Energy economics studies forces that lead economic agents – firms, individuals, governments – to
supply energy resources, to convert those resources into other useful energy forms, to transport
them to the users, to use them, and to dispose of the residuals. It studies roles of alternative market
and regulatory structures on these activities, economic distributional impacts, and environmental
consequences. It studies economically efficient provision and use of energy commodities and
resources and factors that lead away from economic efficiency.
They have differing physical forms. Crude oil, most refined petroleum
products, and water are liquids. Of water includes available energy only through its motion. Coal,
most biomass, and uranium are solids. Natural gas and wind are in gases, with wind including
available energy based only on its movement. Geothermal energy is available through hot liquids
(normally water) or solids (subterranean rock formations). Solar radiation is a pure form of energy.
Electricity consists of electrons moving under an electrical potential.
→To make it sustainable, market based, and still affordable (1990 – now)
→Kepastian → harga/biaya tetap
→Tersedia di pasar → economic of scale
→Tetap terjangkau → tetap digunakan masyarakat luas
• Coal (security) and gas (cleanliness) will continue to dominate heat and power
• Capture and storage (H2 power) practiced if CO2 concern is to be addressed
• Nuclear (energy security, CO2) will be a fixed, if not growing, fraction of the mix
• Renewables will find some application but will remain a small fraction of the total
• Advanced solar a wildcard
• CO2 emissions (and concentrations) continue to rise absent dramatic global action
Resource Supplies: Doom or Boom?
• Population increased from 1 to 7 billion
• Standard of living is 12 times higher
• Consumption of resources is much higher
Population Growth
• Thomas Malthus (1798) predictions
• Replacement rate
• Total fertility rate
• Modernization
• Death rates fall
• Fertility rate falls below replacement rate
Resource Consumption Per Person
• Increasing commodity demand
• Population growth
• Rising consumption per person
• Commodity supply has risen faster
than demand
• Commodity prices are falling
Resource Consumption Per Person
• Will resource supplies be
sustainable in the future?
• Prospects are hopeful
• Demand for resources will
reach a peak and decline with
falling birthrates
• Resource consumption per
capita leveled off or is
decreasing
LO1
Resource Consumption Per Person
• Leveled off in the
developed countries
• Demand will increase
in growing countries
• Challenge is to move
resource supplies from
their place of origin to
places of need

LO2
Efficient Electricity Use
• The Challenge: Highly
Variable Demand
• Variations in fixed
costs
• Daily variations in
demand
• Different types of
generation
technology
LO2
Running Out of Energy?
• No likelihood of running
out of energy
• Running out of cheap
energy
• Multiple sources of
supply
• Environmental impacts

LO3
Natural Resource Economics
• Policies for extracting resources to maximize net benefits
• Present vs. future consumption
• Present value
• Renewables vs. Nonrenewables
• Renewable natural resources
• Nonrenewable natural resources
• Optimal Resource Management
• Extraction strategy to maximize stream of profits
• User cost
• Sell today, cannot sell in the future
• Higher expected demand encourages less extraction today
• Property rights
