Governance quality, fiscal policy, and the path to a low-carbon future : perspectives from developing economies

"A successful energy transition requires considerable investments in renewable energy and low-carbon technologies. Recognizing the interplay between governance quality, fiscal policy, and the energy sector is crucial to driving these investments. From the perspective of developing economies, this book seeks to examine the role of institutional quality in the transition to a low-carbon economy. The book will also assess how the various fiscal policy tools, such as carbon taxes, subsidies for renewable energy, and green bonds, promote the energy transition. The proposed book will make a significant contribution to the literature on energy transition and sustainable development in developing economies. While there is a burgeoning literature on energy transition, the majority of it is centered on developed economies. This proposed book will fill a significant research gap in the literature by offering an in-depth examination of the challenges and opportunities that confront developing economies in transitioning to cleaner forms of energy and how good governance and sound fiscal policies can facilitate this transition. It will also offer insights and practical recommendations for policymakers and practitioners in developing economies."
