The Government must start thinking strategically about energy security to protect the UK's energy supply against short-term shocks and rising global energy prices, according to a report by MPs on the Energy and Climate Change Committee. Gas storage capacity needs to be increased in the UK to minimise the potential damage from supply interruptions or price spikes, the report argues. It reveals that the UK's current storage capacity amounts to only 14 days worth of gas supply - a dangerously low level compared with France which has 87 days worth of gas storage, Germany 69 and Italy 59. 19 gigawatts (GW) of ageing electricity plant will close by 2018 and the UK will become increasingly reliant on energy imports as North Sea oil and gas reserves decline. The report concludes that new electricity generation currently being built or planned will fill this "gap". But it urges the Government to ensure security of supply by delivering on its energy efficiency targets, rolling out smart meters - that can balance demand - and maintaining a diverse energy mix.

This evidence is presented to the Select Committee to provide a perspective in terms of the threats, vulnerability and consequences of the UK Energy Supply System within a global-national context characterized by unprecedented uncertainties and increasingly complex intertwines. This contribution is based upon the ACEGES project (www.aceges.org). ACEGES stands for Agent-based Computational Economics of the Global Energy System. The ACEGES models the energy demand and supply of 216 countries. The aim is not to present another set of quantifications for policymaking, as there are a number of reports and papers published in recent years. Rather the aim is to provide a coherent overview of i) the assumptions of the energy models used to produce the published quantifications and ii) the approach used to develop energy scenarios for the assessment of the UK's Energy Supply. It is evident today that the long-term sustainability of the UK's energy system is under acute strain. Therefore the comments that follow mainly deal with the need to enhance: a. The existing energy models to assess the sensitivity of the UK's energy supply. b. The way of developing multidimensional global-national continuous scenarios for long-term assessment of the resilient of the UK energy system to international events.

This document sets out the Government's plans for a radical increase in the UK's use of renewable electricity, heat and transport, which will meet the legally-binding target of 15 per cent of energy coming from renewable sources by 2020. This Strategy will help tackle climate change, reducing the UK's emissions of carbon dioxide by over 750 million tonnes between now and 2030. It will also promote the security of UK energy supply, reducing our overall fossil fuel demand by around 10 per cent and gas imports by 20-30 per cent against what they would have been in 2020. And it will provide opportunities for the UK economy with the potential to create up to half a million more jobs in the UK renewable energy sector resulting from around £100 billion of new investment. In parallel with energy saving, nuclear and carbon capture and storage, this is a key element for setting the UK on the path to achieve a low-carbon, sustainable future that helps address dangerous climate change. This strategy could result in: more than 30 per cent of electricity and 12 per cent of heat generated from renewables; and 10 per cent of transport energy from renewables. The Government will: provide financial support for renewable electricity and heat worth around £30 billion between now and 2020; drive delivery and clear away barriers, through the Office for Renewable Energy Deployment; increase investment in emerging technologies and pursue new sources of supply: create new opportunities for individuals, communities and business to harness renewable energy. The UK Low Carbon Transition Plan is published alongside this document (ISBN 9780108508394).

This book provides a detailed assessment of the current UK energy situation, future needs and energy policies. Past policies have often taken too little account of uncertainty, and have therefore quickly become outdated. The book concludes that the need for a positive energy policy is increasingly urgent. The book is in three parts. The first part sets the UK in the world energy context, reviews the history of UK energy policy and institutions, and describes the current pattern of fuel use. The second part contains detailed analysis and discussion of UK energy demand and supply. The third part of the book reviews policies for energy conservation and discusses the overall energy prospects for the UK. The concluding chapter examines energy policy objectives, relating them to the problems and issues identified in the book. The authors are amongst the leading authorities on UK energy, and are co-authors of Energy Economics (also published by Cambridge University Press).

This book offers a detailed account of how renewable energy has moved from the margins to the mainstream in the UK, and of the battles that have been fought to achieve this, trawling through the often troubled history of government involvement. The book examines how renewables became what now seem likely to be the dominant energy sources of the future. Renewable energy technologies, using solar and wind power and other natural energy sources, are now supplying around 30% of UK electricity and appear set to continue expanding to supply around 50% within the next decade. Although the emphasis of the book is on the UK, developments there are compared with those in other countries to provide an overall assessment of the relevance of the UK experience. Chapters explore why the UK still lags behind many other countries in deploying renewables, in part, it is argued, due to its continued reliance on nuclear power. The book ends with a discussion on what sort of changes may be expected over the coming years. The author does not assume a single answer, but invites readers to consider the possibilities.

Seminar paper from the year 2002 in the subject Economy - Environment economics, grade: 4 pkt (1-6: 2), Helsinki School of Economics (Haaga Instituuti), course: Business in the EU, language: English, abstract: This course work deals with the energy sector of France and the United Kingdom, in context of the European Union. The first part concentrates on the analysis of the countries energy sector and their comparison. In the second part this analysis is brought into perspective within the European Union. As for the sources of information and their validity and quality, we used primarily the youngest publications of the European Union, since this data is compared with others the most accurate and up to date. But we also took other international sources into consideration, newspapers as well as official energy sources.
