Book The Economic and Financial Impact of Governmental Deregulation on the U S  Natural Gas Industry

Download or read book The Economic and Financial Impact of Governmental Deregulation on the U S Natural Gas Industry written by Naijiang Zhou and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent changes in the structure of the U.S. natural gas industry include consolidation of operations among oil and gas producers, a revised role for major interstate natural gas pipelines from merchants to common carriers, emergence of natural gas spot and futures markets, and increased gas-to-gas competition and competition from alternative energy sources. Particularly, FERC Order 636, issued in 1992, directed a sweeping restructuring of the natural gas transmission industry. The FERC's intent was to bring about the final deregulation of the gas industry, creating a market place that would promote competition, give consumers more choices, and provide more efficient and market-sensitive gas supplies and transportation services. As a result, the way of doing business in the U.S. natural gas industry has been permanently changed. Changes in the governmental regulations have affected not only the structure of the gas industry, but also the economics of natural gas companies and end users. During the regulatory transition, major interstate natural gas pipelines incurred significant costs, and their overall financial performance was less than satisfactory. On the other hand, however, local distribution companies enjoyed growth in asset base, operating revenues, and net income. In general, industrial and electric utility customers have benefited more from the recent changes in the U.S. natural gas market than captive residential and commercial customers. Facing these unprecedented developments, producers, pipelines, and local distribution companies restructured their operations. They laid off employees, spun off assets, consolidated operations, reduced long-term debt, and adjusted capital spending in an effort to cut down costs and improve operating efficiency. The outlook of the gas industry can be characterized by sustained gas demand and tight supply, with the greatest opportunity for gas market growth coming from electric power generation and natural gas vehicles. The market share of Canadian gas in the U.S. is expected to increase. Governmental regulations will continue to play an important role in stimulating increased use of natural gas. To adapt to an increasingly competitive environment, the future strategies of the gas companies should emphasize efficiency, supply reliability, R&D, and risk management

Book The Palgrave Handbook of Natural Gas and Global Energy Transitions

Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Natural Gas and Global Energy Transitions written by Damilola S. Olawuyi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-04 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Palgrave Handbook of Natural Gas and Global Energy Transitions provides an in-depth and authoritative examination of the transformative implications of the ongoing global energy transitions for natural gas markets across the world. With case studies from Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Latin America, South America, Australia, and the Middle East, the volume introduces readers to the latest legal, policy, technological, and fiscal innovations in natural gas markets in response to ongoing global energy transitions. It outlines the risk mitigation strategies and contractual techniques — focusing on resilience planning, low-carbon business models, green procurement, climate-smart infrastructure development, accountability, gender justice, and other sustainability safeguards — that are required to maximize the full value of natural gas as a catalyst for a just and equitable energy transition and for energy security across the world. Written in an accessible style, this book outlines the guiding principles for a responsible and low-carbon approach to the design, financing, and implementation of natural gas development and commercialization. It is an indispensable text and reference work for students, scholars, practitioners, and stakeholders in natural gas, energy, infrastructure, and environmental investments and projects.

Book Pollution Under Environmental Regulation in Energy Markets

Download or read book Pollution Under Environmental Regulation in Energy Markets written by Francesco Gullì and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-14 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pollution Under Environmental Regulation in Energy Markets provides a study of environmental regulation when energy markets are imperfectly competitive. This theoretical treatment focuses on three relevant cases of energy markets. First, the residential space heating sector where hybrid regulation such as taxation and emissions trading together are possible. Second, the electricity market where transactions are organized in the form of multi-period auctions. Third, namely natural gas (input) and electricity (output) markets where there is combined imperfect competition in vertical related energy markets. The development of free or low carbon technologies supported by energy policies, aiming at increasing security of supply, is also explored whilst considering competition policies that reduce market power in energy markets thus improving market efficiency. Pollution Under Environmental Regulation in Energy Markets discusses the key issues of whether imperfect competition can lessen the ability of environmental policy to reduce pollution and/or to minimize the cost of meeting environmental targets. Policymakers, analysts and researchers gain a thorough understanding of the performance of environmental policy from Pollution Under Environmental Regulation in Energy Markets leading to better design of simulation models of performance and costs of environmental regulation.

Book China   s Gas Development Strategies

Download or read book China s Gas Development Strategies written by Shell International B.V. and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 515 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This book examines how China can increase the share of natural gas in its energy system. China’s energy strategy has global ramifications and impact, and central to this strategy is the country’s transition from coal to gas. The book presents the culmination of a two-year collaboration between the Development Research Center of the State Council (DRC) and Shell. With the Chinese government’s strategic aim to increase the share of gas in the energy mix from 5.8% in 2014 to 10% and 15% in 2020 and 2030 respectively, the book outlines how China can achieve its gas targets. Providing both quantifiable metrics and policy measures for the transition, it is a much needed addition to the literature on Chinese energy policy. The research and the resulting recommendations of this study have fed directly into the Chinese government’s 13th Five-Year Plan, and provide unique insights into the Chinese government and policy-making. Due to its global impact, the book is a valuable resource for policy makers in both China and the rest of the world.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer. This book was released on 1990-09-30 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Oata Analysis and Synthesis (CINOAS) * at Purdue. University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 33 (thesis year 1988) a total of 13,273 theses titles from 23 Canadian and 1 85 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 33 reports theses submitted in 1988, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.
