Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'irrésistible ascension des marchés internationaux (pétrole, gaz naturel, charbon), la libéralisation des échanges, la déréglementation des prix, la contestation des monopoles publics de l'électricité, la recherche d'approvisionnements diversifiés et flexibles sont des faits indéniables. Cependant, ils se heurtent à la vulnérabilité politique des importations et des conflits qu'elle nourrit, aux besoins énergétiques insatisfaits dans nombre de pays en développement, aux risques environnementaux liés à une croissance non maîtrisée des consommations, à la diffusion interrompue de techniques très performantes. Aussi ne faut-il pas s'étonner des tâtonnements des nouveaux modes de régulation dans le cadre d'espaces économiques intégrés (Communauté européenne) ou de coopérations internationales. Pour exposer ces grandes questions, l'auteur s'appuie sur une analyse des déterminants techniques et économiques de la production, du transport et de l'utilisation de toutes les sources d'énergie. Des données numériques très récentes, des références théoriques (formation des prix, monopole naturel...) ou méthodologiques (programmation des équipements électriques...), traitées sous forme d'encadrés, alimentent l'argumentation. L'ouvrage est destiné à tous ceux qu'intéressent les problèmes de l'énergie dans l'économie mondiale : professeurs de lycées, élèves de classes préparatoires aux écoles de commerce, étudiants de sciences économiques, d'AES, d'instituts d'études politiques, d'histoire-géographie, enfin jeunes professionnels d'entreprises ou d'administrations soucieux de compléter leurs connaissances. Jean-Marie Martin est directeur de recherche au CNRS. Il a dirigé l'Institut d'économie et de politique de l'Énergie (CNRS-université de Grenoble) et a été rapporteur général du Groupe long terme Énergie du IXe Plan. Il est actuellement président du Pôle universitaire et scientifique européen de Grenoble.
Download or read book Energy Transitions written by Olivier Labussière and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-30 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book elucidates what it means to transition to alternative sources of energy and discusses the potential for this energy transition to be a more democratic process. The book dynamically describes a recent sociotechnical study of a number of energy transitions occurring in several countries - France, Germany and Tunisia, and involving different energy technologies - including solar, on/off-shore wind, smart grids, biomass, low-energy buildings, and carbon capture and storage. Drawing on a pragmatist tradition of social inquiry, the authors examine the consequences of energy transition processes for the actors and entities that are affected by them, as well as the spaces for political participation they offer. This critical inquiry is organised according to foundational categories that have defined the energy transition - ‘renewable’ energy resources, markets, economic instruments, technological demonstration, spatiality (‘scale’) and temporality (‘horizon(s)’). Using a set of select case studies, this book systematically investigates the role these categories play in the current developments in energy transitions.

Download or read book Sustainable Production System written by Clément Morlat and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-06-03 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wealth is no longer just an ability to live well in a world shaped by human activities. It is also an ability to push back or defer the limits of a world in biological and climatic closure. This book examines the theoretical conflicts and the power plays which often oppose the socio-political and technical-financial practices of recognition of what intervenes in the production of this wealth i.e. of what has value. It lays down the principles of a contributory modeling method, allowing debates around the concept of development; the building of scenarios; the negotiation of their implementation; and a cross-sectoral reading of their social, ecological and economic costs. This method, called Dynamic Modeling of Cost Systems, is based on a territorial communication device which articulates political, contractual and accounting innovations using deliberative and normative digital tools. It combines different local representations of value, in order to approach wealth through an integrated analysis of micro-, meso- and macro- issues.
Download or read book Labelling the Economy written by Brice Laurent and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-02-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collected volume analyses labelling as a political and economic operation. It gathers contributions that focus on various domains, including the agri-food sector, the construction sector, eco-labelling, retail, health public policies and the energy sector, considering the use of labels for various objectives, such as providing legal and technical data on consumption products, certifying their quality, and indicating the approval of professional or political authorities. These practices are tied to both public and private interventions that make civic concerns visible and aim to govern them. The book considers ‘labelling the economy’ as an operation that introduces political questions into the economic realm, while also importing economic modes of reasoning into governance interventions. In doing so, the book considers the sociotechnical apparatus on which any label relies as a nexus where economic and political considerations are brought together.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy Modelling Studies and Conservation documents the proceedings of seminar of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe held in Washington D.C., on 24-28 March 1980. The volume begins with a Seminar Theme Paper that identifies background policy issues that lead to modeling; discusses points of view involved in energy policy modeling; defines the context of a set of energy conservation problems or questions being analyzed; and provides a forward-looking view of the subject and its problems. This is followed by 54 papers that are organized into three main topics: (1) energy models of major interest to individual countries; (2) the interaction between energy conservation measures and the economy; and (3) the international aspects of energy conservation models. The papers on Topic 1 cover forecasting methodologies, demand and conservation studies, and electricity and supply studies. The papers on Topic 2 present the experiences in countries such as Norway, UK, the USSR, and US. The papers on Topic 3 include studies on energy conservation policies in France, Germany, and Italy; and the MARKAL multi-period linear programming model for joint research and development in the field of new energy technologies of the 17 countries of the International Energy Agency.
