October 1, 2025 Natiuska Traña No comments yet

Costa Rica’s Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE) has implemented a new methodology for purchasing surplus electricity from distributed generators.

ICE will pay using two product blocks, Variable and Firm, and will price across four categories that reflect technology, geography and delivery window. ICE currently counts 1,443 distributed-generation clients with 34 MW of installed capacity.

Telecommunications and Mobile Internet: Who Will Defend Us Now?

November 17, 2023 Natiuska Traña No comments yet

The theory, and in many cases, experience, has demonstrated that competition benefits consumers of any product or service by improving quality, prices, and options.

As a consequence of the Great Depression in 1929 in the United States, the so-called Volstead Act, which prohibited the consumption of alcohol, was repealed.
