Handbook ‘Information on the wind energy sector in Viet Nam’ provides necessary details about the valid legal framework and incentives by Vietnamese Government for investors of wind power in Vietnam. It also gives crucial information about investment procedures and financial options.

The companies say they are supportive of the directive, which “will hopefully constitute an important step towards achieving the EU’s 20% energy savings target by 2020”.

As of 2010, 57% of electricity in Latin America and the Caribbean stems from hydro sources while another 40% comes from thermoelectric power plants using fossil fuels and natural gas. Of the remainder, 2% comes from nuclear stations and 1% from wind, solar and geothermal plants.

Triển lãm quốc tế công nghệ, sản phẩm tiết kiệm năng lượng và năng lượng xanh- ENERTEC EXPO 2011 sẽ diễn ra từ ngày 17 đến ngày 20 tháng 8/2011 tại Trung tâm Triển Lãm và Hội Chợ Tân Bình, TP HCM.

Tính đến tháng 6/2011, PECSME đã triển khai 543 dự án tiết kiệm và hiệu quả trong 5 ngành công nghiệp sản xuất gạch, gốm sứ, dệt may, giấy-bột giấy và chế biến thực phẩm. Tổng mức năng lượng tiết kiệm (NLTK) đạt được là 232.000 tấn dầu tương đương (TOE) và giảm được tổng lượng phát khí thải nhà kính 940.000 tấn CO2. Đây là những kết quả ấn tượng, vượt xa so với mục tiêu đề ra.

Demand for energy in Vietnam tends to increase faster than the speed of economic development. Therefore, energy efficiency and conservation is very important for the development of the country's economy and businesses. Aware of this, Hanoi Kim Bai beer JSC has implemented energy saving, firstly energy audit, to identify opportunities to reduce energy costs.

Công trình 'Nghiên cứu công nghệ sản xuất DMSH từ các nguồn nguyên liệu tái tạo' sẵn có, thân thiện với môi trường do PGS, TS Vũ Thu Hà, Viện HHCNVN làm chủ nhiệm đã được Hội đồng Giám khảo giải thưởng VIFOTEC năm 2010 tặng giải ba cuộc thi.

"It basically becomes a stovetop, and you can heat anything you need to," said Sam Major, a member of the team with seniors Daniel Rist, David Luker and William Dunk. "As long as the autoclave reaches 121 Celsius (250 F) for 30 minutes (the standard set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), everything should be sterile, and we've found we're able to do that pretty easily.

Wadebridge in Cornwall has moved another step towards becoming the first solar powered town in the UK, as PV installations begin to go up across the municipality. The area aims to generate at least a third of its electricity from solar and wind power by 2015, which is the equivalent of 15,000MWh a year. By generating renewable energy at this level, Wadebridge will be able to benefit significantly from the UK’s feed-in tariff, enabling significant cash contributions for local community projects.

Cuộc thi Shell Eco-marathon là cơ hội để sinh viên sáng tạo và ứng dụng công nghệ tiên tiến cho việc sử dụng năng lượng hiệu quả nhất, đồng thời nghiên cứu đưa vào sử dụng những nhiên liệu mới. Quan trọng hơn cả đó là giáo dục tinh thần trách nhiệm khi sử dụng năng lượng và giảm phát thải khí CO2 bảo vệ môi trường.

The Stevens Institute of Technology Chemical Engineering Senior Design team of Rachel Kenion, Liana Vaccari, and Katie Van Strander designed, fabricated, and tested biochar electrodes for supercapacitors. The group is advised by Dr. Woo Lee, the George Meade Bond Professor of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science.

Ministers have tried to address public lack of trust in energy companies by offering assurances about the “Green Deal” – a policy designed to improve the energy efficiency of homes. Under this plan, any householder will be able to spend up to £10,000 making their home more energy efficient, funded by the savings from future gas and electricity bills.

According to the DOE’s statement, the $25 million it is providing will need to be matched by the winning universities, national labs, private companies or others who apply and are accepted for the program. Initially, the grant recipients are meant to focus on three specific areas, including building energy efficiency, second-generation biofuels and solar energy.

Germany's solar photovoltaic (PV) industry now employs more workers than steel production in the USA. With over 100,000 "green jobs" in PV alone, around 75 percent of European solar cells and modules as well as countless components are made in Germany. Record-breaking domestic demand is a key industry driver, with 7.4 GWp of PV capacity installed in 2010.

A series of new, larger turbines with longer blades have been launched into the market recently as manufacturers strive to deliver the lowest cost of energy with the next generation of designs. London, UK A trend towards larger capacity turbines with longer blades and larger rotor diameters has been long established, with OEMs continuing to offer existing machines with a range of rotor diameters. But now, a new generation of still larger machines has been unveiled.

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) is backing a drive to increase solar energy capacity in Asia-Pacific by six-fold to 3,000 megawatts by 2013.The ADB plans to provide up to US$2.25 billion in financing for solar projects and draw in a further $6.75 billion, mainly from the private sector, said Xiaoyu Zhao, vice-president for operations.

The idea is simple, says Kevin Moeller, PhD, and yet it has huge implications. All we are recommending is using photovoltaic cells (clean energy) to power electrochemical reactions (clean chemistry). Moeller is the first to admit this isn't new science. "But we hope to change the way people do this kind of chemistry by making a connection for them between two existing technologies," he says.

The people of Japan may be some of the most energy conscious in the world, and now Panasonic, with the help of eight partner companies, is looking to make them even greener. The project, which would as much re-building as it would be building, aims to turn on of Panasonic's former factory sites into a green smart town.

Located in the province of Hai Duong, Hong Duong Co., Ltd. is an enterprise specialized in producing and processing agricultural products, foodstuffs and types of salt with the production capacity of 12,000 tons of salt per year. Although the equipment is relatively uniform and modern, each year, the company still consumes a lot of energy: 278,400 kWh of electricity per year and 367.2 tons of coal per year. How to reduce consumption of these resources is the main concern of the company's leaders.
