	Energy economics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Energy economics is a subfield of economics that focuses on energy relationships as the foundation of all other relationships.
		It is a subfield of ecological economics in that it assumes that food chains in ecology are directly analogous to energy supply chains in human industries.
		The earliest energy economics was considered by some an offshoot of deep ecology movements - sharing the view that human beings can suffer population dieoff when an energy supply is exhausted.

	Energy economics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Some theories go much further in assuming that these relationships are decisive, much as Marxist economics assumes that capital (economics) ownership relationships are decisive, in determining human actions on the largest scales.
		Regardless of political stripe, energy economists are often involved in redefining political economy along the lines of ecology and thermodynamics and usually seek monetary reform to reflect the realities of energy inefficiency and waste in industrialized activities.
		The energy loss of this trial-and-error problem solving in nature is extreme - species emerge, blunder around, destroy entire ecosystems, die off, and are replaced - millions of years of this may lead to few or no improvements in the energy efficiency of a life form.

	Energy, by Robert A. Leone: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty
		Energy is not a single industry, but many industries tied into every facet of our economy, from transportation and manufacturing to home heating and lighting.
		Such discussions are dominated by concerns about energy depletion and the limits to economic growth, the belief of many in the need for regulation of energy markets, and the exaggeration or misstatement of the political hurdles that must be overcome to address the real challenges of energy use in a global economy.
		Advocates of a market-oriented energy policy believe that a major part of the increase in miles per gallon was due to gasoline prices that were much higher in the late seventies and early eighties than in the late sixties and early seventies.

	energy economics - extraction efficiency and costs, depletion of fossil fuels
		Economic efficiency is also badly distorted by market interferences, caused through government subsidies to industry and to end users.
		When an energy source that has an EROEI ratio of 4:1 is replaced with another, alternative, energy source which has an EROEI ratio of 2:1, twice as much gross energy has to be produced in order to reap the same net quantity of resulting usable energy.
		Or put another way, it costs you approximately the energy of 1 barrel of energy to extract 31 barrels, refine it, move it around the world and pump it into the tank of a vehicle.

	Wind Energy Manual - Wind Energy Economics
		Alternative energy sources like wind power provide new options and certain advantages, but to be truly competitive with conventional energy sources, they also must be economical.
		Although a wind turbine's energy savings may average out to be relatively constant from year to year, the value of that savings may actually increase annually.
		The availability of energy output from these systems must be compared to the time periods when energy is needed, both on a daily and seasonal basis.

		ne of the main benefits of wind energy is economic gain, both for individuals and for communities.
		There are basically three ways of investing in wind energy, each of which entails a different level of risk.
		The economic rewards of owning or leasing a turbine operation fall into three categories: 1) the electricity you don't have to pay for (because you're producing it yourself), 2) revenue you receive for the energy you produce, and 3) tax savings and federal and state incentives.

	The Economics of Nuclear Power
		Nuclear energy is, in many places, competitive with fossil fuel for electricity generation, despite relatively high capital costs and the need to internalise all waste disposal and decommissioning costs.
		With nuclear energy the risk of accidents is factored in along with high estimates of radiological impacts from mine tailings (waste management and decommissioning being already within the cost to the consumer).
		A detailed study of energy economics in Finland published in mid 2000 shows that nuclear energy would be the least-cost option for new generating capacity.

	Nuclear energy can't solve global warming / Other remedies 7 times more beneficial
		The objection is rooted in energy economics, hence the oversight.
		As Amory Lovins, the soft energy guru who directs the Rocky Mountain Institute, a Colorado think tank that advises corporations and governments on energy use, points out, "Nowhere (in the world) do market-driven utilities buy, or private investors finance, new nuclear plants." Only large government intervention keeps the nuclear option alive.
		Mainstream environmentalists do argue that energy efficiency, solar, wind and other renewable fuels are better weapons against global warming than nuclear is. But they will fare better if they go a step further and point out that embracing nuclear is not just unnecessary but a step backward.

	History and Analysis -Crude Oil Prices
		The higher prices faced by consumers would have resulted in lower rates of consumption: automobiles would have had higher mileage sooner, homes and commercial buildings would have been better insulated and improvements in industrial energy efficiency would have been greater than they were during this period.
		Nobody rushed to remove insulation from their homes or to replace energy efficient plants and equipment -- much of the reaction to the oil price increase of the end of the decade was permanent and would not respond to lower prices with increased demand for oil.
		The price increases came to a rapid end when the impact of the economic crisis in Asia was either ignored or severely underestimated by OPEC.
