Energy Efficiency Policies (1995)

Operators in this sector shall be involved in the implementation of this policy.

Policy issues Energy and environment

(v) The need for an energy policy

China has an energy policy based on radical energy efficiency and leap frog technology.

Bush s Bad Faith Energy Policy

Agriculture and energy sector policy reform

(c) Development and implementation of rural energy policies

(a) Through national energy policies, national governments strongly influence the quantity and source of energy within a country, the operation of centralized or national electrical utilities, tax policies and subsidies to certain energy sources

Energy security is the overriding policy objective.

It was particularly necessary to mainstream sustainable energy solutions within global energy policy.

With every country largely controlling its own energy policy, Europe s energy market has become inefficient and excessively dependent on Russian supplies. To the extent that there has been an EU wide energy strategy, it has related to renewables, rather than the intersection of geopolitics and energy security.

(i) Furthering synergies between energy policy and other policy areas developed in the context of greenhouse gas limitation reduction

Sometimes people claim that renewables are actually cheaper. But if renewables were cheaper, they wouldn t need subsidies, and we wouldn t need climate policies.

The availability, cost and diffusion of sustainable energy technologies will depend strongly on policy, including on energy costing policy that allows environmental impacts to be reflected in pricing structures.

There have been partial reviews of the plan since its enactment, but no actual formulation of new energy policies.

20. Most OECD countries have de facto energy policies.One expert expressed doubts about the extent tto which this assertion applied to the United States where he felt that policies were reduced to certain regulatory functions rather than to a conscious energy development strategy.

(d) Local action in the field of energy policies and measures should address

Relatively few activities and resources are devoted to policy advice, policy development, capacity building and pilot projects.

IEA has therefore also analysed an alternative policy scenario which assumes that countries adopt policies to stimulate both the efficient use of energy and more environmentally friendly energy production.

The energy policy requires energy services to be supplied not only at the minimum price but also with the minimum impact on the environment.

Indeed, the internal and external aspects of energy policy are interrelated. Europe cannot build an efficient external policy without achieving a minimum of harmonization of member state policies regarding energy flows, interconnections, infrastructure, investment, and greater progress toward a single energy market.

Most Parties use a variety of policy devices, including economic instruments to tax energy consumption, or provide financial incentives for energy efficiency investments.

But energy policies continued to focus on finding more fossil fuels.

So I decided to give a public talk criticizing the lack of an appropriate energy policy.

(c) The Policy Recommendations for Renewable Energies offer an exemplary menu of strategies for decision makers in public and private institutions.

Employment and livelihood as a focus of industrial development and energy policy

(f) Develop national energy policies and regulatory frameworks that will help create the necessary economic, social and institutional conditions in the energy sector.

In the past two years some significant policy instruments have been introduced, such as the Governmental Water Resource Policy (2004), the National Policy for Integral Solid Waste Management (2004), the National Environmental Education Policy (2004), the National Fire Management Policy (2005) and the Soil Conservation Policy (ongoing).

Civil society strongly recommends advancing the technical development and commercial viability of renewable energy systems by implementing a supportive policy framework as outlined by the Policy Recommendations for Renewable Energies emerging from the International Conference for Renewable Energies held in Bonn in 2004, and by committing long term financial support to the Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Partnership.

(a) To promote innovation, clean energy and energy efficiency and conservation improve policy, regulatory and financing frameworks and accelerate the deployment of cleaner technologies

Private electricity producers, for example, will not invest in large scale renewable energy generation if the government does not have long term climate and energy policies or plans for spurring construction of long distance transmission lines to carry new low carbon energy sources to population centers. Such messy policy details have never much bothered free market economists.

The Government s policy priorities are to improve energy security, economic efficiency and local air quality.

The trend scenario does not include the effects of the most recent additions to existing policy in the Third White Paper on Energy Policy (December 1995) and the CO2 Reduction Plan (September 1996).

Welcoming efforts by States that have embarked on policies and programmes that seek to expand the use of new and renewable energy for sustainable development,

national energy mix, and also takes note with appreciation of the Policy Recommendations for Renewable Energies, which provide a menu of options to decision makers.

23. Reaffirms that, in order to implement the Platform for Action, a reformulation of policies and reallocation of resources may be needed, but that some policy changes may not necessarily have financial implications
