Energy Economics, Finance, and Management in Developing and Emerging Economies is a guide to the specialised needs of emerging economies in the quest for a successful energy transition. This book begins with a close examination of energy economic policy and its impact on energy security, efficiency, sources, and technology across a range of developing and emerging countries. This includes an analysis of tactics and tools such as the Environmental Kuznats Curve, fuel subsidy reforms, the spatial dynamics model and impact of social capital, and the energy-growth nexus. Part II focuses on opportunities and case studies in the financial industry, including studies on exchanges rates, regulations regarding disclosure, and effects on firm performance. Finally, Part II examines the policy options for energy management from a market and demand-response perspective. Integrating these three critical aspects of the energy transition, Energy Economics, Finance, and Management in Developing and Emerging Economies fills an essential need for financial policy and economic strategy to support emerging economies through a successful and sustainable energy transition.
