Book excerpt: This report documents work completed for the Directorate General for Energy (DG ENER) of the European Commission (EC) on the Study on energy subsidies and other government interventions in the EU. The work was done by a two-member consortium: Enerdata, the project lead, and Trinomics. It is the latest in a series of DG ENER studies going back to 2014 documenting energy subsidies and related instruments. The last study was also conducted by Enerdata and Trinomics and covered taxes and subsidies for 2008-2018 in the EU27 and G20. This study adds EU27 subsidy data for 2019 and 2020. Tasks 1-3 of this study involved collecting, documenting, normalising, controlling, and analysing subsidy data from national and EU sources. Task 4 compared this data to subsidy data reported by MSs in their National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs), and collecting information on country policy environments affecting energy subsidies. Task 5 looked at how subsidy volumes (amount of payments) changed 2020 relative to 2019, the assumption being that the change was largely due to the economic and social impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic; in this task we also documented MS policy response measures to the pandemic that impact the energy sector by cataloguing and analysing information from MS Recovery and Resilience Plans (RRPs).

Book excerpt: The aims of this task are to provide an analysis of the evolution of the energy subsidies in the EU27 since 2008 and a comparison with non-EU27 G20 countries. We have also provided a detailed inventory that will be used for methodological support to the EC in future reporting on energy subsidy accounting and Member States' policy measures addressing the phasing-out of inefficient fossil fuel subsidies. Chapter 2 analyses the evolution of energy subsidy amounts across several dimensions: their purposes, including the energy efficiency related subsidies, the energy carriers and sources, their categories and instruments, and the economic sectors. Chapter 3 provides a cross-country benchmarking with the EU27 and the G20 countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This summary report presents the key results from the study on 'Energy costs, taxes and the impact of government interventions on investments in the energy sector' which brings together the findings of detailed task reports addressing: (1) the cost of energy (LCOE); (2) network costs; (3) external costs of energy; (4) energy taxes; (5) energy subsidies; and, (6) energy investments. This summary report also introduces three new synthesis analyses. The first analysis sums the results from (1)+(2)+(3) above to estimate a 'total cost of energy' per electricity technology. This shows that in the EU, wind energy, hydropower and nuclear power are the lowest cost technologies, whilst the fossil fuel technologies and biomass have the highest costs. The second analysis addresses energy taxes (4) and subsidies (5) and shows that subsidies to renewable energy are largely recovered through charges to consumers, and that tax revenues and their linked subsidies tend to move in tandem. The third analysis, compares the results of (3) and (4) to analyse the extent to which energy taxation compares to (internalises) the external costs identified in this work, it shows that for the EU27, consumption taxes for electricity are equivalent to around 50-60% of the external costs of electricity.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication aims to provide the first comprehensive and consistent record of energy subsidies in the EaP region, with a view to improving transparency and establishing a solid analytical basis that can help build the case for further reforms in these countries (this study covers Armenia, Azerbaijan Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine). Based on OECD standard methodology, the study provides quantitative estimates of government support provided to consumers and producers of coal, oil and related petroleum products, natural gas, and electricity and heat generated on the basis of these fossil fuels. This report also briefly looks at public support allocated to energy efficiency measures and renewable energy sources in the EaP countries, and discusses the taxation and energy pricing policies that underpin the analysis of energy subsidies. This publication was prepared within the framework of the "Greening Economies in the Eastern Neighbourhood" (EaP GREEN) Project, supported by the European Union and co-ordinated with governments of the EaP countries and UN partners: UNECE, UN Environment and UNIDO.

