Summary
What are the recent trends and prospects for investment in power generation? What are the main drivers and barriers? This book assesses these issues and gives special emphasis to the question of how uncertainties may affect investment decisions. Uncertainties on CO₂ constraints, on power plant licensing, on acceptability of nuclear power, on local opposition to any new energy infrastructure, on government support for specific generation technologies and on government policies on energy efficiency are particularly disturbing. Market liberalization can also be a key uncertainty, but this may be greatly reduced and deliver considerable benefits if liberalization is implemented whole-heartedly and backed by on-going government commitment.--Publisher's description.
