Notes	Energy-Based Economic Development: Definition of the Field -- A History of Energy-Based Economic Development -- Energy-Based Economic Development Activities and Approaches -- Case Study Review: What We Have Learned from Examples of Current and Recent Practice -- ARRA Funding Successes and Limitations -- Experiences from the Field: Survey Results from Implementing Organizations -- Energy-Based Economic Development in an International Context: Energy Service Provision Energy is becoming a prominent driver of economic development. Each year, billions of dollars are invested around the world by the public and private sectors in low-emissions energy development and energy efficiency planning. Energy-based economic development (EBED) is a domain that seizes the opportunities inherent in clean energy development to drive innovation and generate economic growth. Energy-based economic development: How clean energy can drive development and stimulate economic growth delivers working definitions, common approaches, descriptions of supportive policy mechanisms, and suggested metrics for evaluation. The book offers a unified framework for EBED that is supported by examples and leaves readers better equipped to design, plan, and implement EBED initiatives. Case studies illustrate how national and subnational initiatives adopt to a locale’s energy asset base, energy and economic development needs, and the context in which the initiative operates. Descriptions of the energy projects supported by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act offer insights about what worked and what did not and suggest ways in which governments can be better prepared to manage EBED projects in the future. This book provides the tools necessary to work toward simultaneous energy and economic development goals and facilitates discussion for an advanced policy agenda of energy efficiency, energy diversification, innovation-led economic growth, and job creation HTTP:URL=https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-6341-1
