Boosting Australia's Energy Productivity
What does energy efficiency matter? Energy efficiency is the single most cost-effective way of lowering greenhouse gas emissions and an essential component of any strategy to reach long-term emission reduction goals. It also boosts economic productivity, improves energy security, reduces expenditure on fuels and energy infrastructure, reduces air pollution and develops the energy services industry.
If Australia improved its energy efficiency by just an extra one per cent each year it would generate an additional $8 billion in GDP by 2020 and $26 billion by 2030. This is an important contribution to improving Australia’s productivity, as well as cutting our energy bills and carbon pollution.

Panel 6. Equal treatment of CCS with other technology options - Dick Wells, N...Global CCS Institute
CCS has the potential to contribute significantly to reducing global emissions according to the IEA, yet it receives much less public investment and support compared to renewables. An Australian case study shows renewable programs receiving over $20 billion in support compared to just $3.2 billion for CCS technology programs and $1 billion potentially in doubt. For CCS to fulfill its anticipated role in reducing emissions, policy support is needed that is commensurate with this role, including transitional support for early CCS projects, CO2 storage exploration and development, and continued R&D especially for storage.The world in 50 years
The document discusses the current state of renewable energy and projections for the future. It notes that in 2008 over half of renewable energy came from hydropower but renewables only made up 18% of total energy. Many countries increased investments and policies around renewable energy from 2007 to 2009. The document outlines UK government targets for 15% renewable energy by 2020, a 34% cut in carbon emissions by 2020 and 80% lower by 2050 through increased wind turbines and nuclear plants. It predicts that with higher renewable energy supply and lower demand, life will improve with less focus on reducing energy use and more focus on creating energy.

The structure, organization and governance of major public utility industries have been changing or rather undergoing transformation in the recent past. Countries have for instance privatized state owned utilities in an attempt to enhance their efficiency. Various governments have also seen private utilities either wholly or partly deregulated in what has been claimed as an attempt to control of the industry players for the good of the citizens. Increased competition in the utility industry has also been a contributing factor to these changes that have been experienced by both developed nations and the emerging economies. Japan has not been left behind either as its public utility industry has for example undergone tremendous transformations.
The study of public utility industry in Japan can be traced long before the Second World War in what was known as the Meijji era. Research in this area of interest started in 1930s which saw the establishment of Japan Society of Public Utility Economics (JSPUE) later in 1949. This was in an attempt to enhance research which was deemed necessary especially because Japan was emerging as a new democracy after the war. It was therefore necessary in order for her to improve the livelihoods of Japanese. By then, JSPUE had a total of 156 individual members and 30 corporate ones. However, today things have changed In terms of its membership and its roles as well. Today, JSPUE enjoys membership of 426individual members and 75 corporate members. Its roles have also evolved and it does the following in today’s competitive utility industry. One, it researches and holds annual meetings to discuss its findings with all the members. Two, it holds seminars to educate members of the public about public utility facilities. Thirdly, JSPUE publishes a journal on public utility economics on a quarterly basis.
JSPUE also conducts exchanges with other nations with regard to public utilities to come up with required literature about the same. JSPUE assembles scholars to examine the nature and other important aspects of electric power, gas, transport, water and other public utility areas that are of interest to Japan.
This has further changed in Japan’s public utility industry as evidenced by the fact that the industry is no longer considered as a domestic entity as it were decades ago. Japan therefore agrees that changes in other countries affect its utility industry directly thanks to globalization. Among such changes that affect the utility industry include deregulation policies of trade partners, competition enhancing policies and privatization of p.
Renewable power energy production the energy sustenance option for nigeria
This document discusses renewable power energy production as an option for meeting Nigeria's energy needs. It notes that Nigeria receives abundant sunlight and has potential for solar power production. Specifically, it receives an average of 3.5-7 kWh/m2/day of solar radiation. Biomass is also widely available across Nigeria and has potential to generate 442MWe of energy. The document aims to highlight how renewable energy sources like solar and biomass could be developed to deliver megawatts of energy to the national grid and provide a renewable energy plan for Nigeria. It argues that solar and biomass technologies could help address Nigeria's problem of inefficient electricity distribution and unreliable power supply by harnessing the abundant solar and biomass resources.

