Preview Questions Energy Researcher | Role Specific Skill

Question 1: How does the concept of mitigation measures apply in the EIA process for energy projects?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It involves identifying actions to reduce or eliminate adverse impacts

It aims to minimize stakeholder engagement with the project

It focuses on maximizing the financial benefits of the project

It strictly assesses the economic feasibility without environmental focus

Question 2: What is the role of supercritical steam cycles in increasing the efficiency of biomass power plants?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It allows higher temperature and pressure to increase turbine efficiency

It allows the use of low-quality biomass waste

It increases the amount of electricity generated by using natural gas

It reduces emissions by increasing the combustion temperature

Question 3: In energy market analysis, what is the significance of a "regression discontinuity design" (RDD) when assessing the impact of policy changes?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It offers a way to forecast energy consumption based on past data and consumer behavior

It helps estimate causal effects by comparing market outcomes before and after a policy change

It helps identify the optimal market structure for energy competition

It provides predictions on future market prices based on past trends

Question 4: In an EIA, which of the following environmental factors is commonly considered when assessing air quality?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Question 5: How are sustainability indicators used in an EIA for assessing energy projects?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

They only focus on minimizing financial costs

They are used to predict market competitiveness and profitability

They restrict the scope to only physical impacts on ecosystems

They measure the long-term environmental, social, and economic impacts

Question 6: How does an integrated resource planning (IRP) process support energy policy development?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By reducing energy consumption at the consumer level

By ensuring the dominance of fossil fuels in the energy mix

By setting prices for energy products across regions

By evaluating long-term power generation needs and balancing resource portfolios
