World marketed energy consumption is projected to increase by 50 percent from 2005 to 2030. Total energy demand in the non-OECD countries increases by 85 percent, compared with an increase of 19 percent in the OECD countries.
The world is now in the early stages of an energy revolution that over the next few decades could be as momentous as the emergence of oil-and electricity-based economies a century ago. Double-digit market growth, annual capital flows of more than $100 billion, sharp declines in technology costs, and rapid progress in government policies all herald a promising new energy era.
Price is just the start of it. We need to kick the petroleum habit or we'll soon be in real trouble, says Ian Sample.
Although wind energy is a rapidly growing technology its use remains geographically concentrated, with more than 75 percent of global installed capacity found in just five countries. These countries, and others wishing to develop wind energy have
Renewable energy offers the planet a chance to reduce carbon emissions, clean the air, and put the civilization on a more sustainable footing. It also offers countries around the world the chance to improve their energy security and spur economic development.
www.wolfatthedoor.org.uk How much oil are we left with? Do soaring oil prices indicate that we have crossed the peak and that the present stock can sustain us only for another couple of decades? How much oil is undiscovered yet? Ask experts in the oil business, and they will explain in terms of reserve-production ratio or the Hubbert curve. Does this sound like Greek or Latin? Log on
Globally, the wind energy sector saw phenomenal growth in the year 2007. However, in India, the industry failed to keep pace. Worldwide wind energy installation were 19,696 in 2007 MW up from 15,120 MW in 2006. In contrast in India the installations in 2007 were 1580 MW down from 1730 MW in 2006.
The writer offers an insight into wind power technology in India - the current trends, progress, challenges and new innovations.
In 1997 the IEA produced a handy, pocket-sized summary of key energy data. This new edition responds to the enormously positive reaction to the books since then. Key World Energy Statistics from the IEA contains timely, clearly-presented data on the supply, transformation and consumption of all major energy sources.
The non-expert must pick up the right experts to follow, and these are not necessarily the ones who make the most noise Vandana Gombar / New Delhi May 5, 2009, 0:11 IST
