Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1978, this report summarises the results of a workshop on why energy consumption is much higher in the United States than other industrialised countries with similar living standards. The papers included in the workshop make interesting comparisons between countries such as Japan and the United Kingdom and the United States, raising interesting questions about environmental policy-making. This title will be of interest to students of Environmental Studies.

Book excerpt: This summary report presents information on the end-uses of energy in the residential sector of seven major OECD countries over the period 1960-1978. Much of the information contained herein has never been published before. We present data on energy consumption by energy type and end-use for three to five different years for each country. Each year table is complemented by a set of indicators, which are assembled for the entire 20-year period at the end of each country listing. Finally, a set of key indicators from each country is displayed together in a table, allowing comparison for three periods: early (1960-63), pre-embargo (1970-73), and recent (1975-78). Analysis of these results, smoothing and interpolation of the data, addition of further data, and analytical comparison of in-country and cross-country trends will follow in the next phase of our work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Responding to a Gleneagles G8 Summit reguest, this book shows how changes in energy efficiency, economic structure, income, prices and fuel mix have affected recent trends in energy use and CO2 emissions in IEA countries. The results are disturbing. Since 1990, the rate of energy efficiency improvement in IEA countries has been less than 1 per cent per year - much lower than in previous decades and not nearly enough to stem the growth of CO2 emissions. If climate change is to be tackled, and IEA countries move towards a sustainable energy future, then this rate will need to double. This report, using in-depth energy indicators, provides important insights to policy-makers about current energy use and CO2 emissions patterns that will help shape priorities for future action.

Download or read book World Energy Outlook written by International Energy Agency and published by OECD. This book was released on 1998 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This World Energy Outlook, the first since the Kyoto agreement on climate change, is based on a new methodology and a new world energy model. It analyzes the major issues and uncertainties of the global energy scene from now through the year 2020. In this period, the Outlook projects world energy demand to grow by 65 percent and carbon dioxide emissions by 70 percent--unless governments impose strict policies to restrain them.The Outlook examines the emissions-cutting commitments made at Kyoto and points out that they will be impossible to meet if governments continue to treat energy as "business as usual." A whole new policy-mix--including regulations, flexible market mechanisms, and the encouragement of less polluting sources--will be required to meet the Kyoto targets.The book provides a summary and presents details concerning the outlook for power generation, oil, gas, coal, and biomass. Color graphics and forecast tables show prospects to 2020 for such variables as electricity generation capacity and fuel consumption, investment in new plants, prospective hydropower and nuclear generating capacity, oil demand by sector, oil reserves, unconventional oil supplies, natural gas consumption by region, gas reserves, coal consumption, and much more. The book provides detailed energy outlooks for OECD Europe, OECD North America, OECD Pacific, Transition Economies, China, East Asia, South Asia, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East. Over 50 pages of tables provide more detailed projections for energy balances and CO2 emissions by region. An annex provides information on definitions and conversion factors.Includes color graphs and charts

Download or read book Global Energy Fundamentals written by Simone Tagliapietra and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-13 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a rigorous, concise guide to the current status and future prospects of the global energy system. As we move away from fossil fuels and toward clean energy solutions, the complexity of the global energy system has increased. Tagliapietra cuts through this complexity with a multidisciplinary perspective of the system, which encompasses economics, geopolitics, and basic technology. He goes on to explore the main components of the global energy system - oil, natural gas, coal, nuclear energy, bioenergy, hydropower, geothermal energy, wind energy, solar energy, marine energy - as well as energy consumption and energy efficiency. It then provides an in-depth analysis of the pivotal issues of climate change and of energy access in Africa.
