“…The growth that has impressed all energy managers is being driven thanks to changes in country legislation and the expansion of political support that has been encouraged at various summits such as COP 28 in Dubai [18]. However, it is still worrying that the world is still consuming fossil fuels in percentages similar to those in previous years, which implies that polluting energies are not being derailed and are quite strong [19]. The great confidence that renewable energy systems have achieved, which has just been articulated, had to go through a restructuring in the legal bodies of the countries, but it is yet to be internalized among citizens.…”

This research presents a renewable energy system that takes advantage of the energy potential available in the territory. This study emerges as a relevant option to provide solutions to geological risk areas where there are buildings that, due to emergency situations at certain times of the year during deep winter, are a target of danger and where its inhabitants would find it difficult to abandon their properties. The record of mass movements covering the city of Cuenca-Ecuador and part of the province has shown that the main triggering factor of this type of movement comprises the geological characteristics of tertiary formations characterized by lithological components that become unstable in the presence of water and due to their slopes being pronounced. Hybrid systems are effective solutions in distributed electricity generation, especially when it comes to helping people and their buildings in times of great need and the required electricity generation is basic. A hybrid photovoltaic, wind and hydrokinetic system has been designed that supplies electrical energy to a specific area on the opposite geographical side that is completely safe. The renewable energy system is connected to the public electricity grid available on site; however, in the event of an emergency the grid is disconnected for safety and only the hybrid system will work with the support of a battery backup system. In this study, the Homer Pro simulation tool was used and its results indicate that renewable systems that include PV, HKT and WT elements are economically viable, with a COE of USD 0.89/kWh.

“…Lu Hongyou and other scholars evaluated China's current environmental protection tax policy from the perspective of "double dividend", and found that the policy can produce good environmental effects and cannot promote economic growth [3] . Later, scholars at home and abroad have analyzed the policy trend and optimal tax rate design of environmental protection tax [4][5] , the positive effects of environmental protection tax policy on resource energy consumption, environmental protection, green innovation [6][7][8][9] , and the impact of policy implementation on environmental investment, industrial structure optimization, and governance effects [10][11][12] .…”

Since China implemented the environmental protection tax policy in 2018, its economy has moved to high-quality development, making it important to analyse its economic impact. This study takes China's current environmental protection tax as the research object, uses the double difference model (DID) with urban panel data from 2003 to 2019 to empirically analyse the impact of China's current environmental protection tax collection standard rise on urban economic growth. The results reveal that environmental protection tax does not increase regional economic quantity but does improve regional economic quality. In order to achieve sustainable economic growth in quality and quantity, the environmental protection tax system should be upgraded, the collection and management capacity and level should be increased, and the collection standard should be adjusted in some regions.
