Des coûts sous-estimés, des provisions peu sécurisées: les contribuables risquent fort d'assumer les impairs d'EDF.

UK business lobby group says EU energy rules destroying jobs
14 AUGUST 2014
European Union energy rules have played a growing role in 'destroying British jobs', an independent UK business campaign group claims.

According to a report by Business for Britain entitled Energy policy and the EU - How a better deal could bring down the cost of energy and save jobs, rising energy costs threaten 1.5 million jobs in the energy intensive sector, with 363,000 being at high risk.

Manufacturers are now considering moving their operations to countries where energy is cheaper, risking “devastating” job losses in the UK, the report warns.

The group concludes that member states need the power to "block, amend or leave" EU laws.

It states that while the EU is not the only reason energy prices have risen, it has played a "significant and growing role in driving up the cost of energy" and consequently in "reducing Britain's industrial output and in destroying jobs." EU energy policies account for up to 9% of the cost of energy for the Energy Intensive Industries, according to the paper, and this could rise to just under 16% by 2030.

BfB acknowledges there is a good chance that the UK would have introduced similar policies had it been outside of the EU and that the UK has in some areas gone considerably further than the EU in introducing expensive policies. Despite this the UK “enjoys relatively low energy prices compared to many other EU countries”.

Matthew Elliott, chief executive of Business for Britain, said: “Renegotiation offers a once in a generation opportunity to get a better deal for British businesses and fix the EU's broken energy policy. It's time for the Commission to make good on its commitment to subsidiarity and allow member states to decide themselves how they meet EU emissions targets.”

But a Department of Energy and Climate Change spokeswoman said that low carbon policies were creating jobs in the UK.

“Our move to a low-carbon future is bringing thousands of jobs and investment to every corner of the country. Since 2010, £45 billion has been invested, and by 2020 we expect to see 250,000 jobs supported by the low carbon sector,” she said.

Report Details
Continual expansion of unconventional oil and gas development seen over the next decade – most notably in the US, but also around the globe – will necessitate steadily increasing proppant sales throughout the next ten years. In the US, proppant sales are primarily driven by the shale (tight) oil industry, since the natural gas price has decoupled from the crude oil price, making it more economical to develop shale (tight) oil. However, elsewhere in the world, proppant sales are underpinned by shale gas development as nations seek to exploit their unconventional gas resources for export purposes or for the sake of domestic energy security.
While most of the proppant spending will take place in the Americas, and in the United States in particular, annual growth rates for other nations and regions are more aggressive, as the unconventional oil and gas boon spreads across the glove over the next 10 years. Of particular note are the proppants markets in Argentina, throughout the Americas, and in China; these nations and regions have extensive unconventional oil and gas reserves and the global trend toward natural gas as the dominant feedstock will ensure significant political and fiscal capital is spent developing them. Strong global oil prices and, in the case of markets outside North America, gas prices, further justifies such development and spending.
Visiongain calculates that the global market for proppants will reach $8.85bn in 2014.

Anglesey tidal and wind power projects cancelled
A £70m tidal project off Anglesey that would have powered 10,000 homes and created dozens of jobs has been suspended. The 10MW Skerries Tidal Stream Array, which was to be Wales’s first commercial tidal energy farm, was approved by the Welsh Government in February 2013. This comes just weeks after the collapse of a large windfarm project, also off Anglesey

"Delendum est RTBA : analyse du blog de Benoît Praderie
Benoît Praderie est un chef d’entreprise du domaine de l’éolien, qui semble assez introduit dans les milieux institutionnels et fait, depuis des années, paraître des textes dans des médias plutôt de gauche, où il dénonce sans relâche les obstacles sans nombre que les instances politiques et administratives élèvent inlassablement contre le développement de l’éolien terrestre. Manifestement, ses alertes, comme les nôtres, semblent complètement dénuées d’effet, tout au contraire. Son texte, paru sur le site Mediapart le 31 juillet dernier (signalé dans notre revue de presse biodégradable), en apporte encore une preuve de plus : non seulement l’armée de l’air française n’a pas du tout l’intention de lâcher quoi que ce soit des zones de limitation et d’exclusion déjà inscrites dans la loi et la réglementation (RTBA, périmètres radar et… centrales nucléaires), qui couvrent 15% du territoire, mais elle a l’intention, subrepticement, d’y inclure tout un ensemble de zones où sont susceptibles de s’entraîner ses avions et hélicoptères. On atteindrait alors une superficie interdite de près de 60% du territoire national.

Autant dire que ce « putsch » à froid signe la mort de l’éolien terrestre. Contrairement à Benoît Praderie, dont on pourrait dire qu’il défend les intérêts de son business, je n’ai aucun intérêt dans le domaine : on parle ici de se priver de plusieurs dizaines de GW de puissance installée (l’équivalent de 10 à 20 tranches nucléaires), avec des coûts de production très raisonnables. Ce blog, peut-être paru au mauvais moment en pleines vacances, n’a rencontré aucun écho dans les médias, et seulement trois réponses, un mois plus tard.

Voilà une bonne nouvelle de plus pour nos grands groupes de l’énergie, qui vont pouvoir, tout à loisir, poursuivre, dans le cadre de la loi de transition énergétique, bien sûr, le « renouvellement » du parc nucléaire et la multiplication des éoliennes offshore : plus c’est cher, mieux ce sera pour eux. Tout sera mis en œuvre pour que le consommateur ait autant de choix que dans les stations-service d’autoroute.."
