It discusses critical interventions in the optimizing decisions of economic agents to achieve a reliable and sustainable future.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eStudents learn about the conditions under which such interventions can improve societal welfare, building on the fundamental economic principle that optimal outcomes arise when coordination mechanisms function effectively.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe book explores key motivations and drivers behind energy transition policies, including the depletion of energy resources, energy security, environmental impacts of fossil fuel use, and the challenges of high and volatile energy prices. It provides detailed analyses of the efficiency, effectiveness, and distributional effects of various government policy measures, such as capacity mechanisms, energy taxation, renewable energy support schemes, and emissions trading systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to a societal and governmental perspective, the book discusses the roles of stakeholders within energy systems – such as producers, grid operators and consumers, as well stakeholders within organizations—such as shareholders, employees, and customers—in driving the energy transition. While grounded in economic principles, it integrates insights from other disciplines, including engineering, law, and social sciences, to provide a holistic understanding of energy systems and their transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for students and scholars, this book equips readers with the knowledge and tools to understand the economic principles underpinning a reliable and sustainable energy future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMachiel Mulder\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Professor of Energy Economics at the Faculty of Economics and Business at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands.
