During the workshop, Da Nang Department of Science and Technology focused on disseminating Law on Energy Efficiency and informing about the projects and programs of energy saving which were being implemented. The Department also introduced project "Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Applications in ​​Da Nang City in the Period from 2011 to 2015".

The discovery is an important development in the worldwide effort to mimic the way plants make fuel from sunlight, a key step in creating a green energy economy. It was reported last week in Nature Materials by theorist Jens Norskov of the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University and a team of colleagues led by Ib Chorkendorff and Soren Dahl at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU).

Shropshire farmer Paul Parton could make more than £500,000 over the next 25 years by generating his own energy through solar PV panels installed on the roofs of his poultry units.Paul, who runs Parton’s Poulets in Market Drayton, is among the growing ranks of farmers nationwide finding new non-agricultural means of generating income in an increasingly competitive industry.

Theo kịch bản lạc quan nhất, năng lượng tái tạo có thể sẽ cung cấp 80% tiêu thụ năng lượng trên thế giới vào năm 2050, cũng được xác định là những giải pháp để chống lại biến đổi khí hậu. Giáo sư Ottmar Edenhofer, đồng Chủ tịch các nhóm công tác của Giec, nhấn mạnh mọi quan điểm được đưa ra để giảm lượng khí thải cho thấy năng lượng tái tạo sẽ đóng một vai trò quan trọng trong việc giảm thiểu ô nhiễm môi trường.

The Eco Fire Pot Stove is an innovation that uses biodiesel, which allows women in developing countries to cook using a comparatively much cleaner cooking gas fuel than the toxic fuel-producing substances like wood, kerosene and coal. The stove is cheaper in price for this is now made of sheet metal but is also possible to make the stove from scrap metal, clay and bricks, which means the cost spent will be more only for the burner.

The Japanese carmaker said it wants to accelerate the development and eventual implementation of wireless charging for cars. “The charging of a plug-in hybrid or electric vehicle could be as simple and convenient as parking near an embedded charger at a home or in a parking facility,” Toyota said in a press release.
