. It was imperative to carry out intrinsic reform of one's methodological skills, awaken creativity in teaching approaches and improve competences. Cooperation and exchange of experiences, as well as investment in improving digital maturity, digital pedagogy, and digital skills, were crucial for strengthening teachers’ personal potential. Series of webinars were designed to present new paradigms of teaching in the online environment in cooperation with the community of primary and secondary school mathematics teachers. Four areas in which digital competences of teachers are recognized are: Organization of online classes, Digital literacy, Communication in virtual classroom and External evaluation. E-student and E-teacher with obligatory Student-centered online teaching are key in organizing E-classroom. Subsets of such teaching for students are Project Assignment, Gamification, Flipped Classroom and Self-learning; and for teachers: Evaluation as learning, Formative and Summative evaluation and Individualized approach. Such schematic was upheld in organizing all 16 of webinars, building a foundation for perfecting teachers’ necessary skills. Positive effects are visible in the school year 2021/22 not only in online classes but in during face-to-face classes increasing digital maturity in both teachers and students and strengthening collaboration between teachers."

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has been changing the way the industry operates, especially the oil industry. In the oil exploration and production activity, specifically in the Reservoirs and Wells areas, the use of AI has been growing exponentially, with applications ranging from reservoir drainage plan evaluation (CARDOSO et al., 2017) to predicting well instability issues during drilling (LENWOUE et al., 2023). The Selection of Alternatives via Artificial Intelligence – SAVIA, arises from the Internal Startups Program, an initiative of Petrobras' Digital Transformation that aims to enable innovations conceived by the employees themselves for value generation, maximizing results and reducing costs for the Company. Centro de Estudos Avançados do Recife (CESAR), as a digital innovation center, partners with Petrobras in the development of these projects to make the ideas feasible. SAVIA emerges from the need to streamline and innovate the well conception process, known as SELEPOÇO, by improving the technological incorporation stage aligned with cost optimization expectations. AI proposes to well Designers alternatives of well configuration for a given investment project. The Minimum Viable Product (MVP) of SAVIA was developed through the construction of a decision tree algorithm based on the accumulated knowledge of Petrobras' technicians and engineers, in the form of business rules implemented in Python, and the construction of a machine learning model based on historical data from built wells. Data from lithology and other information from about 1600 offshore wells built by Petrobras in the last two decades were used to train and assess SAVIA's performance.

Abstract:
Abstract PETRONAS D Field, discovered in 1981, is a brownfield located offshore Terengganu, Malaysia in the West central part of Malay Basin. The field has been on production for over 30 years. It is an E-W trending anticline consisting of vertically stacked sandstone reservoirs segmented into several fault blocks, forming structural traps. The field has been producing primarily under a natural depletion drive supplemented by water and gas injection as an IOR strategy. Several development campaigns have been carried out in the past where additional infill wells were drilled to improve recovery. Agile FDP has demonstrated the potential to recover an additional &amp;gt;50MMSTB of oil. The key challenges to overcome were to 1) deliver the project in a tight timeframe which required comprehensive evaluation of infill proposals to ensure reserves attainability; 2) assess the risk in proposed infill wells in view of communication between fault blocks due to juxtaposition of stacked sands across fault planes 3) achieve a reasonable history-match in the presence of a large number of subsurface uncertainties and obtain a probabilistic forecast; 4) insufficient time to investigate full range of development scenarios due to the constraints of on-premises infrastructure. These challenges are addressed by the PETRONAS LiveFDP digital transformation program, through deployment of digital cloud technologies and solutions with scalable High-Performance Computing (HPC) environment. The cloud-based native and Petrotechnical applications enable remote work, ensure full data auditability in an integrated E&amp;P cognitive environment, enable large-scale probabilistic studies, and streamline the automated integration from Reservoir Engineering workflows to Economics Studies. The agile FDP workflows, enabled by unlimited HPC power, accelerate the subsurface studies and facilitate evaluation of a broad spectrum of development scenarios in an accelerated manner. The agile Field Development Planning studies completed within two months using HPC cloud solutions and workflows compared to 1-year timeframe of using on-premises infrastructure. Utilizing cloud solutions and ensemble probabilistic approach, the team has: Achieved project milestone of delivering first-oil one week ahead of the committed date and saved US$5 Million. Project delivered within sanctioned P80 cost and avoided NPT during drilling campaign. Performed detailed investigation into the impact of pressure depletion due to communication with adjacent fault blocks and with nearby "S" field through aquifer. Improved recovery of 0.7MMstb (~US$50 million) by optimizing well location and IOR injection scheme which improved sweep and pressure maintenance in the primary reservoirs. Conducted probabilistic studies of 40 uncertainty parameters by running 250 cases per ensemble in 2 days and significantly improved history-match (over 90% matched quality). Safeguarded 11 MMstb reserves with total project investment of US$328 million and realized additional 350bopd (18% higher than what was pledged in the development plan).

