PSI Media Inc presents the India energy handbook 2011 to identify business opportunities and track the progress of projects in rapidly growing markets for technologies that minimize pollutant emissions associated with the use of fossil fuels. These technologies include renewables and nuclear power, which displace traditional primary-energy resources.
This 2010 edition of Key World Energy Statistics by IEA consists of global data up to 2008 and when available up to 2009, for energy production, trade, transformation and consumption, CO2 emissions from fuel combustion and energy prices.
Electric vehicles (EVs) represent both a new demand for electricity and a possible storage medium that could supply power to utilities. The "load shifting" and
While the Copenhagen Accord was far from the comprehensive agreement that many anticipated coming out of the 15th meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP 15) in Denmark in 2009, one should not entirely
discount the potential of the agreement to develop a solid foundation and framework to help countries begin to respond effectively to climate change.
Recent increases in production of crop-based (or first-generation) biofuels have engendered increasing
concerns over potential conflicts with food supplies and land protection, as well as disputes over greenhouse gas reductions. This has heightened a sense of urgency around the development of biofuels produced from non-food biomass (second-generation biofuels).
This report details trends in the renewable energy sector across the world. Finds that investment in renewable energy power capacity (excluding large hydro) in 2009 was comparable to that in fossil-fuel generation, at around $100 billion each. <br>
This report identifies five key elements of a 21st century electric utility business model and makes specific recommendations to utilities as they transition to a low-carbon future. It is by no means the final word on this complex and constantly evolving subject.
This report seeks to inform decision makers seeking to prioritise RD&D investments in a time of financial uncertainty. It is an update of the December 2009 IEA report Global Gaps in Clean Energy Research, Development and Demonstration, which examined whether rates of LCET investment were sufficient to achieve shared global energy and environmental goals (IEA,2009a).
