European power struggles : can EU’s decarbonisation agenda break the state-company axis in the power sector?

Sattich, Thomas; Ydersbond, Inga; Scholten, Daniel - 2015

Europe's power system is still marked by a distinct national component, and despite some regions with strongly integrated power systems, electricity supply today still has a largely national basis. Policies to decarbonise the power sector may fundamentally alter this situation, because power...

Combining climate and energy policies : synergies or antagonism? ; modeling interactions with energy efficiency instruments

Lecuyer, Oskar; Bibas, Ruben - 2011

In addition to the already present Climate and Energy package, the European Union (EU) plans to include a binding target to reduce energy consumption. We analyze the rationales the EU invokes to justify such an overlapping and develop a minimal common framework to study interactions arising from...

The clean energy R&D strategy for 2°C

Marangoni, Giacomo; Tavoni, Massimo - 2013

This paper uses an integrated assessment model to quantify the climate R&D investment strategy for a variety of scenarios fully consistent with 2°C. We estimate the total climate R&D investment needs in approximately 1 USD Trillion cumulatively in the period 2010-2030, and 1.6 USD Trillions in...

The evolution of renewable energy policy in OECD countries : aggregate indicators and determinants

Nicolli, Francesco; Vona, Francesco - 2012

This paper proposes different methods to aggregate heterogeneous policies for renewable energy. We compare time-varying indicators built using principal component analysis with average-based indicators. The main goal of the paper is to account for the evolution of both types of policy indicators...

Is energy planning consistent with climate goals? : assessing future emissions from power plants in Latin America and the Caribbean

Marinkovic, Catalina; Vogt-Schilb, Adrien - 2023

At least ten Latin American and Caribbean countries have pledged to achieve carbon neutrality. Has electricity planning in the region evolved towards reaching these goals? We compare power generation capacity in 2023 to announced plans in 2019. We then estimate committed emissions from existing...

Recessions, the energy mix and environmental policy

Deb, Pragyan; Furceri, Davide; Ostry, Jonathan David; … - 2023

How do severe recessions, such as those brought about by the Global Financial Crisis or the COVID-19 pandemic, affect the composition of energy generation between green and dirty sources? Does creative destruction during recessions result in a sustained greening of the energy mix? The empirical...
