Información de la editorial

Energy is a sector where there has always been a serious modellingtradition, but with the worldwide trend away from planned economiesto new market structures, the risk, uncertainties and competitiveaspects which need to be incorporated pose new challenges toanalyse strategic as well as economic behaviour. Systems Modellingfor Energy Policy addresses the strong and apparentlycountervailing themes dominating energy policy in the currentdecade:
* concerns about global warming have stimulated an intense andmethodologically diverse level of analytical activity aimedultimately at greater international co-ordination in policy andplanning
* simultaneously we are witnessing a worldwide trend away fromplanned national energy policies to new market structures
To accommodate these shifts in focus, more comprehensive analyticalprocedures are needed to address technical challenges in handlinglarge models whilst smaller, policy-specific behavioural models maygive greater insight to the strategic challenges involved inmaintaining focus on key industry restructuring issues for whichpast data is not available. This volume provides a comprehensiveand up-to-date reference to the range of issues and modellingalternatives that a systems perspective gives to the analysis ofenergy policy. Practitioners, analysts and researchers will findnew studies and comparative modelling insights in this book whichare not easily accessed elsewhere.

concerns about global warming have stimulated an intense and methodologically diverse level of analytical activity aimed ultimately at greater international co-ordination in policy and planning
simultaneously we are witnessing a worldwide trend away from planned national energy policies to new market structures

To accommodate these shifts in focus, more comprehensive analytical procedures are needed to address technical challenges in handling large models whilst smaller, policy-specific behavioural models may give greater insight to the strategic challenges involved in maintaining focus on key industry restructuring issues for which past data is not available. This volume provides a comprehensive and up-to-date reference to the range of issues and modelling alternatives that a systems perspective gives to the analysis of energy policy. Practitioners, analysts and researchers will find new studies and comparative modelling insights in this book which are not easily accessed elsewhere.
