Contents:
Lessons from the international experience Aoife Brophy Haney, Tooraj Jamasb, Laura M. Platchkov and Michael G. Pollitt; 15. Electricity distribution networks: investment and regulation, and uncertain demand Tooraj Jamasb and Cristiano Marantes; 16. The potential impact of policy and legislation on the energy demands of UK buildings and implications for the electrical network Joe A. Clarke, Jun Hong, Cameron M. Johnstone, Jae Min Kim and Paul G. Tuohy; 17. The ADDRESS European project: a large-scale R and D initiative for the development of active demand François Bouffard, Re;gine Belhomme, Alioune Diop, Maria Sebastian-Viana, Cherry Yuen, Hannah Devine-Wright, Pedro Linares, Ramón Cerero Real De Asua and Giovanni Valtorta; 18. Daylight saving, electricity demand and emissions: the British case Yu-Foong Chong, Elizabeth Garnsey, Simon Hill and Fre;de;ric Desobry; 19. Concluding reflections on future active networks and demand side Tooraj Jamasb and Michael G. Pollitt; Index.
Summary: What will electricity and heat demand look like in a low-carbon world? Ambitious environmental targets will modify the shape of the electricity sector in the twenty-first century. 'Smart' technologies and demand-side management will be some of the key features of the future of electricity systems in a low-carbon world. Meanwhile, the social and behavioural dimensions will complement and interact with new technologies and policies. Electricity demand in the future will increasingly be tied up with the demand for heat and for transport. The Future of Electricity Demand looks into the features of the future electricity demand in light of the challenges posed by climate change. Written by a team of leading academics and industry experts, the book investigates the economics, technology, social aspects, and policies and regulations which are likely to characterize energy demand in a low-carbon world. It provides a comprehensive and analytical perspective on the future of electricity demand.
