Abstract

Energy is a vital element in sustaining our modern society but the future of energy is volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous; especially when facing a continuous drive to ensure a sustained and equitable access as well as mounting pressures to reduce its emissions. Traditional approaches in developing energy technologies have always been in isolation with distinct and unique contexts. However, we cannot afford to work in silos any longer. Future energy systems and their relationship with the society and the environment will have to be conceived, designed, developed, commissioned, and operated alongside and within contemporary geo-political, ethical, and socio-economic contexts. This has posed an unprecedented volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA), where systemic and holistic approaches are often warranted. This book aims to focus on the VUCA of addressing the future of energy and environment by considering contemporary issues and insights from diverse contexts, viewed as a system, and anchored upon emerging and smart energy technologies.

Abstract

About two-fifths of the developing world lacked access to clean cooking energy services in 2020. Bottled gas is a clean cooking fuel but is subject to large price volatility and not affordable for many. Electricity is safe and convenient but may not be reliable or affordable. Densified wood pellets in advanced combustion stoves offer an alternative but require careful handling to achieve clean combustion. This brief reviews the pros and cons of these predominant forms of clean cooking energy, focusing on bottled gas.

Abstract

This Country Program Evaluation (CPE) assesses the development effectiveness of the World Bank Group's engagement with Bangladesh during the past decade (fiscal year [FY]11-20) and provides lessons to inform the next Bank Group supported strategy with Bangladesh and to countries facing similar challenges. The Bank Group made important contributions over the past decade to help Bangladesh address several of its development challenges. Most notable include increasing power generation capacity, improving access to clean energy, all season roads, primary and secondary education, reducing child and maternal mortality and improving financial inclusion. However, achievements fell short in several areas, including insufficient investment in data and measurement particularly on learning outcomes and limited progress on regional connectivity. In other areas, domestic vested interests prevailed resulting in little progress in improving the business environment, natural resource management, banking reform and tariff reform. Bank Group support adapted in response to changing circumstances following the Padma Bridge cancellation by reallocating resources to sectors in which the Bank Group had more traction and a long-standing history of effective engagement. However, rising fiscal vulnerabilities received insufficient attention. Despite a deteriorating trend in institutional quality and economic management and declining core IDA allocation, the Bank Group significantly increased financing to Bangladesh, including through IDA's Scale Up Facility. Key lessons include: (i) Rebalancing the portfolio in the face of a difficult political economy helped the Bank Group remain relevant in Bangladesh; (ii) Where reform is deemed critical to sustain development progress but government commitment is weak or absent, continued targeted analysis of key development constraints can help prepare the ground for future action when a window of opportunity presents itself; (iii) Measuring improvements in the quality of education requires deliberate and ongoing investment in data collection; (iv) Increasing overall IDA financing in the context of deteriorating CPIA rating raises a question about the significance that IDA assigns to measures of institutional quality and governance; (v) Given underlying concerns with data quality and coverage, the World Bank might have been more qualified in its public statements about the quality of the macroeconomic framework; and (vi) Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP) arrangements between the World Bank and the IMF constrain the ability of the World Bank to provide comprehensive and timely assessments of financial sector vulnerabilities in nonsystematically important economies.

Abstract

Настоящият доклад разглежда политиките за енергийна устойчивост в България и ЕС, основните постижения и предизвикателства в прилагането им и анализира ключови въпроси за устойчивото развитие на България. Докладът съдържа обобщение на необходимите политики за преход към устойчиво развитие в България и предлага препоръки за подобряване на управлението на българския зелен енергиен сектор. Постигането на сигурност, устойчивост и конкурентоспособност на енергийния сектор е сериозно предизвикателство за съюз от 27 държави, особено като се има предвид, че гарантирането на сигурността на предлагането на енергия традиционно е въпрос от национален характер. В стремежа си да реализират целите в областта на климатичните промени и енергетиката през последното десетилетие европейските правителства прибягват до различни бързи решения като използване на ядрена енергия или заместване на въглищата с газ, като по този начин натоварват бъдещите поколения със задачата да се справят с ядрените отпадъци и нарастващата енергийна зависимост от Русия. Две големи събития - газовата криза от януари 2009 г. и атомната катастрофа през март 2011 г. - промениха нагласите и възродиха дебата за начините за постигане на енергийна сигурност и стабилност на предлагането в Европа.
