This book was released on 2019-05-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scale of China's innovation ambitions inspires worldwide commentary, much of it poorly informed. Focusing on electricity, telecommunication and semiconductors, this book offers a richly detailed account of China's innovation efforts. Massive application of human, policy and financial resources shows great promise, but institutional obstacles, conflicting objectives, ill-advised policies and Soviet-era legacies inject inefficiencies, resulting in a complex mosaic of success and failure in both technical and commercial dimensions. State Grid leads the world in high-voltage power transmission, while domestic semiconductors lag behind the international frontier. Electricity and telecom providers record impressive technical advances, but overinvestment and inefficient operation contribute to high costs and prices. Nuclear power combines technical excellence with commercial weakness. Cost reduction rather than new technology underpins commercial success in solar materials. The book's granular studies look beyond specific technologies to incorporate the policy matrix, regulatory structures and global developments into the appraisal of China's innovation achievements.
Book Synopsis Electricity and Telecom Regulation by : Irene Wu
Download or read book Electricity and Telecom Regulation written by Irene Wu and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyzes China's telecommunications and electricity sector from three perspectives - market reforms, regulatory reforms, and their intersection with major challenges - and places each in a global context. Market reforms include changes in market structure, both globally and in China. Regulatory reforms include changes in governance structure, both globally and in China, along with price reform. For telecom, the intersection is with Internet and media; for electricity, with the environment. China has implemented reforms in both sectors with significant success in terms of massive investment and increased subscribership. However, in both sectors there are longstanding problems that if unresolved will have significant opportunity costs in terms of growth and innovation.
Book Synopsis Between Regulation Og Deregulation by : Christian Bergqvist
Download or read book Between Regulation Og Deregulation written by Christian Bergqvist and published by Djoef Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La 4e de couverture indique : "Today no one questions the benefits of allowing consumers to choose freely between suppliers of electricity and telecommunications services. This is however a fairly recent development. Not long ago the provision of these services was reserved for few national public sector incumbents, who were often also entrusted with regulatory tasks. This development is interesting and notable in itself. However, equally or perhaps even more interesting, is the role played by competition law in the process. Most observers agree that competition law only played a limited role in this transformation due to the limited ability of competition law to address the special problems and complexity of the electricity and telecommunications sectors. These observations are based on perceived shortcomings in regulating these complex sectors of industry. As it will be demonstrated the observations are not only incorrect but also fail to do justice to the very active role played by competition law. Looking back on the process of liberalization that started more than 25 years ago, it is apparent that absent the 'sledgehammer' effect of its competition law tools, the EU Commission would have been significantly worse positioned in extending the internal market concept to the provision of electricity and telecommunication services. Arguably, the whole liberalization process would never have come about or would have taken a different direction. However, in this process competition law has been 'twisted' to a point of giving it a certain regulatory flavour. The purpose of this book is to develop the understanding of the liberalization process in its entirety including the role played by competition law. Moreover, some words of caution will be offered against expanding the application of competition law to these sectors further without careful consideration of the long term ramifications for the sectors and competition law."
Book Synopsis Liberalization and Regulation of Telecoms, Electricity, and Gas in the United States by : Mark A Jamison
Download or read book Liberalization and Regulation of Telecoms, Electricity, and Gas in the United States written by Mark A Jamison and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States has a long tradition of commission style regulation of privately owned utilities. This fact has both advantages and disadvantages. On the plus side producers, political bodies, regulatory agencies, courts, consumers, and other players are fully adapted to the idea and practice of independent regulation. Furthermore there is a ready pool of talented professionals to analyze issues and develop solutions as new issues emerge. But these advantages can also be disadvantages during times of change. Complex, well developed systems are often slow to recognize new realities and are costly to change because regulatory policies create interest groups that benefit from the status quo. In some instances new technologies and policies cannot be introduced incrementally, but rather strand investment and challenge investor's willingness to provide funds. In this chapter we examine the development and evolution of utility regulation in the United States, focusing on energy and telecommunications. We begin with the development of these industries, taking as given the traditions, institutions, and legal frameworks created through the regulation of transportation and other industries, even though these laid critical foundations for utility regulation. We begin by describing the economic and political context for regulation. We then examine regulation for each sector. We conclude with a brief review of emerging issues.