India relies heavily on fossil fuels for energy but aims to increase renewable energy. A national plan was created to ensure affordable electricity access nationwide. However, 44% of homes still lack power and 80,000 communities remain unconnected. This energy deficit and India's role in carbon emissions demonstrate the need for a renewable transition. International investors seek clear policies to support India's renewable goals but funding its $200 billion target poses challenges. India has ministries and programs developing renewable resources like solar, wind, and hydro. It aims to source 40% of energy from renewables by 2030, increasing renewable capacity through renewable portfolio standards. Renewable energy now comprises 23% of installed capacity, a rapid growth that benefits the environment and lowers costs
Haripur npp project
The document provides a cost benefit analysis of the proposed Haripur Nuclear Power Plant in West Bengal, India. Key points:
- The plant was proposed in 2006 but faced public opposition and was suspended. It would have had a capacity of 10,000 MW generated from 6 reactors.
- The site at Haripur is a fertile agricultural and fishing area that supports many local livelihoods. Building the plant would have displaced over 80,000 people.
- The analysis identifies and quantifies the various costs and benefits of the proposed plant to determine if it would provide a net benefit to society. Factors like energy production, employment, and environmental impacts are considered.
- While the plant may have

- The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011 prompted major changes to Japan's energy policy and mix. The disaster revealed issues with nuclear plant safety practices and government oversight.
- In the aftermath, Japan stopped nearly all nuclear power generation and increased reliance on renewable energy and energy conservation. The feed-in tariff system introduced in 2012 caused renewable energy production to grow significantly.
- Japan's current energy plan aims to balance priorities around safety, energy security, economic efficiency, and the environment, while reducing nuclear dependence. However, moving to zero nuclear power immediately would conflict with energy security. The optimal long-term energy mix remains an ongoing discussion.

This document summarizes the status and future potential of solar energy in India. It discusses how India has an acute energy shortage and is heavily dependent on fossil fuels. Solar energy represents a promising renewable alternative with its zero emissions and abundant sunlight. India has launched a National Solar Mission to promote solar power generation and aims for grid parity by 2022 and coal parity by 2030. Currently solar power costs about 2.5 times as much as coal power, but costs are decreasing. The potential for solar power in India is enormous due to its many sunny days each year and high solar incidence levels across most of the country.

The demand of energy is dramatically increased nowadays and the demand either can renewable or non renewable depends on the drawbacks. Hence, non renewable energies show the better performance where the limitations are comprisable very few and environmental friendly. Already developed countries are being used renewable energies as the main sources of energy to produce electricity where it proved the less easy and more benefits. However, non renewable energies such as natural gas, gas generator and so on still have been producing more and more electricity and this amount is around 10 times more than renewable energies especially developing countries like Bangladesh. This paper is being discussed the importance of renewable energies and non renewable energies to produce electricity, comparing the different countries electricity production and the using sources. Here analysis the data of different power plants in Bangladesh and the types of fuel, CO2 emission and electricity production. In additionally, Gazipur district has been selected to show the power consumption factories with the cost analysis in selected fuel types.

- 2. Overall Landscape in Japan New Government; same challenges and opportunities Electricity generating challenges Energy policy in flux Prime Minister Abe and the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) assumed power in December 2012. The previous Administration led by former Prime Minister Noda and the Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) established an energy policy in September 2012, but details were not finalized before the transition of power. The LDP will likely establish a new energy policy by the end of summer 2013. Regardless, Japan may encounter electricity generating power deficits this winter and next summer as there is a paucity of nuclear power on the grid. Pre- Fukushima, Japan derived ~30% of electricity from nuclear energy. 2

Clean/Renewable Energy Policy DPJ energy policy was oriented toward green growth Feed-in-Tariff continues as the leading green growth policy Strong energy security focus We anticipate continuity in policy regarding renewable energy. However, we expect lower feed-in-tariff (FIT) pricing next spring when the FIT law is reviewed. LDP support for DPJ efforts on deregulation is not clear. LDP may increase support for nuclear energy. Fossil energy policies (coal, diversity of LNG sources) would also likely remain the same. 3