Book excerpt: The overarching objective of this report is to analyse the impact of subsidies on investments in power generation, extraction, transport, and heating. The report gives a comprehensive overview of the evolution of energy investments across the economy and provides an analysis of how fossil fuel and renewable subsidies impacted the take-up of renewables in the EU and Non-EU G20 countries over 2008-2018. Section 2 presents the key trends in energy investments for the countries in scope with a special focus on fossil fuel extraction and power generation subsidies. Section 3 analyses the role of subsidies in the observed dynamics of investments. Section 3.1 describes the power sector analysis and shows how fossil fuel and renewable subsidies affected the take-up of different technologies using a bottom-up energy sector model, FTT: Power. Section 3.2 to 3.5 present sector case studies using descriptive and econometric analysis. The first case study explores how fossil fuel subsidies impacted extraction investments. The second case study focuses on the electrification of transport and investigates the effect of subsidies on electric vehicle sales. The last case study analysis the buildings heating sector and the impact of buildings energy efficiency subsidies on heat pump sales.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report represents one of the key contributions to the biennial report on energy costs and prices that the European Commission is committed to provide. This work builds upon and expands the coverage of the two previous editions of the report carried out in 2014 and 2016. In comparison, this report updates the analysis to include the latest data, and: - updates and extends the analysis of international energy prices and their evolution and drivers -adding many more prices and wider coverage (including the whole G20); - updates and extends the analysis of how energy costs influence industrial competitiveness - including through expanding the countries covered (G20), the sectors covered (from 15 to more than 30) and using decomposition analysis to deepen insight into the drivers of impacts; - provides new insights on the impact of price regulation - not included in previous work; and - updates and expands the analysis on the evolution of energy subsidies, also covering subsidies to energy products used in transport and agriculture, and providing new econometric analysis of the impact of subsidies on energy prices and costs. The specific objectives of the study were to: - (Chapter 3 - Task 1) Analyse the development of wholesale and retail electricity, natural gas and petroleum product prices in the EU28 and major trading partners, as well as the drivers of these prices; - (Chapter 4 - Task 2) Analyse the effect of energy prices and costs on the production costs and competitiveness of industries in the EU and in major EU trading partners; - (Chapter 5 - Task 3) Analyse price regulation of electricity and gas in the EU28 and how this impacts on energy prices, quality of service and propensity to invest; - (Chapter 6 - Task 4) Analyse subsidies on energy products (especially fossil fuels) used in the energy, transport and agricultural sectors in the EU and to evaluate the effect of these subsidies on energy prices on households and industry (particularly energy intensive industries).
Book Synopsis Government Subsidies by : Mr.Benedict J. Clements
Download or read book Government Subsidies written by Mr.Benedict J. Clements and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1995-09-01 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper addresses the problems of defining and measuring government subsidies, examines why and how government subsidies are used as a fiscal policy tool, assesses their economic effects, appraises international empirical evidence on government subsidies, and offers options for their reform. Recent international trends in government subsidy expenditure are analyzed for the 16-year period from 1975 to 1990, using general government subsidy data for 60 countries from the System of National Accounts (SNA) and central government expenditure on subsidies and other current transfers for 68 countries from Government Finance Statistics (GFS). The paper reviews major policy options for subsidy reform, focusing on ways to improve the cost-effectiveness of subsidy programs.
Book Synopsis Of Markets and Subsidies by : Felix Mormann
Download or read book Of Markets and Subsidies written by Felix Mormann and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is commonly characterized as a nation with a deep distrust of big government and a strong commitment to markets and competition. In contrast, the prevailing image of the European Union is that of a highly bureaucratized polity favoring interventionist economic governance over free-market capitalism. In the context of clean energy, however, these roles appear to be somewhat reversed. A top-level survey of the U.S. clean energy policy landscape reveals a surprisingly pervasive reliance on government subsidies with few, if any, competitive elements. E.U. clean energy policy, meanwhile, reflects an unexpected commitment to market-based instruments and competition. This essay suggests that these counter-intuitive policy trends can be explained by critical differences in the black-letter law of both jurisdictions and its enforcement in the courts, among other factors. Unlike their American counterparts, E.U. judges prioritize the timely transition to a low-carbon energy economy over unrestricted competition among member states. As the European Union pushes for greater intrastate competition in clean energy policy, the United States focuses instead on defending the Founding Fathers' ideal of unfettered interstate competition.

This book was released on 2014-07-09 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries price subsidies are common, especially on food and fuels. However, these are neither well targeted nor cost effective as a social protection tool, often benefiting mainly the better off instead of the poor and vulnerable. This paper explores the challenges of replacing generalized price subsidies with more equitable social safety net instruments, including the short-term inflationary effects, and describes the features of successful subsidy reforms.

This book was released on 2013-08-12 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reform of energy subsidies is an important but challenging issue for sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries. There is a relatively large theoretical and empirical literature on this issue. While this paper relies on that literature, too, it tailors its discussion to SSA countries to respond to the following questions: Why it is important to reduce energy subsidies? What are the difficulties involved in energy subsidy reform? How best can a subsidy reform be implemented? This paper uses various sources of information on SSA countries: quantitative assessments, surveys, and individual (but standardized) case studies.

This book was released on 2012-11-29 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Government has three objectives for energy policy - to keep the lights on, to keep energy bills affordable, and to decarbonise energy generation. Simultaneous to the publication of this policy paper the Government is introducing the Energy Bill (HC Bill 100 2012-13, ISBN 9780215050151) into Parliament to implement the key aspects of Electricity Market Reform (EMR) as well as making a wider range of reforms. The Government set out its intentions in the EMR white paper issued in July 2011 (available at http://www.decc.gov.uk/en/content/cms/legislation/white_papers/emr_wp_2011/emr_wp_2011.aspx). The Bill will drive the £110 billion of investment needed in the electricity sector by 2020, to ensure reliable, diverse and low-carbon power. With a fifth of the UK's electricity generating capacity due to close this decade these reforms are vital.
