Agreement on the need to consolidate a rapid, efficient process against climate change
“The EU must regain the trust of the citizens, recover its position of leadership and earn credibility,” added the Chair of the Energy Committee of the European Parliament. He also stated that Europe is beginning to believe in the possibility of achieving a reduction of up to 30 per cent in its emissions, and that he hoped a global agreement would be forthcoming in this respect.

Kall anka
I en riktigt märklig artikel i SvD påstår Carolina Neurath att Nord Pool är en Kalle Anka-börs när det är hela marknaden som är Kalle Anka och det enda vettiga på marknaden är just Nord Pool. Vad vill hon? Bara förvirra? Javisst. Marknaden är så sjuk att journalister i seriösa dagstidningar gör sitt bästa för att förvirra sina lärare om hur marknaden (inte) fungerar.

För smart för att vara sant
Intelligenta elnät ska hjälpa konsumenter på en elmarknad som märkligt nog är skild från elnätet att använda elen på ett smart sätt.

World Energy Council Statement on COP15
Energy is at the core of economic, social and environmental development. Moving towards a low carbon economy in a context in which we see a major demand shift towards Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East and, in which 1.6 billion people strive for access to modern energy will require strong and effective policies to be in place.
Climate change and energy security are global challenges and therefore have no economically efficient solutions within national boundaries. This underlines the role of trade and makes the rules that govern it an essential building block of the global public good. Nationalistic solutions that lose sight of the global picture and the need for a coordinated and collaborative approach delay the necessary international policy convergence. The resulting high investment framework uncertainty makes infrastructure investments unnecessarily risky and we all will pay the risk premium as part of higher energy prices and further delay in climate change mitigation.
The right incentive framework is the key to the delivery of the investments required to guarantee security of supply and mitigate climate change.
Failing the implementation of true costs will deliver and lock us in with an inadequate infrastructure.
Such framework needs to provide
- transparency and certainty to allow for the adequate investments to take place without further delay;
- a predictable carbon price to steer the most effective technology choice, keeping in mind the specific needs of low-income citizens;
- a market based international coordination mechanism to enable investments where they have the highest impact;
- the enabling of technology innovation and technology transfer by complementary policies and incentives, taking into account the equity issues among countries.
- An unprecedented level of collaboration involving public and private sector will be necessary in the design and implementation of such policies. WEC's World Energy and Climate Policy Assessment promotes the coordination and monitoring of effective policies to ensure energy security and mitigate climate change.
Energy trade is critical to global economic development and international energy security. The WEC Trade and Investment Rules for Energy study warns that GHG reduction should be addressed through means other than the use of trade restrictions.

En av DN största finansiärer vill sprida lite ljus. Alltid trevligt med en snygg inramning till objektiva nyheter, eller hyr?
