Primary energy demand is expected to increase significantly in the electricity generation and transport sectors.

In South Africa, nuclear power is the second largest source of electricity, accounting for 6.8 per cent of the country's electricity generation capacity and 3 per cent of the primary energy supply.

Removal of subsidies in the coal industry, as well as developments in the electricity sector and in the gas market, led to a shift to natural gas for electricity generation.

It also has a sizeable nuclear industry, which presently accounts for about 18 per cent of the electricity generation capacity.

Studies are under way to seek ways of improving the efficiency of oil shale electricity generation and less carbon intensive alternatives.

South Africa, for example, reported that coal currently provides more than 90 per cent of the energy for its electricity generation and is expected to dominate power generation until 2040.

The programme will focus on electricity, health and income generation and will be implemented by UNOMIG and UNDP.

The mix of fuels used for electricity generation changed significantly in the United Kingdom in the period from 1990 to 1994.

The frequency of attacks on Iraq's infrastructure, such as electricity generation and oil facilities, has decreased since the election, but they continue to have an adverse impact on the availability of electricity and on oil revenues.

Much more work will be needed for a new generation of clean technologies for heat, fuels and electricity to reach the mainstream market.

In addition to electricity generation, nuclear technology may help tackle some old as well as contemporary development challenges that we confront.

(a) Energy and resource saving measures in the field of electricity generation, its distribution and consumption, in transport, industry, residential, commercial and other sectors

South Africa reported on its 60 billion tonnes of coal reserves and its dependence on this energy source for 90 per cent of its electricity generation.

The extraction, transportation, processing and use of primary fuels both fossil and biomass and the generation and transmission of electricity have detrimental effects at all physical scales.

Other resources like fuel oil, diesel, light crude, solar, and gas are also available as means of electricity generation, but their costs are all quite prohibitive.

While power generation was the first segment of the electricity industry to be reformed, more recently distribution and retail supply have also become areas for reform.

A recent study has revealed that we will need to augment our electricity generation nearly ten fold in the next four to five decades.

Annual crop residues (including pressed seedcake) can be burned throughout the year in local electricity generation plants, thereby smoothing out the production income cycle.

Along with the market liberalization, regulations set a guaranteed market for alternative electricity generation, e.g. from renewables, combined heat and power (CHP) and waste.

Brazil reported that more than 90 per cent of its electricity generation was from hydropower, which explains why its energy sector was not the biggest source of GHG emissions.

However, in the last two decades several factors have led to a stagnation in nuclear power construction in most industrialized countries overcapacity in electricity generation in some countries, concern about nuclear accidents, concern about the management of nuclear waste and, lastly, the use of gas in combined cycle, which has emerged as an economically very attractive option for the generation of heat and electricity in many countries.

Industrial production and electricity generation remain below 1990 levels, agricultural production has also declined, and GDP is not likely to exceed 1990 levels by 2000.

On the contrary technical assistance and transfers of technology should be undertaken to promote nuclear applications in research, electricity generation, agriculture and medicine, while exercising control over radioactive sources.

Furthermore, aerial bombardments destroyed stockpiles of matériel, industrial and oil facilities and electricity generation plants, leading to the release of thousands of tons of toxins into the air, the water and the earth.

There, competition in electricity generation has spurred shifts from coal and oil to natural gas, which is burned in high efficiency units, and increased productivity in nuclear plants.

Since 1996, when Sri Lanka had established a division on alternative energy within the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Government had undertaken activities on the establishment of fuel wood plantations, use of biogas as transport fuel, industrial heat and electricity generation, and assessments on hydro electricity and solar and wind energy sources.

ElectriCity.

For his part, the Interim President cited as priorities the development of the agricultural sector through irrigation resources, the building of roads and electricity generation, and the need to combat deforestation and environmental degradation.

The damage sustained by the electricity generation plants has halted the work of heavy water treatment units in cities and industrial areas, and huge quantities of untreated, dangerous waste have seeped directly into rivers.

Much of the future increases in coal fired electricity generation will come from strategically important developing countries like China and India. In 2006 alone, China added about 93,000 megawatts of coal fired electricity generating capacity, and this trend is expected to continue as the country tries to meet its huge energy needs.

Ceilings on standards for air pollutants and carbon emissions promote clean electricity generation and ensure that electricity production is cleaner and comparable in cost in all areas of a country, thereby ensuring that no community comes under pressure to reduce the stringency of its energy efficiency policies for the sake of local industrial development.

Oh, the bottom of this box has electricity in here, but this doesn't have electricity.

The combination of low investment electricity generation for households and the ability to sell surpluses, scale up output, and access pre existing distribution and maintenance networks bridges a crucial gap in the energy market.

Our energy plan envisages a substantial increase in nuclear electricity generation by the year 2030, representing an increase in the share of nuclear energy from the current 0.8 per cent to 4.2 per cent.

(electricity adjusted)

Water, electricity..

Electricity for cities, at its best, is what's called baseload electricity.

Examples of UNIDO's rural energy projects being developed or replicated include renewable energy based electricity generation for isolated mini grids, renewable energy based rural ICT systems and the application of modern biomass technologies in rural areas.

Yousef Mohammed In other words, we're treating electricity with electricity, rather than treating electricity with the chemicals that we're using nowadays.

One example of UNIDO's rural energy projects is that for renewable energy based electricity generation for isolated mini grids in Zambia, which was approved for financing by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) in May 2004.
