This timely Research Handbook explores the state of the art in energy management amidst a period of fundamental change in the field, due to the ongoing sustainable energy transition, increasing digitalization and the rising importance of resilience. It examines methodological developments and applications, addressing these growing challenges along the entire value chain and across different energy sectors.
Expert authors discuss four societal mega trends: decarbonization, decentralization, digitalization and democratization, and their impact on energy management, illustrating recent developments which support the sector. Combining academic and applied approaches, they examine energy management issues within and across different spheres, such as residential and industrial energy management and the cross-sectoral example of power-to-gas. This Research Handbook provides a novel conceptual structure for the regulatory and ethical aspects of modern energy management, forming a framework for realizing the extent of decarbonization potentials in different energy end-use sectors.
Students and scholars of energy economics and environmental governance, regulation and management will greatly benefit from this Research Handbook. It is also a crucial resource for academics who are studying environmental politics and policy, geopolitics and political geography, as well as practitioners working in modern energy management.
Arvustused
This collection of thoughtful chapters provides readers with an up-to-date review of recent developments and expert thinking about the process of planning, controlling and monitoring efficient and cost effective energy systems. While the collection is useful for practitioners, the primary focus is on research in a field undergoing rapid decarbonization, decentralization, digitalization and democratization. A wide range of analytical methods and strategies are addressed in the context of regulation, governance policy, and the ethical dimensions of developing and using energy technologies across several end use sectors, including industry, buildings, and transportation. -- M.
