Download or read book Energy, Environment and Globalization written by Anshuman Gupta and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-08-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes contemporary issues relating to energy, environment, and globalization in the Indian context. As a signatory to the Paris climate accord, India has reiterated its commitment to taking strong and positive steps toward climate change mitigation. However, as one of the fastest growing economies in the world, it is battling the effects of a steep rise in fossil fuel usage and pollution. Further, increasing globalization is leading to greater economic activity and production, resulting in additional energy use, which has a negative effect on the environment. The book argues that globalization need not have only a negative environmental impact; it can also have positive impact through the importation of environmentally sound technologies and implementing global compliance standards. The book is divided into three sections: The energy section discusses issues relating to the status of Indian natural gas market and the need for developing an efficient gas market in India; the economics and politics of sustainable energy in India; the challenges of thermal power and significance of clean thermal power generation in India; environmental and policy issues concerning energy use in urban India; the importance of energy use in developing Human Development Index (HDI); and issues relating to renewable energy in India. The environment section then examines topics such as the impact of global warming on local weather by examining the frequency of extreme weather events such as drought and floods, and their impact on farming activities in the Indian state of Odisha; the importance of according the economic value to environmentally significant things like national park , mangroves, etc. for sustainable development; the role of environmental accounting for ecological sustainability and ecotourism; and environmental concerns increasingly gaining traction among the corporate sector for their long-run benefits . Lastly, the third section addresses issues relating to the challenges and opportunities of globalization, such as the interface between globalization and environment; managing India’s business interest in proposing new Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT); the challenges being faced by Indian exports and their revival; and making Indian SMEs competitive. As such, it is an invaluable resource for policymakers, researchers, practitioners and students in the field of energy, environment and trade economics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mobility is fundamental to economic and social activities such as commuting, manufacturing, or supplying energy. Each movement has an origin, a potential set of intermediate locations, a destination, and a nature which is linked with geographical attributes. Transport systems composed of infrastructures, modes and terminals are so embedded in the socio-economic life of individuals, institutions and corporations that they are often invisible to the consumer. This is paradoxical as the perceived invisibility of transportation is derived from its efficiency. Understanding how mobility is linked with geography is main the purpose of this book. The third edition of The Geography of Transport Systems has been revised and updated to provide an overview of the spatial aspects of transportation. This text provides greater discussion of security, energy, green logistics, as well as new and updated case studies, a revised content structure, and new figures. Each chapter covers a specific conceptual dimension including networks, modes, terminals, freight transportation, urban transportation and environmental impacts. A final chapter contains core methodologies linked with transport geography such as accessibility, spatial interactions, graph theory and Geographic Information Systems for transportation (GIS-T). This book provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the field, with a broad overview of its concepts, methods, and areas of application. The accompanying website for this text contains a useful additional material, including digital maps, PowerPoint slides, databases, and links to further reading and websites. The website can be accessed at: http://people.hofstra.edu/geotrans This text is an essential resource for undergraduates studying transport geography, as well as those interest in economic and urban geography, transport planning and engineering.

This book was released on 2021-04-16 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The electric vehicle market has been gradually gaining prominence in the world due to the rise in pollution levels caused by traditional IC engine-based vehicles. The advantages of electric vehicles are multi-pronged in terms of cost, energy efficiency, and environmental impact. The running and maintenance cost are considerably less than traditional models. The harmful exhaust emissions are reduced, besides the greenhouse gas emissions, when the electric vehicle is supplied from a renewable energy source. However, apart from some Western nations, many developing and underdeveloped countries have yet to take up this initiative. This lack of enthusiasm has been primarily attributed to the capital investment required for charging infrastructure and the slow transition of energy generation from the fossil fuel to the renewable energy format. Currently, there are very few charging stations, and the construction of the same needs to be ramped up to supplement the growth of electric vehicles. Grid integration issues also crop up when the electric vehicle is used to either do supply addition to or draw power from the grid. These problems need to be fixed at all the levels to enhance the future of energy efficient transportation. Electric Vehicles and the Future of Energy Efficient Transportation explores the growth and adoption of electric vehicles for the purpose of sustainable transportation and presents a critical analysis in terms of the economics, technology, and environmental perspectives of electric vehicles. The chapters cover the benefits and limitations of electric vehicles, techno-economic feasibility of the technologies being developed, and the impact this has on society. Specific points of discussion include electric vehicle architecture, wireless power transfer, battery management, and renewable resources. This book is of interest for individuals in the automotive sector and allied industries, policymakers, practitioners, engineers, technicians, researchers, academicians, and students looking for updated information on the technology, economics, policy, and environmental aspects of electric vehicles.

Download or read book Clean Transport in India written by Shri Prakash and published by The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI). This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As extreme weather events – the heat wave in Delhi in May 2022 and the unusually heavy rains in September 2022 – become more frequent, fulfilling the predictions of climate change experts, reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases that drive the climate change becomes increasingly urgent. Next to coal-fired power stations and the industrial sector, it is transport that accounts for a major share in these emissions, which makes Clean Transport in India a particularly timely publication. The book not only presents all the relevant statistics but, more important, explains the implications of those numbers and the interconnections between different facets of transport: for example, the greater number of vehicles on roads may seem to favour mobility but in fact makes roads more congested—and the congestion makes air pollution more severe, thereby aggravating its impact on health. At the same time, the book is not a prophet of doom but also touches upon electric vehicles, hydrogen fuel cells, drones, and even flying cars. Instead of fretting and fuming when you are caught in a traffic jam, read this book: it will not only calm you but, who knows, may inspire you to be a ‘green’ commuter. Contents: Foreword Introduction Environment, climate change, and transport Rising air pollution and impact on health Link between air pollution and transport Linking domestic strategies with global aims Transport infrastructure development Rail Road Air Port Mobility and transport Regulations Transport pricing Modal mix Types of vehicles Passenger mobility Modes of travel Freight transport Projected trends in freight traffic The COVID-19 pandemic and transport Sustainable transport Strategies for sustainable transport Rising fuel prices and sustainable transport Prioritizing sustainable transport Emerging challenges Unplanned city expansion Economy based on privately owned vehicles Congestion Inadequate public transport The problem of parking Fuel consumption and emissions Oil imports and energy security Unsafe mobility Absence of a unified transport authority The road ahead Commitments under the Paris Agreement Futuristic low-carbon transport solutions Future of transport Audience: Adults who are concerned about topical issues but lack the understanding to make sense of what they read or watch in the mass media Shelving: Climate, Sustainable Development
