Prince Turki Al Faisal Al Saud, one of Saudi Arabia’s top spokesmen, has confirmed that Saudi Arabia has plans to generate 100% of its power from renewable sources, and low carbon forms of energy.

Two Citroen C1 models fitted with the inductive system as well as a standard plug-in charger will form part of the Coventry and Birmingham Low Emission Demonstrators (CABLED) consortium testing programme, which comes under the umbrella of the Technology Strategy Board's £25m Ultra-Low Carbon Vehicle Demonstrator competition.

Drayson Racing and Aston University have announced a collaboration to develop and demonstrate low carbon automotive technologies. The partnership will investigate 'second generation' biofuels produced from waste biomass such as straw, wood and sewage sludge to create high performance cars with reduced CO2 emissions.

The strategic objectives of the Program (issued under Decision 158/2008/QD-TTg by the Prime Minister) is to assess the extent of the impact of climate change on different areas, sectors and localities under each period, in order to build feasible action plans to successfully cope with climate change both for long term and short term.
