The recent rise to prominence of renewable energy and energy
efficiency has been driven by their potential to lower the
environmental impacts of energy use. As these technologies mature
they must demonstrate not only their environmental benefits, but
also their economic competitiveness. The relative costs and
benefits of each potential project, whether large or small, must be
systematically modelled and assessed before they can be financed
and implemented. Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency: Assessment
of Projects and Policies deals with the appraisal of such projects
against financial and non-financial criteria, illustrating the
assessment tools necessary to make appropriate, evidence based
decisions as efficiently as possible. The most important
technologies are first described, stressing their economic and
performance characteristics. Key project appraisal concepts are
then introduced, approaches to modelling the cash flows in energy
projects are described, and the issues of uncertainty and
optimisation are fully discussed. These financial concepts,
together with methods for estimating greenhouse gas emissions, are
extended to address aspects of energy policy. Illustrated with many
case studies this is an ideal introduction to financial and
non-financial appraisal techniques as applied to energy efficient
and renewable energy technologies.
