1. IEA: www.iea.org/about/ourmission/
国际能源署(International Energy Agency--IEA)是石油消费国政府间的经济联合组织。总部设在法国巴黎。其宗旨是协调成员的能源政策,发展石油供应方面的自给能力,共同采取节约石油需求的措施,加强长期合作以减少对石油进口的依赖,提供石油市场情报,拟订石油消费计划,石油发生短缺时按计划分享石油,以及促进它与石油生产国和其他石油消费国的关系等。
2. Wildpoldsried: 德国巴伐利亚州的一个市政。

4. Marginal Cost—边际成本
指多生产一单位的产品所增加的成本,例如多生产一双鞋而需要的皮料和劳动力。边际成本与诸如厂房和机器等固定成本不同,后者无论生产多少产品都不会改变。也称增量成本(Incremental Cost)。
Day2:思维简图
我的作业我的逻辑思路:一可再生能源为中心词,按照其优点,现状、和发展缺点划分层次。
安妮示范安妮的逻辑思路:
1.选择用不变的对象----政府;新能源生产者;燃油生产者;消费者来解释它们之间的相互关系。
2.安妮的导图很清晰地解析它们之间相爱相杀的情史哈哈哈~
Day3: 总结
安妮问题引导:
1.可再生能源对现有电力市场带来的经济挑战的前因后果?
2.如何才能使得资本愿意流入新能源开发,从而保证新旧转型的彻底完成?
【中文概要】:在人们认为世界范围内可再生能源发展形势一片大好时,《经济学人》最新的一篇文章指出:可再生能源发展已经陷入了一个恶性循环的怪圈。可再生能源凭借其污染小,边际成本低(批发价格低)的优点迅速挤进电力市场行业,占用更高的政府扶持份额和投资份额,传统能源企业市场份额减少,被迫降价,加之投资的减少,发展低迷;另一方面,能源生产过剩,可再生能源本身的不稳定因素,以及受到各国经济实力的限制,可再生能源即将陷入投资中断的尴尬境地(已有先例存在)。而消费者成了最终的买单者。那么,该如何做才可以保证新旧能源的成功转型呢?我在另一篇文章中得到了些许答案:针对可再生能源的不稳定因素状况,我们可以采用数字化等智能化手段(数字化是学习了Uber共享经济的原理)通过存储共享,提高能源利用率;针对发电本身的问题:可以通过模块式发电提高运输效率;针对可再生能源价格过高的担忧,电力市场可以根据天气状况实时调整;另外,政府一方面鼓励能源开发的同时,也要给那些为减少能源使用的人提供适当奖励;最难的问题,其实还是掌握市场供求关系的变化。
笃学奖--Renewable Energy-A16924—甘比精读两个问题得到同学的解答:
1.为什么说政府给可再生能源的补助越多,给传统的电力厂的补助也越多?
可再生能源收到的补助越多,生产的电力越多,供大于求,电力价格也就越低。没有人愿意投资,传统的电力厂经营的成本也就越高,但是可再生能源不稳定,又不能脱离传统的电力厂发电,所以政府就要给更多的补助。
2.消费者为什么成了最终的受害者?
电网改造也好,更新也罢,本质上都是发电成本的上升,这些最后都会通过电价提高来抹平成本。而新能源公司压缩利润是为了和同行打价格战,抢占市场。
