Primary energy demand

Scientific and technological aspects of primary energy supply and energy transformation

Primary energy production by fuel type (petajoules)

Primary energy for transport (per tonne km or passenger km)

The World Energy Council estimates that nearly two thirds of all primary energy is lost before it is converted to useful energy.

Primary energy demand by fuel type, as well as electricity (petajoules)

Primary energy per unit of production in the industrial and commercial sectors

The development of our own energy base is the primary prerequisite for our survival.

Brazilian firms have been investing mostly in primary industries such as energy and mining, led by Petrobras in oil and energy (UNCTAD 2004a).

Primary energy demand is expected to increase significantly in the electricity generation and transport sectors.

About 80 per cent of world primary energy is supplied from fossil fuels, a finite resource.

The primary assumptions and methods used to estimate energy requirements in 2000 seem plausible and transparent.

Italy is heavily dependent on fossil fuels which account for 90 per cent of primary energy needs and also very dependent on imports, as over three quarters of primary energy, including oil, coal, natural gas and electricity, is currently imported.

NEW YORK The surest bet on the future of energy is the need for low carbon energy supplies. Around 80 of the world s primary energy today is carbon based coal, oil, and gas.

Energy end use in the residential, commercial and institutional as well as industrial and energy transformation sectors remained the primary target areas of CO2 mitigation measures.

Energy end use in the residential, commercial and institutional as well as industrial and energy transformation sectors remained the primary target areas for CO2 mitigation measures.

The economic restructuring, as well as removal of subsidies and an increase in prices for imported energy to world market levels, have reduced primary energy consumption, and provided incentives for the introduction of new technology, energy efficiency and energy conservation measures.

Although CO2 mitigation is not the primary policy objective, these regulations affect the amount and share of fossil fuel consumption in primary energy transformation, which influences CO2 levels.

(a) Introduction of renewable energy (such as photovoltaic systems one hundred million (kilowatt hour) and wind power generation kilolitre oil equivalent share in primary energy supply (per cent) ).

the role of technology in making primary energy production environmentally friendly technology and the development of new sources of energy technological solutions to the energy dilemma scenarios for the 21st century the special case of electricity.

Low carbon primary energy means three options renewable energy, including wind, solar, geothermal, hydropower, and biomass nuclear energy and carbon capture and sequestration, which means using fossil fuels to create energy, but trapping the CO2 emissions that result and storing the carbon safely underground.

There is no nuclear generating capacity in Ireland and peat represents approximately 14 per cent of total primary energy supply.

They allow the mix of primary energy sources, the combination of centralized and decentralized systems, and can be kept relatively small.

Much (though not all) of the global environmental crisis stems from the world s fossil fuel based energy system. More than 80 of all primary energy in the world comes from coal, oil, and gas.

The energy and transformation sector includes activities related to the exploration and production of energy resources, transformation from primary to secondary forms such as burning coal to produce electricity and distribution to end users.

However, while the absolute amount of worldwide renewable energy use has been rising significantly, the overall share of renewables in the world's total primary energy supply has increased only marginally over the past three decades.

And that continues into the future with the renewables that we're developing today, reaching maybe 30 percent of primary energy by mid century.

Scenarios produced by entities such as the International Energy Agency, the World Energy Council and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) all suggest that renewable energy sources could provide a much greater share of global primary energy demand in the coming decades if the appropriate investment and incentive structures are put into place.

The proportion of nuclear energy production to total energy production in Lithuania is today is the highest in the world. Last year nuclear energy production was 84 per cent of total produced energy. Nuclear energy is produced in one of the world apos s most powerful nuclear plants, located near Ignalina in north eastern Lithuania. Naturally, the safety of the plant has been of primary importance to us.

These trends depend very much on underlying assumptions about economic growth, global population, the costs of technologies and different primary energy sources, and other similar factors.

Growth in shale energy will mean more investment, production, and jobs in the energy sector itself. Lower gas prices will boost manufacturing production, particularly in downstream industries like petrochemicals and primary metals that use natural gas as fuel and feedstock.

Linked to this, the Organization will carry out activities to ensure that the interest and needs of the developing countries are taken fully into account in the development of hydrogen energy technologies, for hydrogen complements the primary energy source and provides energy in a convenient form to the consumer at the desired location and time.

Other than regular primary schools there are special primary schools and institutes, parallel primary schools (music and ballet), and primary schools for adults.

Its primary objective is to provide policy options and recommendations to the Economic and Social Council on energy matters, including the consideration of their relation to environment and development.

A majority of Parties include energy market restructuring as an important policy which has implications for GHG emissions, though emissions reduction is not the primary purpose of the reforms.

Primary education is realized through primary schools, special primary schools for children with development problems, and departments for primary education of adults (after 16).

Regarding renewable sources of energy, in recent years Israel had developed ways of creating alternative energy and had implemented its 2002 decision that at least 2 per cent of electricity would originate from clean energy, increasing by a further 2 per cent every three years, the primary vehicle being the approval of 500 megawatt solar thermal power plants.

Noting that the primary responsibility for meeting the energy needs of their populations lay with Governments, the Subcommittee recognized the need for the involvement of other relevant stakeholders at the local, national, regional and international levels to formulate and implement appropriate energy policies and programmes.

The team strongly recommends the inclusion in the second national communication of information on these recent developments such as the energy strategy and the federal energy efficiency programme which would serve to mitigate GHG emissions even if that was not their primary or sole objective.
