These problems and crises demand urgent attention with anticipatory capacity building.

As global oil demand increases, there is not enough capacity to meet it a cycle that will continue until demand collapses.

The only way to meet growing demand was to use OPEC s spare capacity and commercial inventories.

They are in increasingly high demand, and we hope to expand our capacity to offer them.

The dramatic improvement in demand in 2002 2004 did of course provide an incentive to add capacity, particularly in countries where continued strong demand growth was foreseen.

Third, UNCTAD should continue its role in capacity building in developing countries through demand driven technical cooperation.

This did not work very well, because investment was constrained by deficient domestic aggregate demand relative to capacity.

First, in a situation of widespread unemployment and excess capacity, short run output is determined primarily by demand, not supply.

Iran s energy demand will exceed its supply, possibly reducing or even eliminating its oil export capacity in the near future.

Such efforts have bolstered global demand for commodities, while diversifying African economies and enhancing the productive capacity of domestic suppliers.

To be sure, developing countries differed often markedly in their capacity for fiscal stimulus to counter the loss of external demand.

Economic scarcity, meanwhile, is caused by a lack of investment in water or insufficient human capacity to satisfy the demand for water.

New capacity is mainly planned in developing countries and countries in transition with relatively low production costs and rapidly growing domestic demand.

It should continue technical assistance and capacity building on a demand driven basis, equitably distributed among regions and tailored to specific needs.

Thus, there is a global slackening of aggregate demand relative to the glut of supply capacity, which will impede a robust global economic recovery.

Once spare capacity vanished and commercial inventories declined to critical levels relative to estimated future demand, oil prices started to break record after record.

However, while the capacity forecast is more likely to be below the mark than above it, the reverse is true for the demand forecasts.

Global demand for fish consumption is growing, and so, too, is the global capacity to catch fish, driving some species to the point of extinction.

Even in a situation with relatively slow demand growth and weak prices, new capacity may still be added successfully if production costs are low enough.

(a) Electricity savings mitigate the need for expensive and potentially polluting new power generating capacity, which would otherwise be needed to meet rapidly increasing power demand

UNCTAD should continue to deliver high quality technical assistance and capacity building activities to developing countries, including advice on institutional reforms on a demand driven basis.

It will stop because of the growing demand of us on all the resources, all the capacity, all the systems of the Earth, which is now having economic damage.

But, given increasing capacity utilization in the export industries, as well as higher investment requirements owing to the normal capital replacement cycle, domestic investment demand is now also rising.

World demand forecasts for 2005 and 2006 point to annual growth rates of 4 to 5 per cent, which would be just enough to accommodate the planned capacity additions.

This, in turn, is likely to increase the demand for the services of the organizations of the United Nations system, in particular for national capacity building in development management.

If nominal and real depreciation (appreciation) of the deficit (surplus) countries fails to occur, the deficit countries falling domestic demand and the surplus countries failure to reduce savings and increase consumption will lead to a global shortfall in aggregate demand in the face of a capacity glut.

During 2009, seven large wind turbines, likely Vestas 3MWs totalling 21MW capacity, were erected in the sea north of Sprogø to contribute to the electrical demand of the Great Belt Link.

Effective coordination of disaster assistance is often crucial, particularly when many organizations respond and local emergency management agency (LEMA) capacity has been exceeded by the demand or diminished by the disaster itself.

The problem is that people do not demand houses they demand habitats.

Local and regional supply scarcities will continue to put pressure on some areas of natural forest but, on a broad scale, the world's forests have the capacity to meet this increase in demand.

A further 1.6 billion people live in areas experiencing economic water scarcity, where the lack of investment in water or insufficient human capacity make it impossible for authorities to satisfy the demand for water.

The expectation that large crises will continue to demand greater capacity, quality and accountability in humanitarian response requires that the United Nations examine and strengthen the systems, tools and competencies it has in place.

That will contribute to the development of a database of evidence on effective ways to prevent armed violence, and will eventually enhance the capacity to develop strategies to reduce the demand for small arms.
