Tokyo City proper has again decided to incorporate recent energy-saving and renewable-energy technology, calling it’s latest report “Tokyo Specifications for Reduced and Renewable Energy.”

MANAGERS and supervisors from 50 industrial and service companies in Cebu attended the two-day national training workshop on energy efficiency and conservation at the Crown Regency Mactan.

Royal Bank of Scotland and NatWest have thrown their weight behind the turbines which will be a welcomed announcement for farmers who want to use reneawble energy on-farm but don’t have the capital to invest.

Rappenecker Hutte is a 350-year-old farm house in south Germany which has been serving as a hikers' inn for several years. The hut in 1995 was the starting point of the downhill course of the Mountain Bike World Championship and is a well-known station of the Black Forest Ultra Bike Marathon.

Google have amazing ratings for employee satisfaction, serve 100 percent local food in its massive cafeteria, and power its "Googleplex" with over 9,000 solar panels situated atop its four main buildings, but now Google plans to help homeowners get solar panels to power their own homes as well.

EVNSPC has directed Power Companies to coordinate with the localities to propagate the Law on Energy Efficiency and Conservation; strictly implement requirements, directives, resolutions and instructions of the Government, Ministry of Industry and Trade and the Electricity of Vietnam on saving power.

Dutch study finds birds avoid offshore wind turbines, while marine life finds shelter and new habitats. It is the evidence proponents of offshore wind farms have been waiting for: a Dutch study has found that offshore wind turbines have "hardly any negative effects" on wildlife, and may even benefit animals living beneath the waves.

"The fish aim to align themselves to optimise their forward propulsion," he writes, and this can be adapted in a turbine array to maximise energy extraction.

The Army is seeking to install more large-scale renewable energy installations, such as this solar system at Nellis Air Force base in Nevada.

The US solar industry is getting a boost from the Export-Import Bank of the United States (Ex-Im Bank) - it's providing $75 million in long-term loans to export US-made solar panels to India.

The billboard will be disconnected from the grid to prove the energy used comes entirely from the onsite renewable technologies. The solar panels and turbines are expected to generate 12.6kw a day to light up the red lettering from first light or first wind until about three o'clock the following morning.

Many green taxes are raised to help fund Britain's attempt to generate a third of its electricity from wind power by 2020. However, the CBI, the business group, pointed out yesterday that many taxes have become "counter-productive".

Speaking at the Scottish Renewables onshore wind conference in Glasgow, energy minister Fergus Ewing said that the new standardised approach to measuring the carbon footprint of wind farms would help streamline planning processes and maximise emissions savings.

"We are planning to put 100 solar-powered ATMs in various areas in Miami in the near future," Robert Rico, chairman of financing for the Expert Group, said. "The wonderful thing about these machines is that they are not costly and will provide our customers with the chance to contribute to helping the environment."

Electricity saving for the interests of the nation and people has been ingrained into the actions of every citizen. By practical deeds, specific measures, many localities have effectively implemented the work of saving power.

China’s biggest wind turbine maker has taken a large step into the European market long dominated by local manufacturers, with a €1.5bn ($2.1bn) Irish wind farm deal.

The U.S. Solar Market Insight: Q1 2011 from the Solar Energy Industries Association and GTM Research shows that the solar industry continues to be one of the fastest growing sectors of the economy. Grid-connected photovoltaics grew 66% over the first quarter of 2010, with a cumulative grid-connected solar electric installations have reached more than 2.85 gigawatts (GW), enough to power nearly 600,000 US homes.

SunPower, the most popular solar panel company in California, which is the clear solar leader in the U.S., was recently awarded the Guinness Book of World Records Award for providing "the most efficient commercially available photovoltaic modules on the market." The award was presented at the Intersolar conference in Germany.

The government of the western state of Gujarat in India has announced the establishment of Asia’s largest solar park that will provide 800 million units of power in two years when commissioned with a power production capacity of 500 MW.

Researchers from the Universities of East Anglia, York, Nottingham and Manchester are using nanotechnology 100,000 times smaller than the thickness of a human hair to try and solve the world’s looming energy crisis.
