Since its modest beginning in the 1970s, the academic and research focus on energy has grown substantially and energy has established itself as an independent, interdisciplinary subject area. It attracts attention from people in a range of different fields including engineers, scientists, geologists, environmentalists, bankers, investors, policy makers and politicians. Energy Economics introduces the basic concepts of energy economics and explains how simple economic tools can be used to analyse contemporary energy issues.

Energy Economics is organised into six parts that give the reader a thorough grounding in various key aspects of the subject:

  • basic demand-related concepts and ideas used in energy economics;
  • supply-side economics;
  • energy markets, with specific emphasis on oil, gas and coal;
  • the application of simple economic principles in analysing contemporary energy issues;
  • environmental aspects of energy use; and
  • regulatory and governance issues.

Energy Economics is an easily accessible reference book for students of energy economics at the postgraduate level, as well as for a wider interdisciplinary audience. It provides readers with the skills required to understand and analyse complex energy issues from an economic perspective.

Review

Aus den Rezensionen:

“Der Autor ... präsentiert hier 5eine detaillierte Darstellung ökonomischer Sachverhalte in der Energiewirtschaft, die sowohl für studentische Einsteiger, als auch für postgraduierte und interdisziplinär arbeitende Wissenschaftler zu empfehlen ist. ... Insgesamt macht das Werk sowohl grundlegende ökonomische Zusammenhänge anschaulich klar und erläutert darüber hinaus auch Wechselwirkungen zwischen Marktakteuren und der Politik.“ (Steven Salecki, in: Ökologisches Wirtschaften, 2012, Issue: 1, S. 53 f.)

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible book
Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2012

This book is so poorly typeset that is eligible and virtually useless. The chapter structure looks fine and the book looks promising however, it is riddled with grammatical and typographical errors and poor english usage. In addition large parts of the book have the equations either completely missing or so poorly typeset as to be incomprehensible. Awful book avoid avoid at all costs.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good start point
Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2017

Because is difficult to know with detail all the topics discussed in the book (I think nobody can) not all chapters are homogeneously written. However, it is a very good starting point to understand the economy behind energy markets. Perhaps the main problem (or issue) is that doesn't have practical examples as you may expect.

I was initially hesitant given that the author's credentials seem non-existent. But after I went through the book I found it quite comprehensive and useful. Indeed, I have never seen any other work that does as good a job.

Very complete overview of the field. This being said, it also makes you realize how much the field could benefit from a through microeconomic analysis.

The concepts and topics covered in this textbook are very useful and interesting, especially in the area of energy. However, this book has severe grammatical and severe sentence-structure issues that distract from the overall reading experience.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good idea, very scarse execution
Reviewed in Italy on December 9, 2013
Verified Purchase
The architecture of this book is very attractive and it covers a wide range of argoments and topics in the field of energy economics.
The level of reasoning and the deepth of analysis is also good: not too complicated but not even too simple and introductory.
Unfortunately the book is full of typos and it is written in a rather terrible English. Someone may even doubt that the author is even an English native speaker or theaches in English or has ever read what he wrote before publish the manuscrict (blame for that must also go to Springer: it sells books at a premium price and in this case I think it did not even give any editorial assistance at all to the author).
In short, especially for a student or a practicioner, I would suggest to read or buy another book. This is not worthy the money and the time spent.
