Wyboista droga do globalnej transformacji energetycznej – wyzwania związane z rynkami uprawnień do emisji dwutlenku węgla

Abstracts

PL

W niniejszym artykule opracowano teoretyczne ramy oceny kluczowych czynników napędzających rynki uprawnień do emisji dwutlenku węgla, a więc dotyczące podejścia opartego na rynkach emisji dwutlenku węgla w globalnej transformacji energetyki. Opracowane ramy globalnej transformacji niskoemisyjnej energii (GLCET) są następnie stosowane do sześciu metaprzeglądów literatury, z wyjątkiem przeglądów literatury grup 1 i 2 (sekcja 2). Na podstawie tego metaprzeglądu w badaniu uwzględniono również kluczowe czynniki GLCET, a mianowicie karbonizację sektora energetycznego, stopniowe wycofywanie paliw kopalnych, bezpieczeństwo geopolityczne. Opierając się na technice MOSCOW, autor konkluduje, że karbonizacja energii elektrycznej jest bardzo ważna i krytyczna (MO), stopniowe wycofywanie zasobów kopalnych jest trudne, ale wymaga pewnych rozwiązań (S), a pozycjonowany na trzecim miejscu (W) wpływ bezpieczeństwa geopolitycznego na GLCET nie odznacza się ważnością. Głównym zaleceniem autora jest opracowanie ram badania jakościowego pozwalającego zrozumieć główne wyzwania globalnej transformacji energetycznej.

This study develops a theoretical framework to assess the key drivers of carbon markets, that is, carbon markets approach in the global energy transition. The developed Global Low Carbon Energy Transition (GLCET) framework is then applied to the six metareviews of the literature, with the exception of the literature reviews of Groups 1 and 2 (Section 2). Based on this metareview, the study also considers the key drivers of the GLCET, namely, DE carbonisation of the power sector, fossil fuel phase-out, geopolitical security. Based on the MOSCOW technique, the author concludes that DE carbonisation of electricity is very important and critical (MO), phasing out fossil resources is challenging but requires some solutions (S) and in third place (W) the impact of geopolitical security on GLCET is not very important. The author’s main recommendation is to develop a more qualitative framework to understand the main challenges of the global energy transition.