Book Synopsis The Economics and Regulation of Network Industries by : Ingo Vogelsang
Download or read book The Economics and Regulation of Network Industries written by Ingo Vogelsang and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-04 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered how your telephone company or Internet service provider can give you access to almost all people in the world, or how electricity suppliers can compete with each other if there is only one electric supply line passing through your street? This Element deals with the economics and public regulation of such network industries. It puts particular emphasis on the specific economic concepts used for analyzing them and on the regulatory reform movement and the compatibility of regulation and competition. Worldwide most of these industries have changed dramatically in recent years, telecommunications in particular. Network industries mostly exhibit economies of scale in production and similar economies in consumption. Both of these properties cause market power problems that often require industry-specific regulation. However, due to technological and market changes network policies have moved on from end-user regulation to wholesale regulation and in some cases to deregulation.
Book Synopsis Electricity and Telecommunications Regulation in Small and Developing Countries by : Jon Stern
Download or read book Electricity and Telecommunications Regulation in Small and Developing Countries written by Jon Stern and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last 10-15 years, a new standard model has taken hold for the economic framework for the operation of utilities. The new model has as its core that utility services will be: -provided by a set of commercialised companies; -monopoly (eg network) elements are separated from potentially competitive elements; -competition is actively introduced into the potentially competitive elements; and -private capital is introduced where possible and appropriate, particularly into the competitive elements, typically with privatisation of some or all of the existing assets. Over the last 10-15 years, this new model has largely replaced the traditional model of utility services being supplied by a state-owned vertically and horizontally integrated monopoly, supervised by the national government and typically operating in a non-commercial or semi-commercialised way. This change has been induced across developed and now across developing countries for the following two main reasons: (i) a major reduction in the ability of national governments to finance utility investment from tax revenues ; an (ii) a much greater emphasis on the need to improve efficiency and reduce the costs of infrastructure services (connection as well as service) coupled with (at least in developed countries) the achievement of very widespread if not universal service . To support the newly commercialised and privatised utilities, there have been major developments in the theory and practice of regulation. New utility regulatory institutions have been discussed and introduced in many countries. In addition, it has been realised that the introduction of competition (and, in particular, the development of competition over networks) has demonstrated the need for new and more complex forms of regulation to support the utility reforms.

Book Synopsis Economic Regulation and Its Reform by : Nancy L. Rose
Download or read book Economic Regulation and Its Reform written by Nancy L. Rose and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-08-29 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past thirty years have witnessed a transformation of government economic intervention in broad segments of industry throughout the world. Many industries historically subject to economic price and entry controls have been largely deregulated, including natural gas, trucking, airlines, and commercial banking. However, recent concerns about market power in restructured electricity markets, airline industry instability amid chronic financial stress, and the challenges created by the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act, which allowed commercial banks to participate in investment banking, have led to calls for renewed market intervention. Economic Regulation and Its Reform collects research by a group of distinguished scholars who explore these and other issues surrounding government economic intervention. Determining the consequences of such intervention requires a careful assessment of the costs and benefits of imperfect regulation. Moreover, government interventions may take a variety of forms, from relatively nonintrusive performance-based regulations to more aggressive antitrust and competition policies and barriers to entry. This volume introduces the key issues surrounding economic regulation, provides an assessment of the economic effects of regulatory reforms over the past three decades, and examines how these insights bear on some of today’s most significant concerns in regulatory policy.

Book excerpt: "The authors review a number of studies on the effectiveness of utility regulatory agency and governance arrangements for the electricity industry, particularly for developing countries. They discuss governance criteria and their measurement, both legal frameworks and surveys of regulatory practice. They also discuss the results from econometric studies of effectiveness for regulatory agencies in the electricity and telecommunications industries and compare these with the results from econometric studies of independent central banks and their governance. The authors conclude with a discussion of policy implications and of priorities for information collection to improve understanding of these issues. "--World Bank web site.
