  • a review of russian ice breaking Tariff Policy on the northern sea route 1991 2014
    Polar Record, 2016
    Co-Authors: Daria Gritsenko, Tuomas Kiiski
    Abstract:

    In recent years, interest in the economic potential of the Arctic has been mounting, facilitated by environmental developments caused by climate change. In this context, the viability of shipping in Arctic waters is pivotal. This article explores the interplay of market considerations and the non-market drivers (climatic, navigational and political components) regarding the viability of the most prominent Arctic shipping route, the northern sea route (NSR), as a global shipping route. In particular, it concentrates on the Russian ice-breaking Tariff Policy on the NSR and presents a review from 1991, when the route was officially opened to international shipping, until 2014. The study integrates qualitative and longitudinal quantitative data related to NSR traffic, ice-breaking Tariffs and ice conditions. The paper shows that the ice-breaking fees play a key role for the functioning of the NSR by providing a source of funding for the ice-breaking fleet, which constitutes a basis for safe shipping. However, the development of the NSR into a competitive transcontinental shipping route is determined by a dynamic mixture of factors in which the Russian ice-breaking fee represents an additional cost item for shipping companies and shippers. It is argued that the development of ice-breaking Tariff Policy has been guided by structural changes in external factors consequently influencing the demand for ice-breaking services (a derivative of NSR demand), which limits the extent to which Tariff Policy influences the attractiveness of the NSR in a global context.

  • The optimization of Chinese power grid investment based on transmission and distribution Tariff Policy: A system dynamics approach
    Energy Policy, 2018
    Co-Authors: J. Jiao, R.j. Chen, H. Shu
    Abstract:

    Abstract Grid investment optimization is an effective method for solving the mismatch between investment demand and the investment capacity of power grids. China is carrying out a new round of power system reform, and the main content is to control the revenue of the power grid enterprise through the transmission and distribution Tariff Policy. Revenue control may make the investment capacity of the power grid enterprise appear even more insufficient than it is currently. This paper studies the influence of the transmission and distribution Tariff Policy on the cash flow of the power grid enterprise and establishes an investment optimization decision-making model for the corporation using system dynamics theory. Then, taking a city as an example to undertake an empirical analysis, the paper puts forward suggestions and Policy implications for the investment decision of the power grid enterprise after the reform of the electricity market.

  • overall review of renewable energy Tariff Policy in china evolution implementation problems and countermeasures
    Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2013
    Co-Authors: Zeng Ming, Liu Ximei, Li Na, Xue Song
    Abstract:

    The rapid growth of China's economy has accelerated its energy demand, which is becoming more urgent. It is essential to exploit renewable energy because of the limited conventional energy, high energy consumption and serious pollution. China will strengthen the development and utilization of wind, solar, biomass and other renewable energies in the future, which will reduce the level of carbon emissions. However, China's rapid growth in renewable energy, particularly wind, has been accompanied with some growing pains, and there is room for improving the legal framework to address these challenges. A reasonable renewable energy Tariff Policy has a pivotal role for changing China's current situation. This paper introduced the current development situation of renewable energy, analyzed the evolution and implementation effect of the renewable energy Tariff Policy and discussed the problems of the renewable energy Tariff Policy in China. On this basis, this article proposed feasibility Tariff Policy recommendations to solve the problems, which important theory significance and the practical application value.
