Presenta dos secciones fundamentales: Primero, se analizan críticamente las principales tendencias teórico - metodológicas de las fuentes especializadas; segundo, se ilustran los resultados obtenidos del diagnóstico realizado en el sector energético renovable de la provincia Sancti Spíritus, Cuba. La evidencia teórica fundamental sugiere un carácter heterogéneo en las herramientas propuestas por la comunidad especializada, siendo insuficientes desde la óptica económico - financiera; en cuanto a la evidencia práctica fundamental, se aprecia un empleo mínimo de las mismas en el territorio espirituano, extensivo a todo el territorio nacional. Los métodos empleados combinan la revisión documental, las opiniones críticas de los autores, la recopilación de datos de campo (de estudios de factibilidad fundamentalmente) y la aplicación de una encuesta al capital humano de las entidades más representativas]]></p></abstract>

It has two important sections: First, it is analyzed, by a critical view, the main theoretical - methodological trends of specialized sources; second, it is showed the main results of the diagnostics carried on in the renewable energetic sector of Sancti Spiritus province, Cuba. The main theoric evidence suggests a heterogeneous character of the proposed tools by the specialized community, being insufficient from economic - finance optics; in relation with the main practical evidence it is appreciated a minimum use of these tools in that territory, with extension all over the country.
