Phasing out nuclear power in Europe
Aune, Finn Roar; Golombek, Rolf; Hallre, Hilde - 2015
We explore the impact of an EU-wide nuclear phase-out by 2030 provided the EU energy and climate policy for 2030 is implemented. Using a numerical simulation model of the European energy industry (LIBEMOD), we find that a complete nuclear phase-out in Europe by 2030 has a moderate impact on...

The long-run consequences of Chernobyl : evidence on subjective well-being, mental health and welfare
Danzer, Alexander M.; Danzer, Natalia - 2014
This paper assesses the long-run toll taken by a large-scale technological disaster on welfare, well-being and mental health. We estimate the causal effect of the 1986 Chernobyl catastrophe after 20 years by linking geographic variation in radioactive fallout to respondents of a nationally...

A spatial approach to energy economics : theory, measurement and empirics
Moreno Cruz, Juan; Taylor, Michael Scott - 2014
This paper sets out a simple spatial model of energy exploitation to ask how the location and productivity of energy resources may affect the distribution of economic activity around the globe. We combine elements from resource and energy economics into one framework linking the spatial...

Synergistic value in vertically integrated power-to-gas energy systems
Glenk, Gunther; Reichelstein, Stefan - 2019
This paper examines the value that can potentially be created by a vertically integrating energy system. Integration entails operational gains that must be traded off against the requisite cost of capacity investments. In the context of our model, the operational gains are subject to inherent...

The energy community and the grid
Gautier, Axel; Jacqmin, Julien; Poudou, Jean-Christophe - 2023
Renewable energy communities involve various agents who decide to jointly invest in renewable production units and storage. This paper examines how these communities interact with the energy system and can decrease its overall cost. First, we show that a renewable energy community can contribute...

Watts and bots : the energy implications of AI adoption
Harding, Anthony R.; Moreno Cruz, Juan - 2024
With the rapid expansion of Artificial Intelligence, there are expectations for a proportional expansion of economic activity due to increased productivity, and with it energy consumption and its associated environmental consequences like carbon dioxide emissions. Here, we combine data on...
