This paper examines five different scenarios with a range of power consumption trends and determines that a significant reduction in electricity consumption can reduce the mid- to long-term costs of the German power system—even with greater use of renewable energy. View Summary +
Improvements in technology, low natural gas prices, and more flexible and positive attitudes in government and utilities are making distributed generation more viable. With more distributed generation, notably combined heat and power, comes an increase in the importance of standby… View Summary +

Lately, it seems as if everyone associated with the power sector or an environmental organization is opining on whether EPA will allow this approach or that mechanism to count toward compliance in its proposal to regulate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions… View Summary +
Puerto Rico is currently considering legislation on power sector reform that would create regulatory oversight of the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA) and any other energy service provider that is or would be engaged in furnishing electric services. A… View Summary +
Energy efficiency is a proven, low-cost strategy for reducing carbon emissions and meeting other environmental goals. As with any vehicle for change, success must be measurable. Energy efficiency evaluation, measurement, and verification (EM&V) comprises actions undertaken to assess and document… View Summary +
Die Frage nach den Kosten beherrscht die öffentliche Debatte um die Energiewende. Darin wird bisher vernachlässigt, dass mit einer Steigerung der Energieeffizienz die Energiewende deutlich günstiger umzusetzen ist. Ein von RAP, der European Climate Foundation (ECF) und Agora Energiewende beauftragter… View Summary +
