Energy auctions and renewable energy-specific auctions are a major policy instrument for the promotion of renewable energy in Panama.

Law 6 of 1997 established auctions as the procurement method for distribution companies. It also established a 5% price score premium on renewable energy sources bidding in auctions.

Law 42 of 2011 established priority for biomass projects in electricity auctions.

Law 44 of 2011 established wind auctions, providing 15-year PPAs. It limited wind power contracts to 5% of projected electricity consumption, which was later relaxed by Law 18 of 2013 to a “percentage determined according to criteria of energy policy, economy, competition and system security.” The first Panama wind power auction was held in 2011 (LPI-ETESA-05-11). Resolution 1520 of 2013 recommended the realization of a wind power-specific auction for 15-year PPAs for up to 7.5% of distribution companies’ demand, leading to Panama’s second wind-power auction in 2013 (LPI-ETESA 03-13).

Law 37 of 2013 established solar power auctions. Resolution 1579 of 2013 recommended the realization of a solar-specific auction for 20-year PPAs for up to 7.5% distribution companies’ demand. This led in Panama’s first solar auction in 2014 (LPI-ETESA 03-14).

Oil Industry Braces for Years-Long Iran War

Oil producers, traders, and refiners are bracing for a prolonged war between the United States and Iran in the Persian Gulf with little to no hope of a quick resolution. By extension, they are also preparing for higher prices for longer, a theme present at this year’s edition of the Asia Pacific Petroleum Conference. Reuters’ Clyde Russell reported this week that the mood at APPEC was not particularly cheerful as hostilities in the Middle East escalate once again, suggesting achieving peace would be quite a challenge. The Reuters columnist…

Stolen Electricity is Powering Illegal Crypto Farms Across the Globe

Electricity theft is a global problem, and it’s getting more dire all the time. While the problem is most common in developing countries, where grid infrastructure is limited and utilities and state authorities have lower oversight capacities, developed countries are not immune either. This theft can occur in many forms and at many scales, from individuals tapping into power lines to power their individual residences to large-scale and sophisticated theft schemes to power entire cryptocurrency mining farms. Just this week, Mexican authorities…

The Race to Solve Nuclear Energy’s Biggest Problem

Several countries are now looking to develop or expand their nuclear energy capacity over the coming decades. However, one challenge remains – nuclear waste. Disposing of waste materials from nuclear energy operations remains a complex task with no perfect solution. As countries worldwide have grown their nuclear power capacity, many governments are still struggling to decide on the best solution…

Iran’s Security Crackdown Runs Into Resistance From Within

Iran's parliament is trying to turn fears of foreign infiltration into law. But as lawmakers work through the legislation, the debate is exposing an increasingly awkward question for the Islamic Republic: How far should the state go in policing Iranians' contact with the outside world? At the center of that debate is Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, who, at least publicly, is doing a balancing act. He has defended the need for tougher measures against foreign infiltration while warning that the current draft of the legislation goes too…

Why More Homes Are Switching From Gas to Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to gas-powered central heating systems and are increasingly being used in new construction, often driven by government incentives. A heat pump uses technology similar to that found in a refrigerator or an air conditioner, extracting heat from a source, such as the surrounding air, and amplifying and transferring the heat to where it is needed. As most of the heat is transferred rather than generated, heat pumps are far more efficient than conventional heating technologies such as boilers…
