Can Sustainable Consumers and Producers Save the Planet
Addressing sustainable development and climate change together using sustainomics
This paper seeks to practically address two major global challenges—sustainable development and climate change. Developmental problems such as poverty are already formidable. Climate change is the ultimate risk multiplier, exacerbating the other crises too. Its worst impacts fall on the poor who are least responsible for the problem. The world currently faces multiple economic, social, and environmental threats. The economic collapse is the most …

Rural Electrification
This paper analyses the international experience in rural electrification (RE) over the past few decades. The current status of RE is reviewed, and demonstrated benefits are identified. A case study of RE policy analysis in Indonesia is presented. The recommendations should be helpful to decision makers formulating an RE Policy for Indonesia. Finally, some general prerequisites for successful formulation and implementation of an RE strategy are s…
Costs Incurred by Residential Electricity Consumers Due to Power Failures
The theoretical model presented here suggests that the principal cost of power failures to residential electricity consumers is the loss of leisure, while the marginal value of leisure equals the household's net income earning rate. Results of a Brazilian survey support this hypothesis and reveal activity pat-terns in urban households. T he impetus for this study arose from the need to establish appropriate standards of reliability for electricit…
