نموذج “كابسارك” المخصص للمركبات: تقدير تكاليف السيارات الكهربائية

This paper discusses the model we have developed at KAPSARC for estimating the relative costs of passenger car fleets containing low-emission vehicles of different types, particularly with emphasis on electric vehicles. The main purpose of the model is to enable…

هل تؤثر السياسة الحالية للسيارات الكهربائية في تحسين تكاليف إنتاجها واستخدامها؟

Passenger cars are responsible for a large and steadily growing share of global energy-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Electric vehicles (EVs) powered by renewable electricity have the potential to provide a substantial contribution to the decarbonization of passenger car transport.…

Third-Party Access to Regasification Terminals: Adapting to the LNG Markets’ Reconfiguration

Substantial changes to global liquefied natural gas (LNG) markets, including the move toward the creation of an Asian trading hub, more flexibility through an increase of spot and short-term trade, liberalization in key Asian markets, emergence of new players and…

The unstudied barriers to widespread renewable energy deployment: Fossil fuel price responses

Energy Policy

Renewable energy policy focuses on supporting the deployment of renewable power generators so as to reduce their costs through scale economies and technological learning. It is expected that, once cost parity with fossil fuel generation is achieved, a transition towards…

Determinants of energy productivity in 39 countries: An empirical investigation

Energy Economics

This paper uses three types of analysis to investigate the drivers of energy productivity changes occurring in 39 countries during 1995–2009. We find that increases in sectoral energy productivity were the primary driver behind economy-wide energy productivity improvements. Structural economic…

تحديات الطاقة المتجدّدة والفحم في الهند: التنافس أم التكامل

Coal and renewables are seen as the cornerstone of India’s energy strategy to meet its growing electricity demand. These two energy resources are at different stages of legislative, policy, regulatory and institutional reform.

Fossil fuel price shocks and CO2 emissions: The case of Spain

Energy Journal

This paper focuses on the impact of oil, natural gas and coal price shocks on the Spanish business cycle from 1969 to 2013. It uses Bayesian procedures to estimate a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model for a small open…

ازدهار مكانة الغاز الطبيعي المسال كمصدر للطاقة

Dramatic changes in the global liquified natural gas (LNG) markets are already visible through market dynamics and stakeholders’ behavior, but many other signs point to much more significant changes to come – a great reconfiguration, which could transform the way…

أثر اضافة الخلايا الشمسية على نظام انتاج الكهرباء في السعودية

عمرو الشرفاء, وليد مطر

Intermittent generation from wind or photovoltaics (PV) imposes a cost on the power systems in which they are deployed. These costs vary regionally due to different fuel costs and ramping flexibility of existing grid capacities. With 2015 as a reference…

Economic impacts of debottlenecking congestion in the Chinese coal supply chain

Energy Economics

The fast pace of development in China’s coal industry created bottlenecks in its transportation infrastructure. These bottlenecks likely affected not only China’s domestic coal market, but also global coal markets. In this paper, we estimate the costs and consequences of…
