Sustainable Energy Transitions: Overcoming Negative Externalities

Abstract: Nowadays the world energy system faces numerous transitions and shifts of the existing socio-technical regimes towards higher sustainability. Along with it, the sustainable transitions are often being postponed, slowed down or rejected to avoid negative externalities that could threaten the system stability. In this study, we aim to reach the deeper understanding of the externalities of energy transitions and the vulnerability of energy systems under the influence of negative externalities caused by sustainabl… Show more

“…An externality is considered negative if the resulting impact can harm other parties who do not receive compensation for the activity (Barnet et al, 2021). Several alternatives can be done to overcome the impact of negative externalities, which include imposing taxes per unit of production, providing subsidies, granting pollution rights through auctions, and implementing regulations (Pysmenna & Trypolska, 2020).…”

“…Environmental cost refers to the cost incurred by society because of environmental damage caused by economic activities. It is a measure of the negative externalities that are not reflected in the market price of goods or services and includes the costs of pollution, resource depletion, and other environmental impacts [34]. Environmental costs are those incurred by companies, directly or through third parties, to prevent, reduce or repair damage to the environment arising from their operating activities.…”

“…The development of decentralized generation and the significant growth in prosumers' share in the energy mix can have both positive and negative external effects (externalities). As studied in [18], sustainable transitions are slowed down, suspended, and even postponed because of the need to avoid negative externalities that threaten the stability of the system. In contrast, positive externalities can accelerate energy transitions and foster sustainable economies [19,64].…”
