Tabitha Lasley er journalist og midt i trediverne, da hun efter et kaotisk brud tager til Aberdeen i Skotland. Hun har altid været fascineret af de barske mænd fra boreplatformene, der befolker byens gader og barer, og hun beslutter sig for at interviewe dem for at finde ud af, hvordan mænd er uden kvinder i nærheden. Men allerede første aften smider hun alle journalistiske principper overbord og forelsker sig hovedkulds i den første mand, hun interviewer. Gennem de næste seks måneder interviewer hun mere end 100 mænd fra boreplatformene om deres tanker om penge, kvinder og klasse, alt imens hendes eget liv spinder mere og mere ude af kontrol i et på alle måder eksplosivt miljø. Havtilstand er en autobiografisk roman om olieboreplatforme og de mænd, der arbejder på dem. På en gang kærlighedshistorie og en dybt personlig udforskning af maskulinitet, klasse og kvindeligt begær.

This book focuses on the current situation of two technologies for electricity production from renewable energy sources, wind and solar photovoltaic energy, analysing and describing both technologies in detail.Four regions of the world, with distinct energy markets and conditions, are explored. Together, the USA, Europe, China and Japan represent one third of the world¿s population and occupy 25% of the planet, therefore offering a representation of a global picture. In each of these regions, the development of the solar and wind energy is examined, and the economic implications are described.

Decarbonization through optimized energy flows. In this book you will learn how a significant reduction in climate changing greenhouse gas emissions can be achieved through systemic optimization of our energy systems. The authors clearly demonstrate how energy-intensive processes can be optimized flexibly by using technology-neutral simulation methods to ensure that significantly fewer greenhouse gases are emitted.Such field-tested, data-based energy models described in this publication prove that "e;digital decarbonization"e; enables an economy that releases significantly fewer climate changing emissions while maintaining its production output. This is a promising message in view of ongoing climate change.

Hydrogen technologies are key for achieving a carbon-neutral economy; these offer solutions for the further expansion of renewable energy supplies, climate-neutral industry processes and sustainable mobility. For Germany and Europe alike, they present an opportunity to maintain industrial value creation, expand export opportunities and secure technological sovereignty. In this book, the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft presents the knowledge and experience it has acquired along the entire value chain of the hydrogen economy. This encompasses materials and system development, production, system upscaling, energy sector applications, emission-intensive industry processes and mobility, as well as the practical, overarching issues of safety, standardization and service life.

This book is at the center of the UN goals of combining environment and economic development with new technologies.First, sustainability in mining is defined as a process of transformation. This is followed by an outlook on the aspects of safety, economy, environmental impact and digital transformation. The book includes a discussion of new aspects such as the problem of liability for mining damages regarding climate change in Peru. Specific technical issues in smart mining are covered as well, such as underground localization systems based on ultra-wide band radio and inertial navigation, or the use of thermal imaging for roof crack detection. In addition, the characterization of material flows, subsurface hydrogen-storage systems and the prediction of mining induced subsidence and uplift are dealt with.The Sustainable Smart Mining and Energy Yearbook is not only aimed at researchers professionals, but at all who want to get an overview of the important technical and legal topics in this field.

This Open Access Brief presents the KAPSARC Global Energy Macroeconometric Model (KGEMM). KGEMM is a policy analysis tool for examining the impacts of domestic policy measures and global economic and energy shocks on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The model has eight blocks (real sector, fiscal, monetary, external sector, price, labor and wages, energy, population, and age cohorts) that interact with each other to represent the Kingdom¿s macroeconomy and energy linkages. It captures New Keynesian demand-side features anchored to medium-run equilibrium and long-run aggregate supply. It applies a cointegration and equilibrium correction modeling (ECM) methodology to time series data to estimate the model¿s behavioral equations in the framework of Autometrics, a general-to-specific econometric modeling strategy. Hence, the model combines ¿theory-driven¿ approach with ¿data-driven¿ approach.The Brief begins with an introduction to the theoretical framework of the model and the KGEMM methodology and then walks the reader through the structure of the model and its behavioral equations. The book closes with simulations showing the application of the model. Providing a detailed introduction to a cutting-edge, robust predictive model, this Brief will be of great use to researchers and policymakers interested in macroeconomics, energy economics, econometrics, and more specifically, the economy of Saudi Arabia.

Vorstellungen von der Zukunft bestimmen das menschliche Handeln. In energiewirtschaftlichen Fragen sind solche Antizipationen besonders relevant: Staaten beschließen Förderprogramme, Unternehmen errichten Kraftwerke, Privatpersonen füllen ihre Öltanks oder ersetzen sie durch Wärmepumpen ¿ stets mit Blick auf ein Morgen, der mitunter trügerisch ist. Kontrovers diskutiert wird, ob es ein Wissen von der Zukunft überhaupt geben und inwieweit es Gegenstand der Wissenschaft sein kann. Die Beiträge dieses Bandes untersuchen Möglichkeit, Methoden und Geltung von Zukunftsentwürfen aus philosophischer, historischer, sozial-, literatur- und medienwissenschaftlicher Perspektive.

Electricity Decentralization in the European Union: Towards Zero Carbon and Energy Transition, Second Edition examines progress in decentralization across the European Union, with each chapter focusing on developments and innovations in a specific country. Sections provide an overview of the current role and state of smart grids, the conceptualization of energy transition, and specific cases across all EU states. Across the chapters, regulatory frameworks are assessed to identify to what extent it is conducive to decentralization, with specific outcomes of decentralization covered in detail, including deployment of smart grids and meters, demand response, electric vehicles, and storage. The book highlights how specific EU member states are progressing towards deployment of these tools and technologies, along with the specific needs and regulatory barriers in each and recommendations for how regulation can be more encouraging. In addition, electricity interconnections in the EU are considered as a vital step towards decentralization in order to boost energy security and energy efficiency. Finally, the book includes a detailed examination of data protection concerns that arise from the advent of new technologies that collect personal information, such as smart grids, assessing current regulation on data protection and identifying areas for improvement, as well as innovative finance options for sustainable energy.

The Future of Decentralized Electricity Distribution Networks assesses the evolution of the services delivered by the distribution network as demands placed on it proliferates from distributed, self-generating, power storing and power sharing ‿consumers‿ ‿ which Sioshansi terms ‿prosumagers‿. The work outlines the processes by which passive and homogeneous electricity consumers become prosumers and prosumagers, the nature of their service needs, and dependence on the services delivered by the distribution network diverges. Contributors assess how consumers are discovering and exercising options to migrate away from total reliance on upstream generators to produce electricity and on the delivery network for its transmission. As they do so, the "utilities" ‿ be they distributors or retailers ‿ must rethink the traditional utility business model. How will they find sufficient revenues to cover their fixed and variable costs as volumetric consumption declines when some consumers become prosumers ‿ or go a step further and become prosumagers? This work argues that new service, business models and new methods for collecting sufficient revenues to maintain the network are mandatory for the survival of modern utilities.
