Gas Market Lessons from the 2022-2023 Energy Crisis Introduction
…in crisis periods.Third, the crisis highlighted the role of infrastructure redundancy in managing supply disruptions effectively. Infrastructure remains the backbone of liquid and flexible energy markets, and in the post-crisis market environment energy infrastructure needs are likely to be greater to support security of supply in a more fragile gas market context. Evaluating the associated benefits and costs will be key in mobilising the right energy infrastructure investments and capitalising on their redundancy value in strengthening preparedness for future market shocks.Fourth, the supply shock showed that taking a strategic approach to building supply portfolios, including the use…

Energy Efficiency 2024 How is the dumping of inefficient equipment affecting efficiency progress?
…inefficiency of these products leads to higher energy bills for consumers and drives up energy demand, straining power systems and requiring new investment in generation capacity. As a result, critical resources are diverted from vital sectors such as health and education, hampering socio-economic development in low-income countries. Outdated used equipment is flooding markets in lower-income countries, leading to a dominance of inefficient appliances Every year large quantities of used equipment are exported to countries and regions with weaker regulatory frameworks, especially to the sub-Saharan Africa region. These appliances would be in large part disposed of as…
