Economic Theories on Energy Policies - Dictionary of Arguments

Mause I 432
Energy Policy/Economic Theory: Apart from the regulatory framework, the discussion on energy policy focuses on possible market failures in the context of energy and measures to correct them, such as in the context of
(i) natural monopolies in the field of grid-bound energy sources,
(ii) external effects of air pollutants and CO2,
(iii) asymmetric information in energy efficiency investments or
(iv) learning effects in renewable energies. The complexity of these questions (1).
State interventions: are usually justified by the natural monopoly in the case of interventions in the energy supply.
>Natural Monopolies/Neoclassical Economics.
Vs: this is no longer seen as such today. Cf. Ströbele et al. 2012 p. 333 (2)
