International Association for Energy Economics

International Association for Energy Economics (IAEE) is an international non-profit society of professionals interested in energy economics. IAEE was founded in 1977, in the period of the energy crisis, when it became obvious that lack of knowledge on energy economics is one of the problems when dealing with the short- and long-term issues of energy supply and demand. IAEE is incorporated under United States laws and has headquarters in Cleveland.

The IAEE operates through a 17-member Council of elected and appointed members. Council and officer members serve in a voluntary position.

The IAEE publishes The Energy Journal, the policy oriented journal Economics of Energy & Environmental Policy,[1] and the IAEE Forum newsletter.

IAEE has over 4,500 members worldwide (in over 100 countries). There are over 25 national chapters, in countries where membership exceeds 25 individual members. Some of the regularly active national chapters of the IAEE are: USAEE - United States; GEE - Germany; BIEE - Great Britain; AEE - France; AIEE - Italy.

Publications

The International Association for Energy Economics publishes three publications throughout the year:

  • The Energy Journal, a quarterly academic publication

Conferences

The IAEE conferences address critical issues of vital concern and importance to governments and industries and provide a forum where policy issues are presented, considered and discussed at both formal sessions and informal social functions.
