Energy conservation and emission reduction policies for the ele / Li Li; Tan, Zhongfu; Wang, Jianhui; Xu, Jun   Journal Article
Wang, Jianhui Journal Article

Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract Because of China's increasingly limited energy supplies and serious environmental pollution, much attention has been paid to conserving energy and reducing emissions to help the country's economy achieve sustainable development. As the electric power industry is the largest consumer of coal resources in China and also emits high levels of air pollutants each year, the Chinese government has enacted many technical and economic policies for energy conservation and emission reduction in the last few years. These policies are summarized in this paper, along with relevant laws and medium- and long-term plans, all of which address ideas such as adjusting the power generation mix, promoting demand-side management, introducing energy-efficient scheduling, and installing desulfurization units. The paper also assesses the results of these policies by analyzing several key indicators of energy consumption and emissions. The analysis shows that although some progress has been made in conserving energy and reducing emissions, substantial work is still required for China to catch up with developed countries. Some suggestions for future work are provided.

Project finance risk evaluation of the electric power industry / Nikolic, Dragana Makajic; Jednak, Sandra; Benkovic, Sladana; Poznanic, Vladimir   Journal Article
Nikolic, Dragana Makajic Journal Article

Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract From the aspect of the development of a country, the energy sector represents a domain of strategic interest. Generation and use of energy resources most often belongs to the public sector, and are most often under the influence of the government in most countries. This paper analyzes the risks that are characteristic to the business of the public enterprise, Electric Power Industry of Serbia (EPS). EPS has started its restructuring and is adjusting to changes and challenges imposed by the launched reforms in the energy sector. However, due to certain limitations, it is still not possible to implement its complete restructuring and modernization. The paper aims to point at the risks a potential strategic partner faces. The risks have been identified as commercial, financial and political, classification immanent for project finance, and their evaluation was done using Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA). Risk analysis was performed based on current conditions for two potential scenarios that predict different types of changes in the analyzed period. The results of the analysis show that the potential strategic partner should pay special attention to price risks, estimation, investments, project activity neglect, quasi-risks and debt collection.

Regulatory mechanism design of GHG emissions in the electric power industry in China / Feng, Tian-tian   Journal Article
Feng, Tian-tian Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract As one of the key industries of CO2 emissions, the electric power industry plays an important role in China's response to climate change. Recently, the electric power industry has achieved a certain amount of emission reductions through optimizing power structure and enhancing energy efficiency. However, the efforts to address climate change still lack of orderly management and supervision. In order to fulfill the goals of ‘Notice of the 13th Five-Year Work Plan for Controlling GHG emissions’ in China, that by the end of 2020 CO2 emissions per unit of GDP should decrease by 18% compared with that in 2015, there is an urgent need to establish and innovate regulatory mechanisms for Greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions in the electric power industry. This study discusses the status quo and existing problems of GHG emissions regulation of the electric power industry in China from the perspectives of regulatory agencies, measures and accounting methods. Then based on the regulatory experiences from developed countries and combined the real-life characteristics in China, a new GHG emissions regulatory index system and supervision scheme for the electric power industry is established. Finally, some recommendations are proposed for further regulatory mechanism innovation of the electric power industry in China.

State strategy for the accelerated development of the electric power industry in the soviet far east (1964-1991): historical exp / Maklyukov, Alexey   Journal Article
MAKLYUKOV, Alexey Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract This article examines historical aspects of the development and implementation of the state strategy for the accelerated development of the electric power industry in the Far East in 1964-1991. Problems concerning power supply in this part of the country are analyzed, programs for the development of the regional electric power industry are considered, difficulties of their implementation are revealed, and structural changes in the industry and results of electrification of the Far East are characterized. The strategy of regional electric power industry development envisaged sharply increasing the production of electricity through the development of new energy resources and large-scale construction, which would thereby solve the electricty shortage, and ensure rapid development of the industry. The strategy in the Far East began to be implemented when the Soviet economy was experiencing a crisis and developing in a conservative and inorganic way. Harsh natural and climatic conditions, the vast
