In the FSR Insights of 16 of February, the editors Raphael J. Heffron and Maciej M. Sokołowski will join Lucila de Almeida, one of our hosts and contributor of the special issue, to discuss some of the papers that will be published in the Energy Policy.
Energy policies always have an impact on society, the climate, the economy, and international relations.
What happens when energy policy fail? How will we identify failure in energy policy? What makes the failure of energy policies? Why did the energy policies lead to bankruptcy? Could they be saved? What did not work? Who prevented success? What can we learn to make better decisions in the future?
These are just some of the matters which Guest Editors - Raphael J. Heffron and Maciej M. Sokolowski - raise in the Special Issue of the Energy Policy: When Energy Policy Fails: Impacts, Recovery & Managing Risk . The Special Issue offers insightful analyses on collapsed incentives, lost projects, mistakes, wrong paths, bad decisions, and lessons from the past based on policy failures in energy policymaking. In this context, it offers a global view of energy policy failure with contributions from across the world.
In the FSR Insights of 16 of February, the editors Raphael J. Heffron and Maciej M. Sokolowski will join Lucila de Almeida, one of our hosts and contributor of the special issue, to discuss some of the papers that will be published in the Energy Policy. Especially, they will discuss academic articles covering two aspects: the failure of policymakers to ensure energy justice, and the pitfalls of indicators based on the case study of the EU’s Retail Electricity Market Barrier Index.
