International Regimes for Energy: Finding the Right Level for Policyabout the consequences of using those resources, particularly their contribution to climate change. Yet the ability of energy policy makers to address these problems faces major challenges. This is partly because the energy economy is the aggregate outcome of the choices of millions of energy consum

Distributed Generation: Transforming the Electricity Networkurity. Despite increasing interest in distributed generation (DG) its deployment has been slow so far in many industrialised countries, with some notable exceptions such as Denmark and the Netherlands. In most industrialised countries DG is seen, at best, as a complement to frameworks of centralised
