The UK’s energy future: a call for greater urgency

‘The UK’s energy future: a call for greater urgency’ The next 10 years will be critical if the UK is to meet the targets of its Climate Change Act. Sinead Lynch, Shell UK Country Chair, explains why the company’s long experience in UK energy markets, coupled with its future scenarios for the global energy system, show a clear need for more urgent action in the power, transport, building and industrial sectors.

The Hendry Review of Tidal Lagoon Energy

Charles Hendry recently published his review of tidal lagoons, commissioned by Energy Secretary Amber Rudd in May 2016.  Charles has looked at how tidal lagoons would help meet our energy priorities – security of supply, decarbonisation, UK economic opportunities/jobs and affordability.   He has concluded that there would be ‘no regrets’ in moving forward with a pathfinder project at Swansea and in order to develop a wider fleet of tidal lagoons, the Government should prepare a National Policy Statement and create a Tidal Power Authority.

Biofuels for Food – A spatial PEM approach to determine when the production of biofuel increases that of food crops

Mr Niklas  Hinkel, University of Cologne, Germany Following initial excitement about biofuels, competition between energy crops and food crops for resources came to the center of attention in the mid-2000s, when food prices rose distinctly. The resulting generalizing criticism on biofuels needs to be differentiated. In this project, I show under which circumstances food production profits from biofuels. Namely, if high export costs, caused by high fuel costs, seclude the producers of underutilized agricultural areas from global markets, an expansion of local biofuel production could be beneficial. It would lower fuel costs and thus, transport and export costs. Given favorable market conditions (prices globally are higher than locally plus respective transport costs), producers could now profitably export and increase food output up to their capacity limit. This project outlines the transition from the dependence of imports from volatile oil markets towards sustainable energy independence in the transport sector of a developing economy (in this case Zambia). The production of biofuel is a technological innovation in energy supply, which permits an increase in agricultural production. This augments welfare globally. If this increase Read more…
