This document summarizes the development of energy services in Lebanon, specifically energy auditing. It discusses how LCEC was launched in 2003 to help promote and fund energy audits, and how the energy auditing market has grown stronger since then. By 2009, there were 7 qualified energy auditing firms conducting over 120 studies identifying over $7 million in potential cost savings and 30,000 tons of CO2 reductions. Current efforts discussed include LCEC's prequalification scheme for auditing firms and a draft energy conservation law mandating audits for large facilities.
The Status of CCS 2011 Report - Victor Der - Global CCS Institute – Nov 2011 ...Global CCS Institute
As a part of the Institute's strategic focus on assisting CCS projects through knowledge sharing, three North American roadshow events will help the industry share project experiences and knowledge about CCS. Taking place in the US and Canada, the three events include:
• Austin, Texas on November 8, 2011;
• Calgary, Canada on 10 November, 2011; and
• Washington, D.C. on 19 January, 2012.
The first roadshow focused on sharing project experiences and knowledge from the projects in North America but also brought in projects from Europe (Don valley) and Australia (Callide) so that regionally diverse experiences could be shared amongst a global audience.
Attendance at the event was around 30 to 35 which allowed open and frank discussions around technical, management, and regulatory issues and how these challenges can impact on a project’s advancement and decision making processes.
