RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY INCENTIVES IN THE OECD, CHINA AND INDIA, 2011/2012: Investment and Operating Support Programmes
RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY INCENTIVES IN THE OECD, CHINA AND INDIA, 2011/2012: Investment and Operating Support Programmes

This comprehensive report details the incentives and benefits available for renewable power development in 31 OECD countries, China and India. The study provides a clear country-to-country comparison of national incentive programs, emissions targets, and support for renewable electricity production.

 

Both the urgent need to cut GHG emissions and the contribution that renewable energy can make towards energy security is being increasingly acknowledged in developed countries. Despite current unstable macroeconomic conditions, investment in the deployment of renewable electricity remains strong. However, the persistently high cost of deployment is such that government incentives continue to be required. A major challenge for renewable power developers lies in identifying which of these incentive schemes offer good value for money and the predictability needed to justify significant commitments of capital. Combining key electricity market statistics with an analysis of operating and investment incentives for each country, the report provides concise but comprehensive information regarding the climate for renewable power investment in 31 OECD countries, China and India.

CARBON REDUCTION COMMITMENTS AND MEASURES IN THE OECD, CHINA AND INDIA, 2011/2012
CARBON REDUCTION COMMITMENTS AND MEASURES IN THE OECD, CHINA AND INDIA, 2011/2012

This study is an authoritative source for quick and easy comparison of existing carbon reduction commitments, regulations and incentives in 31 OECD countries, China and India. The report concludes with a concise summary of which countries are ahead or behind in terms of carbon reduction efforts.

 

All major countries acknowledge the urgent need to cut carbon emissions and shift to a low-carbon economy. Accordingly, they have carbon reduction commitments, although the degree of commitment significantly differs between countries. To observe those commitments, governments have been adopting various measures, both regulations and incentives. However, the precise effectiveness of those measures is largely not yet understood and thus uncertainty prevails among policy makers and the public as to whether emissions targets can be achieved or not. For businesses, challenges lie not only in trying to reduce their emissions but also in identifying potential impacts of current and future regulations on their businesses and maximising potential benefits deriving from incentive schemes.

European Renewable Electricity Sector 2009/2010: A Country Comparison of Risks and Opportunities
European Renewable Electricity Sector 2009/2010: A Country Comparison of Risks and Opportunities

This expanded and updated 2009/10 edition of LRI's original pioneering report provides a greater depth and range of analysis, covering 20 EU member states and it includes a year-on-year comparison of the changes to the risks and opportunities in each EU member state.

 

The European renewable electricity sector is experiencing rapid development as EU member states aim to meet the 2020 GHG emissions reduction and renewable energy targets. The financial crisis and economic recession of 2008/09 brought about dramatic changes in the renewable electricity sector in the EU. Investment, which slowed in early 2009, is starting to return and there is an urgent need for an accurate means of assessing the opportunities and risks associated with renewable electricity development.
