“…The limitation of the method is the information available in the photo-voltaic solar plant, in this case, the minimum information is two years; and the survey was realized before and after the implementation. In consequence, this new root cause analysis for the identification of failures modes could be used for complex new business models as the generation of clean water based on PV solar plant [ 29 ] or the process for Lithium mining, it requires high reliability in theses process without sudden failures.…”

“…The mining company agreed to take responsibility for designing, financing, building, and operating a wastewater treatment plant to handle about 95 percent of the city's wastewater and to use some of the treated water for its mining processes and discharge the rest into the river to be used downstream by farmers. In tandem, the mining stakeholders with this agreement secured the rights to expand its operations, while the municipality could save costs and focus on building and operating wastewater treatment plants [55]. Another case of study is in the south of Peru, where 560,880 panels were installed to develop a CE process to obtain water from the atmospheric humidity, anticipating that the production of clean water could serve to create green spaces in the dry/desert environment with the use of clean energy, and thus with this technology closed loops system can be put into action [56].…”

Circular Economy (CE) is noted as an emerging tool or framework to support sustainable production and consumption agenda. In addition, CE is aiming to be a trigger for redefining economic growth pathways to be sustainable, inclusive, and sensitive to ecological and environmental agendas and to focus its operational standards on co-creating societal benefits. Concerning the guiding principles and the standards of practice applied to implement and scale circular economy, this study will provide an overview of the water sector-specific circularity roadmaps and strategies in the Latin American Region. By using a semi-systematic review, document analysis, and qualitative assessment approach, we highlight framings and operational pathways, gaps, and needs within existing practices of circularity in the water sector. The results provide an overview of CE pathways at the national level of selected countries in LAR iterating those nations reflect various levels of advancement (low to high) with CE-focused innovations and policy support structures specific to the water and wastewater sectors. Towards the closing, the study is pointing to the ‘call for action’ to integrate outstanding advances and innovations in the circular economy within sectoral mandates for water and wastewater management, making an argument that circularity in the water sector could serve as an accelerator toward implementing the agenda outlined in Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and in particular for SDG 6 (water security for all).

“…When the air is heated, its density becomes lower and rises, while the cold layers descend, thus establishing a double stream of air. Wind energy can be transformed mainly into electrical energy by means of wind turbines, or into motive force using windmills (Ancaya-Martínez et al, 2022b). It is a safe and free energy, but it has the disadvantages that the wind speed is variable and unreliable, wind turbines produce noise and wildlife can be affected, since there is a risk that birds will fall into them and die.…”

“…On the contrary, the industrialized countries have shown very significant progress on this issue, as an example of this, countries such as China have proven successful in electricity and rural development in their areas (Moreno and Larrahondo, 2021). However, for developing countries, there is an obvious problem, especially in their rural and/or remote areas (Ancaya-Martínez et al, 2022a). One of the main reasons for this is the absence of government support for rural development, however, in recent years, multiple technological, technical projects have appeared which seek to guarantee electricity sustainability in the implementation area .…”

This work quantifies the evolution in the implementation and development of renewable energies in Colombia, as well as evidence the current challenges and development prospects. The high demand for electricity in Colombia is increasing due to the great increase in population, industry and commerce, which generates greater energy consumption and as a consequence economic, social and environmental problems. The objective of this study was to analyze the behavior of the energy projects submitted to the Mining Energy Planning Group (UPME) during the last 15 years until July 2022, as well as to study the research areas with the highest performance. technology and the corresponding radiation intensity. In addition, it shows an historic information about the projects presented both not in force as of the date of closing of this investigation, classified according to their source, according to their range of power and according to its stage of implementation, finally, we made a synthesis of the new regulations governing the motivation and implementation of projects with renewable energy sources, being as this work a very good source of reference for further studies of the implementation of renewable energy sources in Colombia.
