This document summarizes the history of the International Energy Agency (IEA) from its founding in 1974 through 1998 in 3 sentences:
The IEA was established in 1974 by several countries including the US and European nations to help coordinate a collective response to major disruptions in oil supply and increase energy security amongst member countries. Over the decades, the IEA grew to include more member countries and expanded its work beyond oil security to include renewable energy, energy efficiency, climate change mitigation, and more. The document highlights some of the IEA's major publications, events, and milestones throughout its history through images and excerpts from press releases and publications from the 1970s to 1990s.
What is Renewable Energy? Solar Industry Buzzwords Defined.Brightergy
Every industry has its own language. Buzzwords, terms, and jargon make understanding technology difficult for industry outsiders. The renewable energy and solar industries are no different. From energy-specific terms to technology terms, we've layed out an introduction to some of those buzzwords defined.
This presentation provides an overview of the Solar Water Heating rebate programs and a technical review of solar water heating technologies. It is specificially geared towards contractors and self-installers.
With changes to the global energy map and new technologies come opportunity and challenges. Challenges which include relentless energy demand growth, even in the face of widespread energy poverty, and meeting that demand reliably and affordably without threatening catastrophic climate change.
This reality means that cooperation between industry and policy making will be extremely important in the coming decades.

Addressing Energy Governance: Questions of Scale and Scope
This webinar brings together researchers working on energy governance issues from a range of projects funded under two different DFID initiatives. These initiatives are the EPSRC/DFID/DECC funded Understading Sustainable Energy Solutions (USES) programme whose 13 projects are networked under the USES Network (http://www.lcedn.com/uses) and the DFID-funded Gender and Energy research programme which is managed by Energia (http://www.energia.org/research).
Issues that will be covered in the webinar include: the roles of local government and political decentralization in energy governance; the political economy of energy sector dynamics and decision-making processes; Energy sector reform and fossil-fuel subsidization and the role of cities and municipalities in sustainable energy transitions.
Tracking Clean Energy Progress 2014 examines progress in the development and deployment of key clean energy technologies. This Energy Technology Perspectives 2014 (ETP 2014) excerpt tracks each technology and sector against interim 2025 targets in the IEA 2014 Energy Technology Perspectives 2°C scenario, which lays out pathways to a sustainable energy system in 2050.
Humankind is responsible for the massive USE of fossil fuels which has changed the atmosphere and temperature of the planet. Toxins and plastic are an accumulating problem of the oceans, land and air, while technology is becoming our second if not OUR first nature. Discuss.
The International Energy Agency’s annual benchmark for tracking energy investment, World Energy Investment 2019 provides a full picture of today’s capital flows and what they might mean for tomorrow’s energy sector. It assesses whether the frameworks and strategies put in place by governments, the energy industry, and financial institutions are spurring timely investment, and how spending across sectors and technologies matches with the world’s energy security and sustainability needs.
Dr Fatih Birol, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency, spoke at the EU-US Business to Business Energy Forum in Brussels on May 2, 2019, about the global LNG trade.
his webinar presented the most recent findings from IEA’s Energy Efficiency Market Report 2018, featuring:
- The Efficient World Scenario: What would happen by 2040 if countries realised all the economically viable energy efficiency potential that is available today?
- The Efficient World Strategy: The policies, technologies and strategies for achieving an Efficient World exist today. Global experiences point the way.
- Special focus on South Africa and other emerging economies: highlights, progress, and potential.
- Findings on the current rate of progress on improving energy efficiency, and historic and current trends.
The webinar was organised by the South African Department of Energy’s Energy Efficiency Initiatives Directorate and the International Energy Agency, and is presented by Joe Ritchie, Energy Policy Analyst at the IEA and report coordinator.
This webinar focused on where we are today and how we could achieve key energy-related sustainable developments goals on climate change; air quality and universal access to modern energy.
This webinar covers the most recent findings from IEA’s Energy Efficiency Market Report 2018, featuring the Efficiency World Scenario, the Efficient World Strategy, and a special focus on Brazil and Mexico.

What do changing energy dynamics mean for the world’s largest oil and gas exporters? A new special report, part of the IEA’s flagship World Energy Outlook series, focuses on six key producers, Iraq, Nigeria, Russia, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates & Venezuela, and examines the pressures that they face in different price and policy scenarios to 2040. The drive for energy efficiency and the long-term response to climate change, in addition to technology innovation and the shale revolution, all point to sustained pressure on economies that rely heavily on revenue from oil and gas.
