Agriculture and energy sector policy reform

It was particularly necessary to mainstream sustainable energy solutions within global energy policy.

(v) The need for an energy policy

Energy security is the overriding policy objective.

China has an energy policy based on radical energy efficiency and leap frog technology.

(d) Reviewing national experiences with energy policy making

Energy services Developing countries aim to accommodate competing policy objectives when seeking to open up energy markets.

The availability, cost and diffusion of sustainable energy technologies will depend strongly on policy, including on energy costing policy that allows environmental impacts to be reflected in pricing structures.

Employment and livelihood as a focus of industrial development and energy policy

(i) Furthering synergies between energy policy and other policy areas developed in the context of greenhouse gas limitation reduction

Indeed, the internal and external aspects of energy policy are interrelated. Europe cannot build an efficient external policy without achieving a minimum of harmonization of member state policies regarding energy flows, interconnections, infrastructure, investment, and greater progress toward a single energy market.

Some apex farmers' organizations already promote an alternative carbohydrate based renewable energy policy.

Former policy objectives such as energy security and energy supply diversification are giving way to EU wide energy supply and demand forces and becoming less dependent on strictly national circumstances.

Most Parties use a variety of policy devices, including economic instruments to tax energy consumption, or provide financial incentives for energy efficiency investments.

What policy changes would allow energy efficiency efforts to expand, including through market mechanism?

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

The energy policy requires energy services to be supplied not only at the minimum price but also with the minimum impact on the environment.

The global energy policy scene is to a large extent dominated by three overriding concerns

The Government s policy priorities are to improve energy security, economic efficiency and local air quality.

The Governing Council Global Ministerial Environment Forum should mandate UNEP to develop, expand and implement a programme to train energy policy makers to understand the implications of energy issues by evaluating the environmental, social and economic sustainability performance of conventional and emerging energy technologies and to consider how to promote enabling policy and legal frameworks for sustainable energy technology innovation and dissemination.

So I decided to give a public talk criticizing the lack of an appropriate energy policy.

putting a stop to Moscow s divide and conquer politics by adopting a common EU energy  policy

putting a stop to Moscow s divide and conquer politics by adopting a common EU energy policy

To formulate such a policy requires us to frame a single energy policy. Lady Ashton will need to be firm in dealing with Russia and with member states who subordinate Europe to the commercial interests of their national energy companies.

UNEP is engaged in a number of activities aimed at accelerating the use of energy efficiency and renewable energy, spanning the areas of policy, finance and capacity building.

The Government is pursuing a major and rapid privatization and deregulation policy, including in the energy sector.

The policy includes reducing carbon dioxide emissions, increasing the share of gas in end use energy and power, conserving energy to decrease fossil fuel consumption, increasing the share of renewable energy and adding nuclear and hydro generating capacity.

IEA has therefore also analysed an alternative policy scenario which assumes that countries adopt policies to stimulate both the efficient use of energy and more environmentally friendly energy production.

Projections of end use energy demand by sector, apart from transport, build on the quot Energy Strategy and Policy for the Slovak Republic up to the year 2005 quot .

With every country largely controlling its own energy policy, Europe s energy market has become inefficient and excessively dependent on Russian supplies. To the extent that there has been an EU wide energy strategy, it has related to renewables, rather than the intersection of geopolitics and energy security.

Since 1990, energy policy has had a strong emphasis on the reduction of CO2 emissions, mainly through increased efficiency in the end use of energy, increased overall efficiency of the supply and conversion systems, and use of cleaner fuels and energy sources, including renewable energy sources.

Given its island location and limited endowment of energy resources, Ireland apos s main energy policy goals are to ensure security of supply, reduce dependence on imported fuel, improve energy efficiency in all economic sectors and develop its indigenous energy sources, mainly offshore natural gas and peat.

Civil society strongly recommends advancing the technical development and commercial viability of renewable energy systems by implementing a supportive policy framework as outlined by the Policy Recommendations for Renewable Energies emerging from the International Conference for Renewable Energies held in Bonn in 2004, and by committing long term financial support to the Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Partnership.

Of course, establishing an internal energy market is not just a matter of policy. The EU needs the right infrastructure to facilitate the movement of energy among states and regions.

Russia knows that when it comes to conducting a serious foreign and security policy, Europe is all mouth. Russia has pushed Europe around for years on energy issues, cutting bilateral deals with the bigger countries and opposing efforts to create a common European energy policy.

Jamaica has increasingly incorporated within its sustainable development strategy a sustainable energy policy, acknowledging the integral role which energy must play in promoting economic development. We are committed to ensuring access by our entire population to viable sources of energy.

General description This component seeks to improve industrial energy efficiency by contributing to the transformation of markets for energy efficient products and services by strengthening the capabilities of the energy service provider sector accelerating investments by industries in energy system optimization measures and increasing the deployment of new energy efficient industrial technologies through technical, financial and policy advisory services.

the need for national energy policy international cooperation in promoting sustainable energy systems effective ways of addressing issues such as proprietary rights, financing schemes and joint development and transfer of technologies.

Energy and fuel price liberalization is viewed as a significant bottleneck to effective climate change policy measures in Slovakia.

Third, where Europe has a serious internal policy, it is easier to establish a more serious external policy. The best example of this is energy policy and Russia, which wants a sphere of influence around its borders.

Chancellor Angela Merkel s coalition government withdrew from this agreement in 2010, but Fukushima forced the authorities to reconsider and to permanently end the use of nuclear energy. German energy policy now depends once more on the future deployment of renewable energy sources.