Abstract:
This paper evaluates the impact of rural roads improvement works to benefit indigenous communities in the highlands of Ecuador, largely dependent on agriculture for their livelihoods. The findings suggest that the program had a positive impact on health and that it increased enrollment in secondary education. We find no evidence that treated households increased their investment in plot improvements and agricultural inputs. However, household members are more likely to report self-employment in agriculture as their main occupation. The effect on agricultural output and sales was positive but not statistically significant. Finally, there is no evidence that the program had any positive effect on overall household income, female empowerment and food security.

Full text
Abstract:
The North East of Scotland is at the forefront of the global energy transition. With the transformation of the UK’s energy sector over coming decades, the lives of communities and workers in the North East will be directly affected as we collectively transition to a Net Zero economy. A Just Transition refers to a fair distribution of the burdens and benefits as society and the economy shifts to a sustainable low-carbon economy. It calls for action on providing decent green jobs, building community wealth, and embedding participation. While it is a well-established concept in the academic literature and in policy there is a notable lack of approaches and data on measuring progress towards a Just Transition. In Scotland, with Just Transition planning underway, there are calls for clarity by the Scottish Parliament, Just Transition Commission, and many stakeholders on how to evaluate progress in a place-based context. The project ‘Just Transition for Workers and Communities in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire’ brought together an interdisciplinary team from the University of Aberdeen Just Transition Lab to identify and collate the relevant evidence, and engage with a range of local stakeholders to develop regional Just Transition indicators. Previous work on this project produced a Rapid Evidence Assessment on how the oil and gas industry has shaped our region and what efforts and visions have emerged for a Just Transition. Based on the findings and a stakeholder knowledge-exchange event, we have developed a set of proposed indicators, supported by data and/or narrative, for a transition in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire across four themes: 1) Employment and skills, 2) Equality and wellbeing, 3) Democratic participation, and 4) Community empowerment, revitalisation and Net Zero. Some of the indicators are compiled from national/local data sets, including data on jobs and skills, fuel poverty or greenhouse gas emissions. Other indicators require further data collection and elaboration, but nevertheless represent important aspects of Just Transition in the region. These include workers’ rights protection, community ownership, participation and empowerment. We propose four narrative scenarios as springboards for further dialogue, policy development, investment and participation on Just Transition in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. Indicators, as proxies for evaluating progress, can be used as decision support tools, a means of informing policy, and supporting stakeholder dialogue and action as we collectively progress a Just Transition in the North East. There are no shortcuts on a way to a Just Transition. Progress towards achieving it will require a clear articulation of vision and objectives, co-developed with all stakeholders around the table. It will require collaboration, trust, difficult conversations, and compromise as we develop a collective vision for the region. Finally, it will require strong political will, substantive policy and legal reform, public and private investment, and building of social licence as we collectively build a Net Zero future in the North East.

Abstract:
The use of technologies within educational settings has become a priority for governments of developing countries. Investment in Technologies for Education (TEd), which has the goal of improving the quality of education and making it relevant to 21st century realities, has grown steadily during the past decade. However, efforts involving the evaluation of such projects have been inadequate thus far. The evaluation of educational technology projects is critically important, since it allows us to learn from the experience of carrying out such programs while providing vital information on expected results. The present document is intended for those who design, implement, and make decisions with respect to TEd. Its purpose is to foster the development of increasingly rigorous monitoring and evaluation processes that in turn lead to richer experiences that are more focused, effective, and sustainable.

