  • Analysis of sensitivity of the Environmental Value of wind power
    Energy Procedia, 2011
    Co-Authors: Li Hongze, Guo Sen, Wang Bao
    Abstract:

    Abstract The wind can be one kind of clean renewable energy, and plays an important role in this short-energy time. To analysis of sensitivity of the Environmental Value of wind power, firstly calculates the emission rate of the majority pollutants using the theory of Environmental Value, secondly calculates the Environmental Value of the majority pollutants, and then calculates the Environmental Value of wind power on the basis of 500MW thermal power plant, and the result is 0.4494675 Yuan/KWh, far higher for nature gas. In the last, sensitive the environm ental Value of wind power. The result shows that the sensitivity of the Environmental Value of CO2 to the Environmental Value of wind power is dominant, while other pollutants are less sensitive to the Environmental Value of wind power, and comparing to other powers, the Environmental Value of wind power is remarkable.

  • Environmental Value transfer: state of the art and future prospects
    Ecological Economics, 2000
    Co-Authors: Roy Brouwer
    Abstract:

    Abstract The main objectives of the paper are to (1) give an overview of the state of the art of Environmental Value transfer, (2) discuss its prospects and potential role in CBA as a decision-support tool, and (3) provide further guidelines for proper use and application. Environmental Value or benefit transfer is a technique in which the results of studies on monetary Environmental valuation are applied to new policy contexts. The technique is controversial, not least because of academic and political reservations over the usefulness and technical feasibility of economic valuation tools to demonstrate the importance of Environmental Values in project or programme appraisals. Testing of Environmental Value transfer so far has been unable to validate the practice. Taking into account the conditions set out in the literature for valid and reliable Value transfer, most transfers appear to result in substantial transfer errors. This paper discusses why and addresses the question of which factors may have been overlooked. It is argued that the problem is much more fundamental than previously acknowledged. Strict guidelines in terms of quantitative adjustment mechanisms to valid Value transfer are meaningless if the more fundamental issue of differences in the very nature of the Values elicited is not addressed at the same time.

  • Sustainable development: The promise and perils of roads
    Nature, 2014
    Co-Authors: Stephen G. Perz
    Abstract:

    A global map of the potential economic benefits of roads together with the Environmental damage they can inflict provides a planning tool for sustainable development. See Letter p.229 As the human population and resource use continue to increase, so does the need for transport. Roads bring socioeconomic benefits such as facilitating agricultural production, but road building is often carried out haphazardly, and much of the expected expansion in roads will occur in ecologically important areas. More careful planning could be critical to mitigating its potentially detrimental Environmental impacts. This study combines data on the predicted socioeconomic benefits of new roads with measures of Environmental Value across the world, creating a 'global roadmap' of the balance between human and Environmental aspects of road-building. The authors identify areas where road-building can be encouraged, where it should be avoided, and where conflicts of interest will require careful decision-making.
