本文认为,在英国的地方当局的战略能源机构的发展,并期待在感知的需要,和可能的作用,这样一个机构。从历史上看,能源供应和管理通常不是英国地方当局的战略重点。然而,能源方面的考虑隐含在地方当局的主要责任中,如运输、废物管理、规划和提供住房服务。此外,英国中央政府最近的政策支持转向地方主义,并为低碳能源生产提供激励措施。进行了一项研究,以评估利兹市理事会建立一个战略机构以执行城市一级能源决策的潜力(包括预期效益和实际交付能力)。我们研究了一系列主要利益相关者的感知利益,使用的数据来自对整个城市负责低碳和可再生能源项目的管理人员的采访。通过参与观察,我们探讨了地方当局提供战略能源机构的能力,我们简要地研究了可能的交付形式。我们的结论与国家政策的建议,使战略能源机构在英国地方政府的发展。
This paper considers the development of a strategic energy body in a local authority in the UK and looks at the perceived need for, and possible roles of, such a body. Historically, energy provision and management has not usually been a strategic priority for UK local authorities. Yet energy considerations are implicit in key local authority responsibilities such as transport, waste management, planning, and the provision of housing services. In addition, recent UK central government policies support the move to localism and provide incentives for low-carbon energy generation. A study was undertaken to assess the potential (including both the perceived benefits and actual capacity to deliver) for Leeds City Council to develop a strategic body to execute delivery of city-level energy decision-making. We examine the perceived benefits to a range of main stakeholders, using data drawn from interviews with managers responsible for low-carbon and renewable energy projects across the city. Through participant observation we explore the capacity of a local authority to deliver a strategic energy body, and we briefly examine the possible forms of delivery. We conclude with recommendations for national policy that would enable the development of strategic energy bodies across local governments in the UK.
