The collapse in world oil prices in the second half of 2014 will have only a moderate impact on the fast-developing low-carbon transition in the world electricity system, according to research firm Bloomberg New Energy Finance. While diesel and oil-based power is still uneconomic at $60/barrel, the pressure to switch is reduced.
