Reducing the Risks

Robert Rapier

Chapter Chapter 9 in Power Plays, 2012, pp 131-146 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract A sound energy policy should take into account the supply side, the demand side, and the possibility that projections will be wrong on one or both counts. Energy policy decisions must also factor in the impact on current and future generations, and they should be capable of weathering changing political climates. Unfortunately, when energy policy decisions fail to meet these criteria, the result is a dysfunctional, inconsistent energy policy.
