An energy economic assessment model for application to energy assessments in developing countries is described. A simple comprehensive treatment of the energy sector is emphasized. The input output model is directly incorporated in the Energy system LP. The major supply sectors, as well as the major energy using industries, are modelled as capacity expansion problems, in which explicit distinction is made between capital stock and energy flows. For most developing countries the notion of energy supply curves is far fetched, since energy prices are set by planning authority, not established by market clearing equilibrium.

First Published in 1997, Naqvi provides a sophisticate model of Pakistan’s economy and study of energy pricing issues. For researching these areas , this book focuses on substitution possibilities between different energy products and between energy products and other inputs to production; production functions for the main energy producing and using industries ; the operation of price regulations for energy and other products ; rural-urban migration and income distribution and social welfare.

This open access book analyzes and seeks to consolidate the use of robust quantitative tools and qualitative methods for the design and assessment of energy and climate policies. In particular, it examines energy and climate policy performance and associated risks, as well as public acceptance and portfolio analysis in climate policy, and presents methods for evaluating the costs and benefits of flexible policy implementation as well as new framings for business and market actors. In turn, it discusses the development of alternative policy pathways and the identification of optimal switching points, drawing on concrete examples to do so. Lastly, it discusses climate change mitigation policies’ implications for the agricultural, food, building, transportation, service and manufacturing sectors.
