An agenda for future Social Sciences and Humanities research on energy efficiency
Decades of techno-economic energy policymaking and research have meant evidence from the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH)—including critical reflections on what changing a society’s relation to energy (efficiency) even means—have been underutilised. In particular, (i) the SSH have too often been sidelined and/or narrowly pigeonholed by policymakers, funders, and other decision-makers when driving research agendas, and (ii) the setting of SSH-…
Policy-relevant insights for regional renewable energy deployment
Steering the ‘C-Day’
How History Matters for the Governance of Sociotechnical Transitions
Branching points and transition pathways in the Greek Natural Gas Regime, 1966–2016
Income Distribution, Growth and Basic Needs in India
This book, first published in 1979, explores the sources and patterns of the distribution of personal incomes in India, between rural and urban areas and among socio-economic classes, differentiating particularly those groups falling below the poverty line
Understanding the material dimensions of the uneven deployment of renewable energy in two Italian regions
Alternative liquid fuels in the UK in the inter-war period (1918–1938)
UK natural gas system integration in the making, 1960–2010
Branching points for transition pathways
Bristol Water Works Company; a study of nineteenth century resistance to local authority purchase attempts
Past and prospective energy transitions
Developing transition pathways for a low carbon electricity system in the UK
Proactive Energy-Environment Policy Strategies
This paper contains a consideration of the recent arguments in favour of adopting ‘anticipate and prevent’ or ‘proactive’ energy — environment policy strategies, in place of the ‘reactive’ strategies that are a feature of many current approaches to policymaking in this area. The roles that energy — environment modelling might play in investigating alternative scenarios and proactive policy strategies are then examined. The focus is on the advanta…
Urban Poverty and Some Policy Options
This paper analyses the problem of the urban poor in India from a primarily macro-economic perspective, tracing the origins of their economic status to their low share in the factor earnings generated in individual industries. A macro-economic model then simulates the implications for them of a range of alternative policies, including growth on the current pattern of development priorities, income transfers from rich to poor and growth-with-redis…
