Development of school energy policy and energy education plans: a comparative case study in three Wisconsin school communities / Lane, Jennie F; Floress, Kristin; Rickert, Melissa   Journal Article
Lane, Jennie F Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Through a qualitative comparative case study, this investigation examined the process by which three school districts in Wisconsin, U.S.A., developed a school energy policy and complementary energy education plan. To guide the process, the researchers created an outline of recommended steps for the districts to follow. Although there were variations in the sequence and perceived ease of the steps, the Energy Task Force members involved in the process found the outline to be a supportive guide. Further analysis of the cases involved interviewing members of the Energy Task Forces to identify facilitating and obstructing factors. The study concluded that factors such as level of environmental literacy, along with aspects of the school culture and leadership, interacted to influence the successful drafting of school energy policies and education plans. In addition to introducing an outline of recommended steps that can be used by other school policy development teams interested in promoting energy efficiency, this study adds insights into the analysis of energy policy work within the context of a school setting.

Energy income and farm viability: evidence from USDA farm survey data / Grout, Travis; Ifft, Jennifer; Malinovskaya, Anna   Journal Article
Grout, Travis Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract There are frequent and increasing conflicts between energy development and agricultural land use. In these debates, claims are commonly made that energy income can improve farm viability. We develop a conceptual model that provides a framework for when and how energy income could improve farm viability. If farms face difficulty accessing credit, they invest at below optimal levels. In such cases, energy income may be used to increase investment, thus strengthening the farm economy. We test the predictions of this model with detailed, nationally representative U.S. Department of Agriculture farm survey data. This large, cross sectional dataset is well suited to propensity score matching and allows us to test whether observationally similar farms with and without energy income have different levels of credit access and capital investment. We are able to test whether model outcomes are similar under different farm and energy income definitions. Overall, we find little evidence that energy income improves credit access or increases capital investments. This suggests that on average the benefits of energy income for farm household consumption do not necessarily extend to the farm economy or agricultural production.

From laggard to leader: explaining offshore wind developments in the UK / Kern, Florian; Smith, Adrian; Shaw, Chris; Raven, Rob, Verhees, Bram   Journal Article
Smith, Adrian Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Offshore wind technology has recently undergone rapid deployment in the UK. And yet, up until recently, the UK was considered a laggard in terms of deploying renewable energy. How can this burst of offshore wind activity be explained? An economic analysis would seek signs for newfound competitiveness for offshore wind in energy markets. A policy analysis would highlight renewable energy policy developments and assess their contribution to economic prospects of offshore wind. However, neither perspective sheds sufficient light on the advocacy of the actors involved in the development and deployment of the technology. Without an account of technology politics it is hard to explain continuing policy support despite rising costs. By analysing the actor networks and narratives underpinning policy support for offshore wind, we explain how a fairly effective protective space was constructed through the enroling of key political and economic interests.

Least-cost network evaluation of centralized and decentralized / Levin, Todd; Thomas, Valerie M   Journal Article
Levin, Todd Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract The choice between centralized and decentralized electricity generation is examined for 150 countries as a function of population distribution, electricity consumption, transmission cost, and the cost difference between decentralized and centralized electricity generation. A network algorithm is developed to find the shortest centralized transmission network that spans a given fraction of the population in a country. The least-cost combination of centralized and decentralized electricity that serves the country is determined. Case studies of Botswana, Uganda, and Bangladesh illustrate situations that are more and less suited for decentralized electrification. Specific maps for centralized and decentralized generation are presented to show how the least-cost option varies with the relative costs of centralized and decentralized generation and transmission cost. Centralized and decentralized fractions are calculated for 150 countries. For most of the world's population, centralized electricity is the least-cost option. For a number of countries, particularly in Africa, substantial populations and regions may be most cost-effectively served by decentralized electricity.

Offshore energy in the Levant basin: leaders, laggards, and spoilers / Paraschos, Peter E   Journal Article
Paraschos, Peter E Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract With Israel and Cyprus recently confirming massive offshore gas reserves in the Levant Basin, the eastern Mediterranean Sea region is emerging as a significant new source of natural gas. The major economic and geopolitical implications explored in this essay include the accelerating regional competition to develop offshore energy resources; the related pursuit of major foreign investment for upstream energy development; consequences for regional gas export markets, notably the European Union; the influence of regional rivalries and conflicts on regional energy development; and the impact of the new energy resources on the regional balance of power.

Overview of legislative and institutional approaches to China's / Yu, Xiaojiang   Journal Article
Yu, Xiaojiang Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract Legislation and institutions are two important components of energy development. To better understand and improve energy development in China, a comprehensive examination of its energy legislation and institutions is essential. This paper highlights the major challenges confronting energy legislation and institutional approaches; as well, it explores possible alternatives in relation to future energy development in China. The paper concludes that shortcomings vis-a-vis structure, content, auxiliary legal documents, and clarity are the main barriers obstructing the efficacy of China's energy law systems. Lack of a unified national energy administration and the ineffectiveness of the country's energy institutions could prove major institutional hindrances to China's energy sector development. In future, the following legislative and institutional approaches should be adopted: (1) formulation of the basic energy law and specific laws should proceed without further delay; (2) the development of auxiliary legal documents should proceed without delay; (3) improving the effectiveness of energy legislation should proceed without delay; (4) setting up a unified national energy administration; and (5) enhancing institutional development.
