Описание: Oil and Nation places petroleum at the center of Bolivia's contentious twentieth-century history. Bolivia's oil, Cote argues, instigated the largest war in Latin America in the 1900s, provoked the first nationalization of a major foreign company by a Latin American state, and shaped both the course and the consequences of Bolivia's transformative National Revolution of 1952. Oil and natural gas continue to steer the country under the government of Evo Morales, who renationalized hydrocarbons in 2006 and has used revenues from the sector to reduce poverty and increase infrastructure development in South America's poorest country.The book advances chronologically from Bolivia's earliest petroleum pioneers in the nineteenth century until the present, inserting oil into historical debates about Bolivian ethnic, racial, and environmental issues, and within development strategies by different administrations. While Bolivia is best known for its tin mining, Oil and Nation makes the case that nationalist reformers viewed hydrocarbons and the state oil company as a way to modernize the country away from the tin monoculture and its powerful backers and toward an oil-powered future.

Описание: This book takes a fresh look at key terms and concepts around which energy research and policy are organised. Drawing on recent research in energy and transport studies, and combining this with concepts from sociology, economics, social theory and technology studies, the chapters review and challenge different aspects of received wisdom.

Автор: Vagliasindi Название: Revisiting Public-Private Partnerships In The Power Sector ISBN: 0821397621 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780821397626 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 3465.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: Given the chronic power shortages faced by numerous developing countries, and the need everywhere to keep pace with demand, understanding the drivers of public private partnerships (PPPs) in energy is critical. While many private electricity projects have been delayed and financing costs have increased, the impact of the global financial crisis was less severe than that of previous crises that originated in developing countries. This resilience stems from developing countries - need to expand generation capacity, electricity sector reforms and better regulatory frameworks, and short-term solutions (such as rental power plants). <br><br>The study reports the evidence from statistical analysis and a sample of case studies selected based. It proposes a novel analytical approach to model PPPs, using a two-stage procedure based on Heckman’s sample selection distinguishing between those factors that determine whether private investment in energy takes place, and those that influence the volume of investment. <br><br>The results of the analysis provide the following conclusions: <ul><li> Both general governance and regulatory instrument primarily affect investors’ decisions to enter the various power sector markets, not the subsequent level of investment - indicating that investors seem to be adequately protected against risks. </li><li>Support mechanisms, like feed-in tariffs, are crucial for attracting investors in renewable generation, but they do not succeed in displacing fossil fuel investment and they could play a bigger role in affecting the level of investment in renewables. </li><li> There is a significant trade-off between effectiveness and efficiency of alternative instruments for deploying renewables. Feed-in tariffs tended to be quite effective but to be set on the high side, reducing incentives to cut costs and posing significant strains on already stripped national budgets. Competitive auctions, on the other hand have tended to be efficient but initially low and not always the most effective instrument.</li><li> Countries can scale up renewables following different paths. For Brazil, the move from feed-in tariffs to auctions enabled it to both reduce costs and deploy additional capacity. Peru followed in Brazil’s path, opting for auctions instead of introducing feed-in tariffs. On the other hand, China’s move from competitive tenders to feed-in tariffs allowed for discovery effects to determine the right level of prices to attract private investment in renewables.
Описание: It argues that technological energy saving plays a key role in reducing the energy intensity and increasing the energy efficiency of the economy, and substantiates the need for institutional support - including legal support for the participation of the Russian Federation - in various forms of international cooperation.
Описание: This guidance note examines the effects of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) on the energy sector in Asia and the Pacific and outlines key actions that stakeholders can take during the response and the recovery phases.
While COVID-19 has resulted in severe global health and economic crises, it also presents an opportunity for a green, sustainable, and resilient recovery enabled by sustainable energy. The guidance note looks into how the energy sector is responding across the region and what more can be done. It also highlights how ADB's support to the energy sector is helping its developing member countries recover from the pandemic and achieve sustainable development.
Описание: This book aims to assess multidimensional aspects of energy security in the electricity sector. There are few academic literature that assess regulation and governance, availability, technology development and efficiency, environmental sustainability, and affordability dimension comprehensively. This book demonstrates how these dimensions are interconnected. The publication of this book comes at a timely moment when the Indonesian government needs to provide electricity access to more than 60 million people, to speed up electrification ratio outside Java, to reduce electricity subsidy, and to promote green power system. Moving from “darkness to light”, Indonesia needs to strengthen regulation and governance as a basis to elevate other dimensions to move forward.
Описание: Electricity shortages are among the biggest barriers to South Asia's development. Did you know that 30 percent of households in South Asia are not connected to the power grid? Even households and firms that are connected often experience long hours of blackouts. How much do power sector distortions cost South Asian economies? Previous research considers a narrow definition of the power sector which includes generation, transmission, and distribution, but often does not account for the upstream distortions in coal and gas production, downstream distortions from the lack of electricity access, or the pollution generated by fossil-fuel plants. They also address only the fiscal costs of distortions though many distortions do not have a direct fiscal cost. This study offers a comprehensive assessment of the economic cost of energy sector distortions in Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan. It uses microeconomic data from utilities, households, and firms to estimate key parameters for each country. It then uses these parameters to generate precise estimates of the cost of regulatory, institutional, and social and environmental distortions. The study finds that some of the most costly distortions are upstream and downstream. Urgent power sector reforms should be a top priority because they can rapidly and effectively promote economic growth. Smart reforms would reduce the need for massive investments in generation because existing capacity is currently poorly utilized. The report finds that price distortions are often not the most important source of economic cost. Institutional reforms would have a greater and more sustainable effect than energy pricing liberalization alone. Removing price distortions and addressing environmental costs could, however, lead to a sharp increase in electricity prices. Therefore, improving efficiency and providing targeted social assistance to poor and vulnerable households should be prioritized. In the absence of privatization, incentive regulation is likely to be more effective than corporatization to improve efficiency.
Описание: In closing, the book provides a detailed treatment of two essential research problems: 1) long-term forecasting for regional energy markets, and 2) the quantitative assessment of a) the barriers that are likely to hinder energy sector development and b) strategic-level energy security threats.
