Economic incentive systems need to be directed towards encouraging the implementation of clean energy technologies.

(a) To promote innovation, clean energy and energy efficiency and conservation improve policy, regulatory and financing frameworks and accelerate the deployment of cleaner technologies

This will promote specific environmental and energy related technologies, and stimulate investment and technology flows from developed countries to developing countries, while also enabling the implementation of clean technology and energy efficiency projects.

In addition, UNIDO is actively promoting business partnerships to support energy efficiency and clean technologies for enhancing productivity and competitiveness of selected industries in several countries.

International cooperation was essential to help the developing countries to ensure the transfer of environmentally clean, energy efficient technologies so as better to protect the environment.

When combined with renewable energy sources, hydrogen energy provides the ultimate clean energy system.

Other economies are growing at relatively high rates, too. As a result, while many advanced and developing countries are pursuing far reaching measures to increase energy efficiency and adopt clean energy technologies, their existing technologies, incentives, regulations, and commitments imply a sharp rise in total carbon emissions in the coming decades.

Many efforts to disseminate clean energy technologies within developing countries have limited or no success because the technologies introduced are poorly adapted for local needs and or because there is insufficient local capacity to maintain the systems over the long term.

Moreover, China will cut its energy intensity by 40 and is investing 440 billion in clean energy technology, as well as 9 billion per month in energy R D. The Chinese are testing on a grand scale novel technologies in coal conversion, solar, wind, and carbon sequestration.

In fact, demand for clean energy was exploding worldwide.

The rural energy programme aims at providing modern energy services to the rural poor using renewable energy technologies.

Research on mitigation included research on new energy sources and renewable energy, energy efficiency, and GHG abatement technologies.

The grid of tomorrow is no grid, and energy, clean efficient energy, will one day be free.

a In the context of Renewables 2004, renewable energy sources and technologies include solar energy, wind energy, hydropower, biomass energy including biofuels, and geothermal energy.

Encouraging sustainable local enterprises that can deliver reliable energy services based on renewable energy technologies

Experts on economic development in Africa naturally concentrate on basic technologies clean water, energy for cooking, electricity, and improved roads. Even in South Africa, the wealthiest country on the continent, millions of people lack basics.

And people say we can't have clean energy because it's too expensive.

Unfortunately, clean, renewable energy sources that do not emit carbon dioxide, such as wind power and geothermal power, are not yet sufficient. Solar power can be produced on the required scale but is too expensive under current technologies.

Clean coal technologies were at least 25 percent more efficient than traditional coal fired power plants.

We are less accustomed to thinking of global cooperation to promote new technologies, such as clean energy, a malaria vaccine, or drought resistant crops to help poor African farmers. By and large, we regard new technologies as something to be developed by businesses for the marketplace, not as opportunities for global problem solving.

It is the principal requirement for moving us rapidly to a clean energy future.

At present, accelerating the development of renewable energy, and advancing transformation toward clean and low carbon energy have become a global trend.

Cutting edge technological developments in renewable energy and hybrid or electric vehicles, for example will be indispensable in building these cities (and, more broadly, a clean and efficient economy). Although much research remains to be done, such technologies are increasingly accessible.

While in some parts of the world there has been notable progress towards this goal, a great deal more effort is needed, both to enhance the implementation of existing clean energy technologies and to spur further scientific understanding and technological development.

This requires making transport technologies more clean and efficient, and reducing the demand for personal motorized vehicle transport.

Energy efficiency, energy savings, renewable energy and less greenhouse gas emitting fossil fuel and related advanced technologies Option 1 Research and development relating to transport and industry

As regards hydrogen energy technologies, the main focus of activities will be on managing the major technical assistance project on the establishment and operation of the International Centre for Hydrogen Energy Technologies (ICHET) in Turkey.

And while, of course, we do need clean energy, I would put to you that it's possible that by looking at climate change as a clean energy generation problem, we're in fact setting ourselves up not to solve it.

It may be possible that we are not even able to build that much clean energy.

We're beginning to see the emergence of wonderful technologies like real time energy meters.

Green investment amounts to only 15 of the total, and investment in energy efficiency in buildings, transport, and industry totals a meager 130 billion. Containing the increase in average surface temperature to two degrees requires developing clean technologies, and even more important, a four fold increase in investment in energy efficiency over the next ten years.

But, in the United States, unlike in Europe and Asia, discussion of hydrogen energy and fuel cells as systemic, game changing technologies is largely absent. That needs to change these clean, renewable energy sources promise not only zero emission baseload power, but also a zero emission fuel for cars and trucks, the biggest polluters of them all.

To promote campaigns on the responsible consumption of ecologically feasible products and the use of clean technologies (for example, biogas).

Participants also recognized the important contribution that the private sector could make through development and the transfer of clean technologies.

Push forward global clean development, power interconnection and other top ten initiatives to accelerate global energy interconnection.

That's so much energy, you couldn't afford to desalinate or clean water in this country that way.

Looking ahead, the world economy will need to introduce alternative technologies that conserve energy, water, and land, or that enable us to use new forms of renewable energy (such as solar and wind power) at much lower cost than today. Many such technologies exist, and even better technologies can be developed.

At that time, ethanol began to be developed as a source of energy and as a clean fuel.

Meanwhile, China the world s leading investor in renewable energy projects is undergoing a transformation from the world s low cost factory to a global leader in green innovation and a major exporter of clean technologies. In the contest for this global market, Europe cannot compete on price alone.

5. Calls upon Governments, as well as relevant international and regional organizations and other relevant stakeholders, to combine, as appropriate, the increased use of new and renewable energy resources, more efficient use of energy, greater reliance on advanced energy technologies, including cleaner fossil fuel technologies, and the sustainable use of traditional energy resources, which could meet the growing need for energy services in the longer term to achieve sustainable development

(ii) To implement measures, including through international cooperation, economic tools and supportive policies, to promote the use of existing technologies which expand energy access while reducing the impacts of air pollution, including the use of cleaner household energy technologies by the poor

(i) To accelerate the development and dissemination of affordable and cleaner energy efficiency and energy conservation technologies, as well as the transfer of such technologies, in particular to developing countries, on favourable terms, including on concessional and preferential terms, as mutually agreed, bearing in mind that access to energy facilitates the eradication of poverty

However, it is the developing countries and thus the world s poor who are most vulnerable. It is unrealistic to ask poor countries, where more than 1.6 billion people do not have access to clean energy and technologies, to bear the costs associated with the much needed technological change.

The climate friendly technology financing facility in China, establishing a venture capital fund to address the financing barriers by providing equity investment and technical assistance to Chinese enterprises through financing transfer, commercialization and application of new technologies and innovations with high clean energy impact at the industrial scale
