Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Asia and the Pacific region has become a global economic powerhouse. The region's rapid and sustained economic growth, increasing population, expanding industrialisation and rapid urbanization are driving rapid growth in energy demand, which. Ensuring that supplies of energy are adequate to meet the growth in demand in ways that are socially, economically and environmentally responsible creates a new set of challenges for policymakers.The transition to 2030 energy pathway, which is aimed at addressing those challenges, has four coherent and interlinked objectives - increased energy supply to meet the growing demand, improved energy security, meeting the SDG7 targets and achieving NDCs. Addressing the complex and challenging task requires policymakers to develop a clear, sustainable and achievable pathway that would enable the countries, as well as the region as a whole, to achieve the 2030 goals and targets This report undertakes an in-depth analysis to first determine the level of achievement is possible under the current policy regime by developing a baseline. It then identifies the gap between the baseline and the 2030 targets to inform policymakers the additional efforts and resources that would be needed to adequately achieve SDG7 targets as well as the NDCs mitigation targets for the energy sector. Finally, different transition pathways have been developed and their socio-economic and environmental facets have been examined to assist policymakers to make an informed decision. The report also identifies the enabling policy, technology and market environment that would accelerate the achievement of the 2030 targets.

Download or read book A Decentralized Pathway for Energy Security and Energy Transition in Asia and the Pacific Region written by Pooja Sharma and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the onset of Climate Change as a biggest Challenge in today's era, energy security and the consequent energy transition has been addressed as issue of concern by all the countries across globe. In the context of conceptualisation of energy security in a 4 A framework defined in terms of accessibility, affordability, availability and acceptability, the paper finds all its remedies and solutions in prescribing a decentralized pathway for the selected region of Asia and the Pacific. Kumarappa's notion of 'economy of permanence' which recommends decentralization as a key alternative for improving the situation of people is reinforced by the paper in the context of ensuring energy security in the current scenario of energy transition. The paper concludes that by empowering local communities, strengthening their indigenous clean energy technologies would solve the impediments of political economy involved in the process of achieving energy accessibility. This would further contribute immensely in making each local community or region energy secure thus uplifting the standard of living and improving the quality of life. In this manner paper argues that a decentralized approach in adopting renewable energy technologies would safeguard the entire nation from becoming technologically dependent on Western economies. Finally, the paper strongly recommends Kumarappa's notion of non-violent economy and Gandhian ideas as a sustainable solution or a benchmark in the current times when the entire economy is undergoing a transformation. This can be achieved by adopting bottom up approach for energy transition, ensuring energy security proposes a bottom up approach, along with the top -- down approach. This entails utilizing human resource, encouraging skill enhancement and promoting research and development perfectly aligned in the direction to cater to the needs of indigenous communities or society.

Download or read book Planning and Operation Strategies for Enhancing Power System Flexibility in Low Carbon Energy Transition written by Mingfei Ban and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-02-21 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global energy system is undergoing a profound transformation from a system based mainly on fossil fuels to a low-carbon one based on variable renewable energy (VRE), such as wind power and solar power, to achieve the 2050 Paris Agreement. By 2050, solar and wind power, with more than 14,500 GW installed capacity, would account for three-fifths of global electricity generation. This transformation comes with significant challenges since high VRE shares will greatly increase system flexibility requirements for balancing supply and demand. Accordingly, all sectors of the power system need to unlock further requisite flexibility through technology, business, and policy innovations, including power supply, transmission, distribution, storage, and demand.
Download or read book 100 Renewable Energy Transition written by Claudia Kemfert and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-01-23 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy markets are already undergoing considerable transitions to accommodate new (renewable) energy forms, new (decentral) energy players, and new system requirements, e.g. flexibility and resilience. Traditional energy markets for fossil fuels are therefore under pressure, while not-yet-mature (renewable) energy markets are emerging. As a consequence, investments in large-scale and capital intensive (traditional) energy production projects are surrounded by high uncertainty, and are difficult to hedge by private entities. Traditional energy production companies are transforming into energy service suppliers and companies aggregating numerous potential market players are emerging, while regulation and system management are playing an increasing role. To address these increasing uncertainties and complexities, economic analysis, forecasting, modeling and investment assessment require fresh approaches and views. Novel research is thus required to simulate multiple actor interplays and idiosyncratic behavior. The required approaches cannot deal only with energy supply, but need to include active demand and cover systemic aspects. Energy market transitions challenge policy-making. Market coordination failure, the removal of barriers hindering restructuring and the combination of market signals with command-and-control policy measures are some of the new aims of policies. The aim of this Special Issue is to collect research papers that address the above issues using novel methods from any adequate perspective, including economic analysis, modeling of systems, behavioral forecasting, and policy assessment. The issue will include, but is not be limited to: Local control schemes and algorithms for distributed generation systems Centralized and decentralized sustainable energy management strategies Communication architectures, protocols and properties of practical applications Topologies of distributed generation systems improving flexibility, efficiency and power quality Practical issues in the control design and implementation of distributed generation systems Energy transition studies for optimized pathway options aiming for high levels of sustainability
