Book U S  Japanese Energy Relations

Download or read book U S Japanese Energy Relations written by Charles Ebinger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-28 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1984, this collection of original papers highlights the major problems and challenges that lie ahead in U.S.-Japanese energy relations. Energy cooperation, both through joint projects and bilateral planning, has become an important barometer of the U.S. diplomatic relationship with Japan, as evidenced by the high-level U.S.-Japan Energy Working Group set up in January 1984 following Prime Minister Nakasone's visit to Washington. Contributions to this book detail the problems posed by energy security differences and uncertain oil markets; U.S. crude oil exports to Japan; and nuclear, coal solar-energy; and they consider the prospects for conflict over investment in Siberia and Asia

Book The Power of Renewables

  • Author : Chinese Academy of Engineering
  • Publisher : National Academies Press
  • Release : 2011-01-29
  • ISBN : 0309160006
  • Pages : 256 pages

Download or read book The Power of Renewables written by Chinese Academy of Engineering and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-01-29 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States and China are the world's top two energy consumers and, as of 2010, the two largest economies. Consequently, they have a decisive role to play in the world's clean energy future. Both countries are also motivated by related goals, namely diversified energy portfolios, job creation, energy security, and pollution reduction, making renewable energy development an important strategy with wide-ranging implications. Given the size of their energy markets, any substantial progress the two countries make in advancing use of renewable energy will provide global benefits, in terms of enhanced technological understanding, reduced costs through expanded deployment, and reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions relative to conventional generation from fossil fuels. Within this context, the U.S. National Academies, in collaboration with the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and Chinese Academy of Engineering (CAE), reviewed renewable energy development and deployment in the two countries, to highlight prospects for collaboration across the research to deployment chain and to suggest strategies which would promote more rapid and economical attainment of renewable energy goals. Main findings and concerning renewable resource assessments, technology development, environmental impacts, market infrastructure, among others, are presented. Specific recommendations have been limited to those judged to be most likely to accelerate the pace of deployment, increase cost-competitiveness, or shape the future market for renewable energy. The recommendations presented here are also pragmatic and achievable.

Book U s  china Clean Energy Cooperation

Download or read book U s china Clean Energy Cooperation written by U S -China Economic and Security Review and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-08-03 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After decades of rapid economic growth and heavy industrialization, China is currently one of the world's top energy consumers and the largest emitter of greenhouse gases. As a result, Chinese leaders have recently enacted a number of plans and directives with a specific focus on developing a cleaner energy policy and a lower carbon economy. In the 12th Five Year Plan, the Chinese government set ambitious goals in this regard, including increasing the use of clean and renewable energy sources, such as natural gas, wind, and solar. However, as China builds up its own clean energy industry, it has also adopted some policies that may disadvantage U.S. energy companies seeking to operate and sell their products and services inside of China. Indeed, China's "indigenous innovation" policy may preclude certain foreign manufacturing companies from qualifying for government-funded projects. Despite these differences, however, bilateral cooperation on clean energy is an area that both countries have indeed embraced. China and the U.S. account for nearly 60 percent of all the coal burned in the entire world. By working together and making joint budgetary commitments, the U.S. and China can accelerate advanced clean coal technology and enhanced environmental protection and help the economy in the meantime.

Book excerpt: Further integration of energy markets and policies across the three North American countries can only contribute to economic development and may well improve its sustainability. This report reviews a number of key policy areas, including NAFTA, related to oil and gas development in and across the three major North American countries and explores opportunities for enhanced trilateral and bilateral cooperation and policy alignment. It contains descriptions of existing policies, legislation, and regulations on transportation, climate change, royalties and fiscal structures, decommissioning and abandonment, water, and environmental safety, as well as more detailed discussions of harmonization opportunities in each of those areas. The report also highlights several fundamental differences in the broader regulatory frameworks across the three countries, as these have an impact on efforts to harmonize.

Book excerpt: On March 23, 2005, Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin, Mexican President Vicente Fox, and U.S. President George W. Bush announced the Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP or the Partnership) in Waco, Texas. In order to achieve the SPP's broader commitment of ensuring security and enhancing development in North America, the SPP included six Security Working Groups and 10 Prosperity Working Groups, designed to promote greater cooperation and information sharing in various areas, including a prosperity working group focused on energy. In energy, it was agreed by all three countries that the cooperative efforts under the SPP would continue to occur under the ongoing North American Energy Working Group (NAEWG), with new initiatives to be added as part of the recently established Partnership.

Book A Failure to Cooperate

Download or read book A Failure to Cooperate written by Timothy Dutton and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the push from the private sector, as well as the resource complementarities among the three countries of North America, it is somewhat surprising that North America has not developed an integrated energy strategy based on traditional, non-renewable energy (2000-2016). How should we understand this puzzle? The answer lies in domestic forces and the structure of national preferences. Using liberal international relations theory, this thesis presents a two-step argument: first, the election of pro-green political parties has in each country led to a convergence of preferences for climate action. Essentially, as each one came to power, the win-set for a regional strategy on fossil fuel production, energy exports, and energy infrastructure shrunk, while the win-set for clean energy and climate change mitigation increased. Second, key interest groups have acquired sufficient voice and power in each country to persuade the three North American governments that developing a regional strategy based on fossil fuels would undermine their interests. Through behind the door lobbying and public mobilization, the groups have been able to shift the conversation surrounding 'regional energy cooperation' to 'regional clean energy and climate change cooperation.' This thesis uses the method of process tracing to analyze the related events from 2000-2016 and test why certain governments acted the way they did in regards to energy cooperation.

Book North American Energy Relationships

Download or read book North American Energy Relationships written by Doug Russell and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Energy and climate policy are inextricably linked, as rational policies and programs aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions require accounting for how energy is produced, consumed and traded. Doing otherwise will result in unintended consequences in the economy and will introduce trade distortions. This paper explores the energy relationships in North America and the implications for action on clean energy and climate change. It is intended to provide a picture of how the production and use of energy in North America will impact the design of policy responses to climate change and the development of clean energy technologies. In so doing, the paper provides context for accompanying papers on carbon capture and storage (CCS) and linking of cap-and-trade systems in North America developed under the IISD-Pembina project, Clean Energy and Climate Action: A North American Collaboration.

Book China s Energy Revolution in the Context of the Global Energy Transition

Download or read book China s Energy Revolution in the Context of the Global Energy Transition written by Shell International B.V. and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-29 with total page 734 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book is an encyclopaedic analysis of the current and future energy system of the world’s most populous country and second biggest economy. What happens in China impacts the planet. In the past 40 years China has achieved one of the most remarkable economic growth rates in history. Its GDP has risen by a factor of 65, enabling 850,000 people to rise out of poverty. Growth on this scale comes with consequences. China is the world’s biggest consumer of primary energy and the world’s biggest emitter of CO2 emissions. Creating a prosperous and harmonious society that delivers economic growth and a high quality of life for all will require radical change in the energy sector, and a rewiring of the economy more widely. In China’s Energy Revolution in the Context of the Global Energy Transition, a team of researchers from the Development Research Center of the State Council of China and Shell International examine how China can revolutionise its supply and use of energy. They examine the entire energy system: coal, oil, gas, nuclear, renewables and new energies in production, conversion, distribution and consumption. They compare China with case studies and lessons learned in other countries. They ask which technology, policy and market mechanisms are required to support the change and they explore how international cooperation can smooth the way to an energy revolution in China and across the world. And, they create and compare scenarios on possible pathways to a future energy system that is low-carbon, affordable, secure and reliable.
