Download or read book The Economic and Social Regulation of Public Utilities written by Judith Clifton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Utilities have long been essential for societies, supplying basic services for nations, organizations and households alike. The proper functioning and regulation of utilities is therefore critical for the economy, society and security. History provides an invaluable insight into important issues of the economic and social regulation of utilities and offers guidance for future debates. However, the history of utility regulation – which speaks of changing, diverse and complex experiences around the world – was sidelined or marginalised when economists and policy-makers enthusiastically embraced the question of how to reform the utilities from the 1970s. This book examines in depth the complex regulation and deregulation of energy, communications, transportation and water utilities across Western Europe, the United States, Australia, Brazil, China and India. In each case, attention is drawn to the changing roles of the state, the market and firms in the regulation, organization and delivery of utility services. This book was originally published as a special issue of Business History.

Download or read book Energy Law Basics written by K. K. DuVivier and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor DuVivier reviewed dozens of syllabi for energy law courses and brought that review, as well as her more than 25 years of law teaching, to bear when creating this Energy Law Basics (ELB) book. Energy Law is not one body of law, and an energy practice may involve a wide variety of skills. Consequently, no two energy law courses cover the same body of material. In addition, energy law changes quickly, and course materials must be updated constantly for accuracy. ELB was designed with these drivers in mind. First, it is professor-friendly and allows maximum flexibility. Timelines and thumbnail chapters give students a reliable summary of the relevant technology and history of key energy topics. The 19 chapters in Sections I-III provide enough material for professors to assign approximately one per week over a 15-week semester if they choose to adopt ELB as their only textbook. Alternatively, ELB can be adopted to provide a framework for a course, which the professor then supplements with (1) some or all of the nine skills exercises in part IV of the book; (2) more in-depth readings or books on particular topics; (3) student reports and discussions on current hot topics or updates about energy news; or (4) student seminar paper presentations. Alternatively, because ELB chapters are easy to mix and match and can stand on their own, the book can be ideal for short courses or as a supplement to other textbooks. Recognizing the fast-changing nature of energy law, each thumbnail chapter contains "Sources & Resources" citations to materials related to the chapter and also a Lexis-Advance update link to help find more recent updated legal areas of discussion. DuVivier brings her teaching and her technical expertise as a geologist to this book, but no one and no book can cover everything. Professor DuVivier asked experts in particular topics to review and provide substantive input on topics, but the sole-author mechanism allows ELB to avoid inconsistencies and repetition sometimes seen in multi-authored texts. DuVivier's teaching has focused on simulations and practical applications, and the ABA now requires 6 credits of experiential education. The Fundamental Skills exercises in part IV of ELB can help meet the ABA requirements by allowing students hands-on opportunities to master the energy law subject matter while also honing skills that are transferable to any law practice.

Download or read book The Grid written by Julie A Cohn and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the grid, the world's largest interconnected power machine that is North America's electricity infrastructure. The North American power grid has been called the world's largest machine. The grid connects nearly every living soul on the continent; Americans rely utterly on the miracle of electrification. In this book, Julie Cohn tells the history of the grid, from early linkages in the 1890s through the grid's maturity as a networked infrastructure in the 1980s. She focuses on the strategies and technologies used to control power on the grid—in fact made up of four major networks of interconnected power systems—paying particular attention to the work of engineers and system operators who handled the everyday operations. To do so, she consulted sources that range from the pages of historical trade journals to corporate archives to the papers of her father, Nathan Cohn, who worked in the industry from 1927 to 1989—roughly the period of key power control innovations across North America. Cohn investigates major challenges and major breakthroughs but also the hidden aspects of our electricity infrastructure, both technical and human. She describes the origins of the grid and the growth of interconnection; emerging control issues, including difficulties in matching generation and demand on linked systems; collaboration and competition against the backdrop of economic depression and government infrastructure investment; the effects of World War II on electrification; postwar plans for a coast-to-coast grid; the northeast blackout of 1965 and the East-West closure of 1967; and renewed efforts at achieving stability and reliability after those two events.

Download or read book The Geopolitics of the Global Energy Transition written by Manfred Hafner and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world is currently undergoing an historic energy transition, driven by increasingly stringent decarbonisation policies and rapid advances in low-carbon technologies. The large-scale shift to low-carbon energy is disrupting the global energy system, impacting whole economies, and changing the political dynamics within and between countries. This open access book, written by leading energy scholars, examines the economic and geopolitical implications of the global energy transition, from both regional and thematic perspectives. The first part of the book addresses the geopolitical implications in the world’s main energy-producing and energy-consuming regions, while the second presents in-depth case studies on selected issues, ranging from the geopolitics of renewable energy, to the mineral foundations of the global energy transformation, to governance issues in connection with the changing global energy order. Given its scope, the book will appeal to researchers in energy, climate change and international relations, as well as to professionals working in the energy industry.
