Lecture Notes in Energy
Volume 77
Lecture Notes in Energy (LNE) is a series that reports on new developments in the
study of energy: from science and engineering to the analysis of energy policy. The
series’ scope includes but is not limited to, renewable and green energy, nuclear,
fossil fuels and carbon capture, energy systems, energy storage and harvesting,
batteries and fuel cells, power systems, energy efficiency, energy in buildings,
energy policy, as well as energy-related topics in economics, management and
transportation. Books published in LNE are original and timely and bridge between
advanced textbooks and the forefront of research. Readers of LNE include
postgraduate students and non-specialist researchers wishing to gain an accessible
introduction to a field of research as well as professionals and researchers with a
need for an up-to-date reference book on a well-defined topic. The series publishes
single- and multi-authored volumes as well as advanced textbooks. ∗∗Indexed in
Scopus and EI Compendex∗∗ The Springer Energy board welcomes your book
proposal. Please get in touch with the series via Anthony Doyle, Executive Editor,

Preface and Acknowledgements
Energy and environmental prosperity are imperative for sustainable development.
At the same time, the economies of all countries, and particularly of the developed
countries, are dependent on secure supplies of energy. The book addresses the vital
and interwoven areas of energy, environment, and economy in the crucial sustain-
ability perspective. It provides comprehensive coverage of the crucial topics cover-
ing fundamental theoretical and technical details, empirical data, and case studies
taking into account local and international perspectives. The critical sustainability
challenges and emerging response and trends especially depleting fossil fuel
reserves, global warming and climate change, new energy trends and technologies,
and international and global policies and protocols are covered.
The primary aim of this book is to disseminate the roles and applications of vari-
ous theoretical, modeling, and empirical approaches in dealing with the dynamics
of energy, environment, and economy in an integrated manner. The key focus is
better energy policy decision making under the constraints of energy–environment–
economy interactions and sustainability perspective. This edited book is a compila-
tion of chapters contributed by experts in the broader fields of energy, environment,
economy, and sustainable development. The book has drawn a fine representation
balance in terms of the three key subject areas: energy, environment and economy.
It has also attracted contributions from authors bringing together a great deal of
experiential diversity – they have come from countries in Australia, Europe, Middle
East, South Asia, North America, and South America. The contributions thus offer
a reflection of the respective topics not only from the perspectives of developed and
developing nations but also of the economies in transition. The edited book has
involved a rigorous review process of the received chapters.
This book contains five parts. Part I, “An Introduction: Dynamics of Energy,
Environment, and Economy; A Sustainability Perspective,” has one chapter. It pres-
ents an overview of all the chapters of this book. Part II of the book, “Dynamics of
Energy and Economy,” consists of four chapters including (i) The Framework of
Renewable Energy Systems and Trends to Promote the Energy Security of the State
of Baja California, (ii) Importance of Energy for Industries and Role of The Energy
Sector in Turkey’s Economy, (iii) Impacts of Electricity Subsidies Policy on Energy

Transition, and (iv) ZEMCH Strategic Framework for Low Carbon Solutions in
Sustainable Housing Delivery. Part III, “Dynamics of Energy and Environments,”
showcases four unique contributions addressing the challenges of energy–environ-
ment dynamics: (i) Role of Hybrid Energy System in Reducing the Effects of Climate,
(ii) Sustainable Solar Energy, (iii) Coupling Behavior-based Intervention with Pro-
environmentalism? The Dynamics of Energy Usage, Crisis, and its Conservation,
and (iv) Dynamics of the Wind-power Supply Chain to Reduce Emissions: How it
Affects Transmission Congestion? Part IV, “Dynamics of Energy Policy and Climate
Change,” of this book highlights the role of institutions, energy policies, energy use-
behavior, and increasing demand for a better understanding of climate change and
energy policy dynamics in a sustainability context. In this category, we have five
chapters: (i) Climate Change and Energy Policies: European Union-Scale Approach
to a Global Problem, (ii) The Role of Institutions in Energy Policy and Environmental
Protection, (iii) Access and Limitations to Clean Energy Use in Nigeria, (iv) The
Nexus of Climate Change and Increasing Demand for Energy: A Policy Deliberation
from the Canadian Context, and (v) Energy Policy and Climate Change. The final
part V, “Finale,” overviews the key insights and learning points as well as the future
research possibilities contained in this book in the chapter “Conclusions and Future
Research.”
We are grateful to the authors of the various chapters for their contributions. It
had been a lengthy process from the initial long abstracts to developing the full
chapters and then revising them in the light of reviewers’ comments. We sincerely
acknowledge the authors’ willingness to go through this process. We also acknowl-
edge the work and knowledge of the members of our review panel.
Thanks to all the people at Springer US, especially Christopher, HoYing, and
Clement with whom we corresponded for advice and facilitation in the production
of this book. We wish to record our thanks to Mrs. R. Santhamurthy (SPi Technologies
India Private Ltd.) who prepared a camera-ready copy of the manuscript with her
usual professionalism, we wish to record our thanks to her. We are grateful to our
families for their sacrifice, support, and prayers all along.
Finally, the first author would like the acknowledge the financial support pro-
vided by the Deanship of Research at King Fahd University of Petroleum and
Minerals (KFUPM) for funding this through project No. BW191001.
