Summary
Most former Yugoslav and post-Soviet states show limited progress in addressing energy poverty, housing quality, and gender inequality. Ukraine demonstrates more advanced energy poverty policies.
Area of Science:
- Political Science
- Energy Policy
- Sociology
Background:
- State capacity in policy development is linked to political priorities and statecraft.
- Energy poverty is a significant issue in former Yugoslav and post-Soviet states outside the EU.
- These nations are navigating EU regulatory alignment while facing domestic energy hardship.
Purpose of the Study:
- To compare and contrast energy poverty amelioration policies in Serbia, Montenegro, Ukraine, and Georgia.
- To analyze the time horizons, socio-technical systems, and target groups of these policies.
- To examine energy sector responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Main Methods:
- Comparative policy analysis of four selected countries (Serbia, Montenegro, Ukraine, Georgia).
- Focus on policy measures addressing energy poverty, housing quality, energy efficiency, and gender inequality.
- Inclusion of energy sector-specific COVID-19 pandemic responses.
Main Results:
- Most states have made minimal progress on improving housing quality, energy efficiency, and gender inequality.
- Energy poverty is recognized in policy across all case study nations.
- Ukraine has developed more sophisticated energy poverty programs and approaches.
Conclusions:
- Substantive challenges in housing and energy efficiency persist in most studied states.
- While acknowledged, comprehensive solutions for energy poverty remain underdeveloped.
- Ukraine stands out for its more advanced policy initiatives in tackling energy poverty.

01:12Power and Energy
787
The power and energy delivered to an element are subjects of great significance in the field of electrical engineering. It is a well-known fact that a 100-watt light bulb emits more light than a 60-watt one. Therefore, power and energy calculations play a crucial role in the analysis of electrical circuits.
Power, defined as the time rate of expending or absorbing energy, is quantified in units called watts (W). The relation between power and energy is mathematically given as

Using electric appliances for a longer period of time consumes more electrical energy and results in a higher electric bill. The energy produced by the transfer of electrons from one point to another is known as electrical energy. If power is delivered at a constant rate, the electrical energy can be defined as the product of power used by the device for a period of time. The energy unit on electric bills is the kilowatt-hour, where one kilowatt-hour is equivalent to 3.6 × 106 joules.

Organisms must balance energy intake with the energy required for growth, maintenance and reproduction. These trade-offs result in a variety of survivorship and reproductive strategies, including semelparity and iteroparity. Semelparous species, like annual plants, have only one reproductive episode in their lifetimes and consequently have short lifespans. Iteroparous species, by contrast, have many reproductive events during their lifetimes but have relatively few offspring. These two...

01:17Energy and Power Signals
287
In an electrical system with a resistor, voltage and current signals facilitate the measurement of power and energy across the resistor. For a continuous-time signal, the total energy over a time interval is defined as the integral of the square of the signal's magnitude over that interval. Mathematically, this is expressed as:

01:21Energy Losses in Transformers
866
In an ideal transformer, it is assumed that there are no energy losses, and, hence, all the power at the primary winding is transferred to the secondary winding. However, in reality, the transformers always have some energy losses, and, hence, the output power obtained at the secondary winding is less than the input power at the primary winding due to energy losses.
There are four main reasons for energy losses in transformers.
The first cause can be the high resistance of the...
