“…Thus the more expensive source of energy will be scratched from the list as it consequences to bulged production cost, lower productivity, and even reduction on local employment (Bohi & Toman, 1996). Specifically for Indonesia, the failure to control national energy consumption is likewise related to government lack of capacity to enforce energy conservation and efficiency; deficient political will to conduct further research and development on non-fossil energy; along with the futile energy conservation law which is factually difficult to adopt -causing the law to be neglected and violated by many (Hadiwinata, 2011).…”

“…At that time, the focus was primarily on the short-term consequences of high prices and the macroeconomic impacts with a corresponding emphasis on measures related to strategic stockpiling and macroeconomic policy (Bohi and Toman 1996). The emphasis has now shifted to long-term implications and broader areas of concern including supply disruptions unrelated to oil markets, in particular in response to power system reliability problems caused by liberalisation policies (Blyth and Lefevre 2004).…”

Climate Policy

This paper assesses a wide range of alternative proposals for post-2012 international climate policy regimes. We believe that these proposals will serve as a basis for debates about how to configure post-2012 climate policy. The paper characterises and assesses the policy proposals along the lines of five key policy dilemmas. We argue that 1) many proposals have ideas on how to reduce emissions, but fewer have a solution on how to stimulate technical innovation; 2) many proposals formulate climate policy in isolation, while there are fewer proposals that try to mainstream climate policies in other policy areas; 3) many proposals advocate market-based solutions, while fewer realise that there are certain drawbacks to this solution especially at the international level; 4) most proposals have a preference for a UN-based regime, while a more fragmented regime, based on regional and sectoral arrangements may be emerging; and 5) most proposals have ideas about mitigation, but not many have creative ideas on how to integrate mitigation with adaptation.

“…In this sense, energy sustainability is of vital significance in shaping a region's destiny. Energy sustainability can be described on different scales, and different regions have specific particularities based on energy use over time and different energy sources [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. Based on previous studies, Lynne Chester developed the concept of "energy sustainability" [1].…”

“…Eco-environmental sustainability involves sustainable development and represents the higher goal of energy sustainability [4]. Douglas R. Bohi et al proposed that energy sustainability can be improved by introducing energy consumption reduction policies [5]. Benjamin K. Sovacool et al conducted an analysis that concluded that energy sustainability consists of usability, affordability, efficiency, and environmental management [6].…”

Energy Sustainability Evaluation Model Based on the Matter-Element Extension Method: A Case Study of Shandong Province, China

Sustainability

Abstract:Energy sustainability is of vital importance to regional sustainability, because energy sustainability is closely related to both regional economic growth and social stability. The existing energy sustainability evaluation methods lack a unified system to determine the relevant influencing factors, are relatively weak in quantitative analysis, and do not fully describe the 'paradoxical' characteristics of energy sustainability. To solve those problems and to reasonably and objectively evaluate energy sustainability, we propose an energy sustainability evaluation model based on the matter-element extension method. We first select energy sustainability evaluation indexes based on previous research and experience. Then, a variation coefficient method is used to determine the weights of these indexes. Finally, the study establishes the classical domain, joint domain, and the matter-element relationship to evaluate energy sustainability through matter-element extension. Data from Shandong Province is used as a case study to evaluate the region's energy sustainability. The case study shows that the proposed energy sustainability evaluation model, based on the matter-element extension method, can effectively evaluate regional energy sustainability.