Abstract:
This is the tenth consecutive year that IIC has contractually engaged OVE to support it in implementing a standardized system to account for the developmental and financial results of its investment projects. This system - within which reports like the present one serve to record the results of successive annual batches of mature projects - is compliant with the Good Practice Standards (GPS) for Private Sector Operations issued by the Evaluation Cooperation Group of Multilateral Development Banks (ECG-MDB).This is the tenth consecutive year that IIC has contractually engaged OVE to support it in implementing a standardized system to account for the developmental and financial results of its investment projects. This system - within which reports like the present one serve to record the results of successive annual batches of mature projects - is compliant with the Good Practice Standards for Private Sector Operations issued by the Evaluation Cooperation Group of Multilateral Development Banks. Shortcomings in the current GPS methodology have given rise to discussions among ECG members, as well as within IDB, on the possible benefits of increased convergence with the standards for evaluation of public sector operations. These discussions are likely to lead to adjustments in the approach to private sector project evaluation. Given methodological shortcomings in GPS, results in this report should be considered with caution. The report presents the application of the standards to an annual batch of 24 mature projects, corresponding to a total IIC investment of US$187.9 million. Under the current version of the good practice evaluation standards, 79% of projects (US$165.7 million) rated at least mostly successful in Development Outcomes, while Investment Outcome was rated as satisfactory for 88% of the projects (US$166.2 million in IIC investment). IIC Work Quality presented mostly favorable results, with 79% of projects (US$171 million in IIC investment) receiving satisfactory ratings. Finally, from this limited project-by-project evaluation perspective, IIC seems to still have added value to a majority of clients: 63% of projects (US$131 million) rated satisfactory in Additionality. Despite the likelihood of future methodological changes, the discipline brought about by the annual exercises like the one reflected in this report has allowed IIC to strengthen its self-evaluation capabilities over the last decade. In addition, the system has also allowed IIC to identify useful lessons to improve future IIC projects in similar areas, as well as highlight opportunities to increase the reliability of its evaluation system. Lessons from this report suggest further opportunities to enhance IIC's project appraisal, structuring and supervision processes by fully leveraging IIC's financial and nonfinancial (technical assistance) product offering. These lessons also appeared in prior batches and were the subject of recommendations in last year's report. Instead, this report has a single recommendation: work with OVE to revamp IIC's project evaluation system to address the shortcomings of the current one, while seeking harmonization across IDB's private sector and sovereign guarantee windows. This will likely entail overhauling both IIC's ex-ante project assessment tools (with a view towards enhancing project evaluability) and IIC's project monitoring and ex-post assessment approach.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper shares our experience of developing an EU-level baseline for research and innovation (R&amp;I) in food systems, in support of the European Commission’s transformation agenda, with specific reference to the Food 2030 initiative. Food 2030 relates to the EU’s mission-oriented approach to R&amp;I, viewing it within the context of a dynamic food system with multiple dependencies and many different actors. This approach aligns with a growing recognition that, in order to achieve transformational change, the interactions and interdependencies of all components within a given system and its relationship to other systems must be considered. In a transformative R&amp;I system, innovation itself is no longer the endgoal but is viewed as an enabler to solve societal and environmental challenges (the end-objective). Linking such broader outcomes back to specific R&amp;I inputs is not a straightforward endeavour. Furthermore, the inter- and transdisciplinary nature of a systems approach, as well as the nature of systems thinking itself, make it hard to define evaluative boundaries. Traditional public sector approaches to supporting R&amp;I do not align well with such an approach, with implications for evaluating R&amp;I policy. The paper focuses specifically on the novel aspects of the EU’s approach to framing food systems R&amp;I and the evaluation challenges this presents, as well as how we have worked to mitigate these.

Full text
Abstract:
The 2008-2012 Country Program Evaluation (CPE) concludes that the Bank's program was programmatically aligned with Government's National Plan for Human Development and addressed five areas essential for growth and poverty reduction. The one significant omission in the Bank's program from a development perspective was the lack of attention to governance an area identified as a priority for future strategies by the previous CPE. The Bank played a central role in financing the country's fiscal gap over the CPE period, reflecting increased country demand in the context of the global financial crisis. Nevertheless, time constraints limited the Bank's analytical efforts to identify important policy reforms in the first series of three programmatic policy-based loans, resulting in relatively weak policy content in those loans. Even with significant increases in the level of concessional resources allocated to Nicaragua and greater complexity in programming, the efficiency of program execution improved. In terms of developmental effectiveness, project-level results have generally been poorly documented. Furthermore, the Bank has at times overlooked the issue of recurrent cost financing for services initiated under investment loans, leading to the untimely suspension of programs and undermining the effectiveness of the initial investment. In light of CPE findings, OVE recommends that the Bank: (i) undertake further diagnostic and analytic work to delineate the Bank¿s potential role and value-added; (ii) continue to support improvements in the efficiency of public expenditure, including in the electricity sector; (iii) strengthen the measurement and reporting of results at the project level; (iv) identify potential sources of financing for the continued provision of services beyond project completion; and (v) consider allowing D-2 countries access to emergency lending facilities to meet fiscal needs in times of crisis.
