Siemens has launched its renewable energy business arm in India to get a sizable share in one of the fastest growing markets in the world. The German engineering giant has opened its business in India at just the right time given the abundant economic and policy incentives offered by the government to the project developers as well as manufactures in the renewable energy sector.

Các bên cũng đã ký nghị định bổ sung Hiệp định về mua-bán khí đốt tự nhiên và thống nhất dự thảo Hiệp định giữa các chính phủ Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan và Ấn Độ về thực hiện dự án đường ống dẫn khí đốt TAPI.

The 27-nation bloc could make 90 billion liters (24 billion gallons) of so-called next-generation ethanol in 2020, about 65 percent of predicted fossil gasoline use, the London-based group said in a study. At least 100 refineries a year could be built in the bloc from 2013, it said. The EU currently has no commercial factories that refine biofuels from plant waste.

A report published by an Indian Defense ministry-backed think tank has proposed for the establishment of an international space-based solar energy program with India and the United States initiating this massive project. The report is prepared by Peter Garretson, a US Air Force lieutenant colonel, working with the Institue of Defense Studies and Analyses, New Delhi. The reports calls for the Indian and the United States’ governments to extend their strategic partnerships to initiate this pathbreaking project and make the space-based solar energy a commercially viable business venture by 2025.

On September 8, 2010, at the headquarters of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Energy Conservation Office organized a ceremony to present an energy label titled Vietnam Energy Star and hand over energy efficiency certifications to three compact lamp manufacturers: Dien Quang, Philips Vietnam and Rang Dong.

In earlier September, in Dong Thap, representatives of the Center for Industrial Promotion & Consultancy Development reported and discussed the results of energy audit for businesses in the province. This is the program following the national energy policy which has been supported by the Ministry of Industry and Trade in some Southern provinces and cities (called ANEP 2).

Nhằm đổi mới công nghệ, tăng cường sử dụng thiết bị hiện đại nâng cao chất lượng hiệu quả, tiết kiệm năng lượng (TKNL) trong sản xuất xi măng, từ ngày 22 đến 23 tháng 9 năm 2010, tại thành phố Hạ Long, tỉnh Quảng Ninh Hội Vật liệu xây dựng Việt Nam phối hợp với Công ty Polysius AG (CHLB Đức) tổ chức Hội thảo với chủ đề “Công nghệ mới, thiết bị hiện đại, hiệu quả và TKNL trong sản xuất xi măng”.

The Vietnam Academy of Sciences and Technology (VAST) said that under the cooperation with the Institute of Applied Chemistry under the Russia Science Center, the Institute of Chemistry of Natural Substances under VAST has produced alcohol with ethanol concentration at 99.98 percent and the total content of organic impurities at less than 16ppm, without using chemical agents.

The Vinh Phuc Province Department of Science and Technology recently worked with the Promoting Energy Conservation in Small and Medium Scale Enterprise Project (PECSME) under the Ministry of Science and Technology to organize a training course on energy conservation in small and mediums-sized enterprises in the areas of textile-garment, food processing, paper and pulp.

The Egyptian wind energy industry is all set to contribute an additional 2,500 MW capacity to the nation. Under progress are field studies towards establishing wind farms by means of the private sector. These wind farms will be ideally located in the Gulf of Suez while slated to become operational by the year 2014.

A new study reported in the journal Applied Physics Letters in August this year (published by the American Institute of Physics), explains how solar energy could potentially be collected by using oxide materials that have the element selenium. A team at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Berkeley, California, embedded selenium in zinc oxide, a relatively affordable material that could make more efficient use of the sun’s power.

This technique has an enormous potential. Only in the United States, for instance, the total surface of roads, highways and open parking lots is estimated in over 100,000 square kilometres. The proposal comes from an American company which, using funds granted by the US Federal Highway Administration, is designing resistant photovoltaic panels on which cars can drive, with tiny prisms built into the surface in order for tyres to grip.

The Swiss manufacturer Trunz Water Systems and a California-based reverse osmosis company, Spectra Watermakers have developed a new eco-friendly water purifier designed for use in disaster stricken areas where conventional energy sources are unavailable or too expensive. The new system, called the Solar Container, is capable of generating more than 8,000 gallons of potable water per day and is powered by renewable wind and solar energy.

The University of Cambridge has come up with a low cost organic solar cell that opens up some intriguing new possibilities in solar energy design. Although the Cambridge team is focused on bringing large scale photovoltaic devices to the market, the new technology could also lend itself to a smaller canvas, yielding such products as solar-energy generating umbrellas and canopies. For that matter, even small objects like plastic cups and straws could some day double as mini solar power generators.
