@Osirisdleon @AbelMartinezD_ @DiputadosRD Esa promesa simplista de @CDEEE_RD no es factible en el mundo de hoy. Ver http://t.co/KFB9i3vEIXLo que sigue es una actulización que hice en la petición http://chn.ge/1e447Uk que sugiero que firmen por favor para ayudar que el sector eléctrico sea socialmente deseable
— Jose A Vanderhorst S (@gmh_upsa) September 23, 2013
Cuando se le pregunta a un cliente que quiere, de seguro que es un servicio más barato, más confiable y más amigable con el medio ambiente. Esa es la promesa de CDEEE, que dejó de ser factlble porque el mundo cambió.
En una situación parecida, Henry Ford dijo que si le hubiera preguntado a los clientes qué querían le hubieran dicho caballos más rápidos. Igualmente, Steve Jobs en la situación actual ofreció a sus clientes algo que no estaban esperando pero les encantó,
Necesitamos reorganizar la industria eléctrica para que gente como Ford y Jobs nos traigan algo que no estamos esperando pero que nos encantará. Mi servicio es simplemente ayudar a reorganizar el sector eléctrico para hacer una competencia de modelos de negocios en varios segmentos del mercado.
Como otra muesta de mi preparación, pongo a su disposición el acceso a casi 300 notas y artículos publicados en el Blog EWPC
Mensaje recién enviado a los firmantes de la petición "Lic. Enrique Ramírez. Presidente Comisión Nacional de Energía: Contrate por favor al Ing. Consultor José Antonio Vanderhorst Silverio." Si no has firmado todavía, hazlo ahora mismo aquí.Falta la prueba que ampara la extensión por 5 años facultades de la CDEEE http://t.co/6yNJ5RTwFy
— Jose A Vanderhorst S (@gmh_upsa) September 22, 2013
"Consideró como acertada la decisión del presidente Danilo Medina de extender por un período de cinco años las facultades que tiene la CDEEE antes de que entre en vigencia la ley que crea el Ministerio de Energía y Minas.".
Abajo aparece la traducción del comentario que coloqué debajo del artículo “Three Regulatory Models That Could Help Utilities Embrace the Future (Tres modelos regulatorios que podrían ayudar a las empresas eléctricas a abrazar el futuro ),” publicado en Greentech Media el 17 de septiembre de 2013. Es interesante poder contrastar esos modelos con lo que aparece en el artículo Riqueza sin CDEEE, donde resultó evidente que ninguno de los demás ponentes que participaron en seminario CODIA-FED “UN NUEVO MODELO PARA EL SISTEMA ELÉCTRICO DOMINICANO” presentaron un nuevo modelo.@AbelMartinezD_ @DiputadosRD Firmen por favor petición para ayudar que el sector eléctrico sea socialmente deseable http://t.co/87skLjrwRl

Según el libro de Mark W. Maier, “The Art of Systems Architecting (El Arte de la Arquitectura de Sistemas),” tercera edición, "Las cuatro métodologías más importantes en el proceso de arquitectura se caracterizan como normativa, racional, participativa y heurística." Dos de esas metodologías, normativa y participativa, se han utilizado ampliamente en los modelos de regulación de la industria de la energía.
La normativa se utiliza cuando se transfiere un modelo de regulación que funciona a una nueva jurisdicción, que muchas veces no funciona debido a las diferencias en el entorno del sistema. Es fácil llegar a la conclusión de que todos los tres modelos de este artículo se basan en la metodología participativa.
Por lo que yo sé, sólo hay un modelo de regulación en que se ha tratado de aplicar la metodología heurística y es el Modelo Marco de la Electricidad Sin Control de Precios (EWPC-AF, por sus siglas en inglés), donde han emergido muchos conceptos nuevos. Para tener una idea de este cuarto enfoque, que tiene como objetivo tratar la enorme complejidad del problema perverso (sistémico) de la industria de la energía eléctrica, por favor, eche un vistazo al post Electricity Without Price Controls Blog Index - 321 entries
