1. 1. Energy Policy Instruments Perspectives on their Choice, Combination and Evaluation

   Författare :Kerstin Åstrand; Miljö- och energisystem; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy systems; policy instrument choice; socio-technical systems; policy instrument combination; Energiforskning; Energy research; Samhällsvetenskaper; Social sciences; Sweden.; evaluation; Environmental technology; pollution control; Miljöteknik; wind energy policy; green certificate trading scheme; market creation; wind power; Public policy instruments; wind turbine development; kontroll av utsläpp; renewable energy; energy policy;

   Sammanfattning : Abstract The thesis aims at providing a better understanding of public policy instruments used in policy-making within the energy sector, particularly regarding their role in the change towards an increased use of renewable energy sources for generation of electricity. The research was guided by an underlying assumption that a markedly higher proportion of the energy generated from renewable sources can be considerably enhanced by use of policy instruments that support the development and the market creation of new, renewable energy technologies.

3. 2. Trafikpolitik och regional omvandling : Beslutsprocesserna om isbrytningen längs Norrlandskusten 1940-1975

   Författare :Martin Eriksson; Lena Andersson-Skog; Jan Ottosson; Thomas Pettersson; Lars Magnusson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; economic history; Sweden; Norrland; ice-breaker policy; regional interest groups; institutional analysis; corporatism; concertation; policy networks; Economic history; Ekonomisk historia; ekonomisk historia; Economic History;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to understand the decision-making processes concerning ice-breaking along the coast of Norrland, with the specific aim to analyse the activities of regional interest groups in the Norrland region and government agents at different administrative levels at the key stages of the decision-making processes: initiation, drafting and decision-making. The thesis also explores how institutional factors at different administrative levels affected the agents that were involved at those stages of the decision-making processes. LÄS MER

4. 3. Industrial energy efficiency improvement – the role of policy and evaluation

   Författare :Christian Stenqvist; Miljö- och energisystem; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cement.; Pulp and paper; Decarbonisation; EU ETS; Energy management; Voluntary Agreement; Evaluation; Policy; Industrial energy efficiency;

   Sammanfattning : At EU and to a varying degree at Member State (MS) level, industrial energy efficiency improvement (EEI) is considered an attractive means for reaching political objectives of different dimensions, not least environmental. For energy-intensive manufacturing industry in particular, EEI can lead to cost reductions, improved profitability and competitiveness. LÄS MER

5. 4. Life Cycle Thinking and Waste Policy : Between Science and Society

   Författare :David Lazarevic; Maria Malmström; Nils Brandt; Nicolas Buclet; Karel Mulder; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Life cycle thinking; life cycle assessment; waste policy; waste hierarchy; coordination; conventions; legitimacy;

   Sammanfattning : This study investigates the application of life cycle thinking (LCT) and life cycle assessment (LCA) in the field of waste management from perspectives based in the social sciences. LCT is explored through the theoretical construct of regimes, drawing theoretical resources from a combination of the ‘pragmatic turn’, the economics of conventions and transition theory. LÄS MER

7. 5. Macroeconomic Uncertainty and Exchange Rate Policy

   Författare :Erik Post; Nils Gottfries; Annika Alexius; Kai Leitemo; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Social sciences; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

   Sammanfattning : Essay 1 (with Annika Alexius) uses a structural VAR model to study the role of floating exchange rates for five "small open economies" with inflation targets. We show that only in Sweden and Canada does the nominal exchange rate behave in a stabilizing way. Most exchange rate movements are responses to non-fundamental shocks. LÄS MER
