Solar power, electricity reform, market niches for renewable energy and Nordic-Russian partnership are all examined in detail. Providing crucial insights for academics, policy-makers and business actors seeking to cooperate with Russian partners, this groundbreaking book raises the vitally important question of how key countries such as Russia will approach global climate politics and their own energy supply in the post-Kyoto world.

Book Energy Security and Cooperation in Eurasia

Download or read book Energy Security and Cooperation in Eurasia written by Ekaterina Svyatets and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are bilateral relations, especially in the area of energy security, so different in the cases of U.S.-Russia, U.S.-Azerbaijan, and Russia-Germany energy deals? Why do some states find common ground despite differences, while others, with all the seemingly favourable conditions, are sinking into animosity? Energy Security and Cooperation in Eurasia explores varying outcomes of energy cooperation, defined as diplomatic relations, bilateral trade, and investment in oil and natural gas. The book looks at economic potential, geopolitical rivalry, and domestic interest groups in the cases of U.S.-Russia, U.S.-Azerbaijan, and Russia-Germany energy ties. It looks at major projects in each case (Sakhalin and Arctic oil and gas production, Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan and Nord Stream pipelines) and activities of international oil companies. The book also provides a detailed analysis of the situation in Ukraine since 2014 and Russia’s annexation of Crimea, and their effect on European energy security. This book utilizes an innovative approach of exploring the dyads of states (bilateral relations) along the economic, geopolitical, and domestic lobbying dimensions. This book is a valuable resource for graduate and undergraduate students, academics and researchers in the areas of Security, Political Economy, Comparative Politics, post-Soviet studies, as well as for general public.

Book From Leader to Laggard

Download or read book From Leader to Laggard written by Jared James Dye and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The installed capacity of renewable energy is increasing in the developed and developing worlds alike. Yet, the share of renewable energy (excluding large hydroelectric power stations) remains below one percent of the energy mix in Russia. Over the past century, (Soviet) Russia has been among the global leaders in developing and implementing hydroelectric, nuclear, and fossil fuel technology. Why has Russia been on the cutting edge of so many energy sources, both traditional and alternative, yet lags so far behind its peers in renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and geothermal energy? Through a case study analysis of wind energy, this thesis argues that renewable energy in Russia has not taken off relative to the country’s peers due to a lack of strategic necessity and subsequent political will from the Russian elite. The economic, political, and cultural factors that drove the development of hydropower, nuclear energy, oil, and natural gas are absent for renewable energy. That being said, while large-scale, commercial wind projects have been generally absent, small-scale turbine installations in communities isolated from the unified power grid have begun to emerge with success. This thesis is divided into two major sections. The first section analyzes how Russia got to the energy mix it has today by examining the literature on the origins and development of coal, hydropower, oil, natural gas, and nuclear energy for electricity production since the turn of the twentieth century. Following the history of these energy sources, this research examines the opinions from political and business elites in Russia on the topic of renewable energy and analyzes the renewable energy support scheme introduced in 2013. The second section examines the development of renewable energy in Russia using wind energy as a case study. Specifically, the analysis focuses on planned and implemented wind power installations in three Russian federal districts: the Russian Far East, Northwest, and South. This thesis offers a unique contribution to the literature by synthesizing information on multiple wind projects across the country and identifying common strategic, political, and economic themes among them.

Book Renewable Energy Prospects for the Russian Federation  REMap 2030

Download or read book Renewable Energy Prospects for the Russian Federation REMap 2030 written by International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) and published by . This book was released on 2017-04 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Russian Federation has set out to increase and diversify its use of renewables, particularly for power generation. Under current plans and policies, renewables would reach nearly 5% of total final energy consumption by 2030. Accelerated deployment, however, could boost Russia's renewable energy share to more than 11% in the same timeframe, according to this REmap working paper from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA)Achieving this potential calls for cumulative investments of USD 300 billion in renewable energy up to 2030, or on average USD 15 billion per year between 2010 and 2030. When externalities related to human health and climate change are taken into account, these investments in renewables could ultimately save up to USD 11 billion per year.Yet certain areas require further attention. These include long-term planning, integration of renewables with existing plans, opening the way for solar PV and wind development, and ensuring reliable and affordable bioenergy supplies.Hydropower - representing about a fifth of Russian power generation capacity - is currently the most prominent renewable source, along with bioenergy for heating in buildings and industry. By end of 2015, total installed renewable power generation capacity reached 53.5 gigawatts (GW) of which 51.5 GW came from hydropower., and the remainder 2 GW from bioenergy, wind, solar PV and geothermal.The country analysis forms part of REmap, IRENA's global roadmap to double renewables in the global energy mix.

Book Off Grid Renewable Energy in Remote Arctic Areas

Download or read book Off Grid Renewable Energy in Remote Arctic Areas written by Anatole Boute and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electricity supply in remote areas of the Russian territory is heavily dependent on diesel sources. Diesel generation imposes an important economic and social burden on the local population, besides the environmental impact of greenhouse gas emissions, black carbon and oil spills. Switching to renewable energy could reduce the current economic, social and environmental cost of electricity supply in Russia's remote areas. The objective of this paper is to review Russia's off-grid renewable energy policy by focusing on the promotion of wind- and solar-diesel hybrid energy in the Russian Arctic. Taking a mainly regulatory perspective, this paper identifies existing barriers to the development of hybrid renewable-diesel investments. Building further on the international experience with the promotion of renewable energy in Arctic climates (e.g., in Alaska and Canada), this paper tests the feasibility of alternative 'best practice' mechanisms to support off-grid renewable energy in Russia.
