UNIDO's energy efficiency programme addresses the fact that industry is one of the biggest users of energy.

Hydropower development is another area in which several Parties share common project priorities.

More money from the EU budget now goes to nuclear research than to non nuclear research and development, and more infrastructure funding goes to carbon capture and storage (CCS) and conventional energy than to renewable energies.

China is setting ambitious targets for reducing energy intensity and making massive investments in renewable energy.

Other projects based on renewable energy systems are being implemented in India and Mexico.

In the industrial sector, three Parties proposed projects aimed at identifying energy conservation measures and actions (energy efficiency gains).

This is a pity, because the UK is missing out on the opportunity to build offshore generating capacity along its long, windy coastline.

Five of these Parties also proposed projects that aim at removing energy conservation and efficiency barriers.

Energy can reduce poverty and prevent hunger by facilitating income generating applications, and the establishment of micro enterprises, as well as providing power for pumping water, processing or grinding food, and cooking.

And the technology that we settled on as an ideal partner for the Seawater Greenhouse is concentrated solar power, which uses solar tracking mirrors to focus the sun's heat to create electricity.

Close to 155 billion was invested in 2008 in renewable energy companies and projects worldwide, not including large scale hydroelectric projects, according to a recent UN Environment Program report.

The political stakes are high, and China s hydropower interests are strong.

Four Parties proposed projects targeting the use of landfill waste water biogas for energy generation.

Rising dependence on energy imports has already been used to rationalize an increased emphasis on maritime power, raising new concerns about sea lane safety and vulnerability to supply disruptions.

In 1863, the French Navy launched Plongeur , the first submarine in the world to be propelled by mechanical power.

Energy projects also could be strengthened, given that energy needs are expected to grow even faster south of the Mediterranean than in Europe.

The debate over the impact that new nickel projects will have on New Caledonia's pristine maritime environment began some years ago.

Carbon pricing could be used to finance research and development, and to send a price signal to promote the deployment of effective, affordable technology alternatives.

On the basis of existing networks, African NGOs often constitute ideal partners for the implementation of energy projects.

A parabolic (or paraboloid or paraboloidal) reflector (or dish or mirror) is a reflective surface used to collect or project energy such as light, sound, or radio waves.

Tugu was the insurance company that issued the policy to cover one of Magma's geothermal projects in Indonesia.

What governments ought to do is stimulate an innovative economy, not endless roads, wind energy and other building projects.

In addition to aircraft engines, Pratt Whitney manufactures gas turbines for industrial and power generation, and marine turbines.

For example, Germany s ongoing nuclear phase out has been complemented by accelerated renewables implementation, with up to 3,000 MW of solar photovoltaic capacity connected to Germany s power grid in a single month.

China plans to double its hydropower capacity to over 120 GW by 2010 and to build more hydropower projects for at least another 20 years.

According to The Wall Street Journal, the US Department of Energy (DOE) alone is planning to spend more than 40 billion in loans and grants to encourage private firms to develop green technologies, such as electric cars, new batteries, wind turbines, and solar panels.

Projects for strategic cooperation in energy say, production of solar and wind energy in the Sahara for sale to Europe would be especially valuable.

It is the world s second largest maker of aircraft engines, and also has major businesses in the marine propulsion and energy sectors.

Moreover, the Chinese have built up wind and solar power so quickly that they have just increased their goal for renewable sources to 15 of total power generation by 2020.

The UK needs offshore wind to meet its renewable targets, and in a few years it will need electricity from any source it can find just to keep the lights turned on.

In the case of the carrier, two naval reactors give the ship almost unlimited range and provide enough electrical energy to power a city of 100,000 people.

Governments in poor and developing countries have been promoting projects to distribute off grid RETs for decades, supported by multilateral institutions, bilateral aid programs, or non governmental organizations.

If approved, this credit would be devoted to energy, urban communications and community development projects in agriculture, health and education, and to direct budget support.

Marine environment, marine resources and the protection of vulnerable marine ecosystems

Marine environment and marine resources

Roughly 80 of China s energy imports pass through that potential chokepoint, which is mostly policed by the US Navy.

Indeed, China is increasingly emphasizing its naval and maritime interests economic development, territorial management, energy and food security as well as trade.

Market based solutions to the climate challenge run the very serious risk of undermining development objectives, precisely because they aim to raise the price of energy services in order to make renewable energy sources attractive to private investors.

Marine environment, marine resources and sustainable development

Efficient buildings enable countries to produce and consume less energy, which supports economic development, because money is freed up for other projects, while promoting energy security and environmental sustainability.
