Wind power capacity installations in the EU in 2011 totaled 9,616 MW, similar to the previous year. This accounted for 21.4% of total new power capacity installations in the EU in 2011. Overall, renewable power sources accounted for 71.3% of new installations, totaling 32,043 MW. Germany was the largest market for new wind power capacity in 2011, installing almost 2,100 MW, followed by the UK with 1,293 MW and Spain with 1,050 MW.
The EU wind energy sector installed 11.6 gigawatts (GW) of capacity in 2012, bringing the total wind power capacity to 105.6 GW, according to the 2012 annual statistics launched by the European Wind Energy Association (EWEA).
This updated edition of Pure Power once again shows the huge contribution wind energy already makes – and will increasingly make – to meeting Europe’s electricity demand and strengthening its economy, and to avoiding polluting and costly fuel and carbon. Contents: Wind energy currently meets 5.3% of the EU’s electricity consumption from an installed capacity of 84.3 GW. The European Wind Energy Association’s scenarios show that wind energy in 2020 should meet 15.7% of EU electricity demand from 230 GW, and by 2030, 28.5% from 400 GW. Indeed, EWEA believes wind energy can provide half of Europe’s power by 2050, with the remainder from other renewable sources. To ensure the continued buoyancy of the wind energy sector and the path to 100% renewables in 2050, EU renewables legislation is needed now for the period after 2020. This should follow the successful legislation so far by setting an ambitious, binding renewables target for 2030.
This document discusses the development stages of national qualification frameworks based on the experiences of European Union and partner countries. It outlines that qualification frameworks are a global phenomenon aimed at improving education, training, and the labor market. The development of national qualification frameworks is a long-term process that involves exploratory, conceptual, design, testing, implementation, and review stages. It requires significant resources, commitment from stakeholders, and adaptability over many years as frameworks evolve in response to changing needs.

The summary includes:
1. Petrobras' planned investments of US$174.4 billion from 2009-2013, with over 40% allocated to exploration and production.
2. Goals to increase domestic oil and gas production significantly by 2013 and 2020 through development of pre-salt reservoirs and international operations.
3. Plans to substantially increase local content in equipment and services from 57% in 2003 to 75% by emphasizing development of Brazilian suppliers.
The document outlines a 3-5 year plan to start an independent record label to promote three bands - Volifonix, PartiBand, and Team Banzai. In the first year, the bands will record new albums and EPs, develop websites and social media presence, and tour locally. By the second year, the label will be incorporated, establish a headquarters, and book larger venues. Distribution deals will be pursued nationally by the third year along with an in-house recording studio. The long term goal is international distribution and worldwide touring for all bands. Constant production of new music and aggressive promotion are key to growing the label.
1. Government bodies and lobby groups have made claims about green energy policies' economic benefits, such as job creation, to support expensive spending to meet CO2 emission reduction targets.
2. However, job creation is not a valid basis for policy evaluation. Total income, value added, or welfare are better metrics than jobs. Employing more people involves costs that must be outweighed by the value of extra output.
3. There are no strong economic arguments that green energy policies will increase total employment in the medium/long run when holding macroeconomic conditions constant. While more may be employed in green sectors, this neglects diversion of investment from other parts of the economy.
The document summarizes the author's travels over the course of several months, including visits to Norway, Italy, Spain, Estonia, and Portugal. Some highlights included seeing the Northern Lights in Norway in October, attending an airshow in Venice, and going on a difficult mountain bike ride with friends in Italy that left the author exhausted with several punctures. Weather challenges like rain and hail impacted some planned trips.

Evaluaciones de riesgos psicosociales. Campaña Europea de InspecciónPablo Palacios
Este documento describe una campaña europea de inspección sobre riesgos psicosociales en el trabajo que se llevará a cabo en 2012. Se centrará en los sectores de asistencia sanitaria, trabajo social, servicios como hoteles y restaurantes, y transporte. Durante las inspecciones, los inspectores comprobarán si las empresas han evaluado los riesgos psicosociales y tomaron medidas para prevenirlos.
La Sociedad de Prevención de Fraternidad-Muprespa es la primera mutua en ser acreditada en todas las comunidades autónomas y disciplinas preventivas, fue creada en 2005 para garantizar un servicio de prevención eficaz. Cuenta con más de 1,100 profesionales incluyendo 440 técnicos de prevención y 480 sanitarios con una red asistencial nacional.

La inversión en obra pública en España ha caído un 39% entre enero y noviembre de 2011, lo que ha forzado a las constructoras españolas a diversificar geográficamente y por negocios. El mercado doméstico ya representa menos del 45% de la cartera de contratos de la mayoría de las constructoras, frente al 80% de hace cinco años. América, Reino Unido, Italia y Asia-Pacífico son ahora zonas clave para las empresas españolas.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

2 The european Wind energy associaTion
3. Executive summary
2011 annual installations
• 9,616 MW of wind power capacity (worth some €12.6 billion) was installed in the EU during
2011, a similar figure to the previous year (9,648 in 2010);
• Wind power accounted for 21.4% of total 2011 power capacity installations;
• Renewable power installations accounted for 71.3% of new installations during 2011:
32,043 MW of a total of 44,939 MW of new power capacity;
• More renewable power capacity was installed during 2011 than any other year, an increase
of 37.7% compared to 2010;
• More power capacity was installed in 2011 than ever before - an increase of 3.9%, due
entirely to increasing renewable power installations.
Trends & cumulative installations
• The EU’s total installed power capacity increased by 35,468 MW net to 895,878 MW, with
wind power increasing its share of installed capacity to 10.5% (93,957 MW), and renewable
capacity increasing its share to 31.1%;
• Since 2000, 28.2% of new capacity installed has been wind power, 47.8% renewables,
and 90.8% renewables and gas combined;
• For only the third time since 1998 the EU power sector installed more coal than it decommis-
sioned, highlighting the urgent need for the EU to move to a 30% greenhouse gas reduction
target for 2020, to introduce an Emissions Performance Standard, and to end decades of
subsidies for new coal build and its fuel;
• The EU power sector continues its move away from fuel oil and nuclear, with each technology
continuing to decommission more than it installs;
Wind power installations
• Annual installations of wind power have increased steadily over the last 17 years from 814
MW in 1995 to 9,616 MW in 2011, an annual average market growth of 15.6%;
• A total of 93,957 MW is now installed in the European Union, an increase in installed cumu-
lative capacity of 11% compared to the previous year;
• Germany remains the EU country with the largest installed capacity, followed by Spain,
France, Italy and the UK;
• Growth in onshore installations in Germany and Sweden, and offshore in the UK - together
with continuing strong performance from some emerging onshore markets in Eastern Europe
– have more than offset the fall in installations in mature markets such as France and Spain;
• The wind capacity installed by the end of 2011 would, in a normal year, produce 204 TWh of
electricity, representing 6.3% of electricity consumption – up from 5.3% the year before.
