Technology Transfers Developing Renewable Energy Sources...

Technology Transfers: Putting Theory into Practice Climate change is an increasingly demanding issue as global population continues to grow, energy sources are being depleted and cooperation between actors to take action is often difficult to enforce. Renewable energy is a growing technology. With the depletion of fossil fuels as well as increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere due to fossil fuel burning, energy dependency will have to shift to renewable technologies such as solar photovoltaic, wind, hydroelectric and geothermal. Unfortunately, these technologies are expensive and building new or altering old plants to allow for their use is costly. Because developing countries are in transition and have a growing energy demand,†¦show more content†¦These projects must transfer cleaner technology as well as foster sustainable development in Non Annex I countries. In Joint Implementation, both countries participating are committed to reductions under the Protocol (Cullet, 175). Flexible mechanisms lessen the financial burden of lowering emissions for Annex I countries and also involve developing nations in the international effort to reduce greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Non- Annex I countries must be begin to adhere to the emission regulations of the Kyoto Protocol. In theory, technology transfers through Cleaner Development Mechanisms and Joint Implementations are an effective way to introduce cleaner technology, aiding both developing and developed countries; developing countries gain new knowledge and different techniques to shift their dependency away from nonrenewable energy sources and developed countries adhere to Kyoto provisions. This exchange is necessary and appears to be flawless, yet such transfers must be closely regulated to ensure the livelihoods of the people in developing nations rather than the economic benefits such actions will have for private corporations. Economic and social security must be granted to the developing countries in order for this mechanism to be followed and agreed upon. Technology transfers under the Kyoto Protocol further define the division between the North and the South and mayShow MoreRelatedRenewable Energy As A Means Of Reducing The Use Of Fossil Fuels1412 Words   |  6 Pagesdevelopments in renewable energy as a means of reducing the use of fossil fuels OUTLINE Thesis statement: benefits of renewable energy decreaseing the consumption of fossil fuels outweighs its disadvantages.

VIKAS PATEL, 1402207, NITIE Mumbai EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Developing countries needs huge investment in energy sector to achieve development goals Deployment of new clean technology can help meet two objective in energy sector: to improve access to and reliability on modern energy services and to help shift to sustainable energy development. Modern era technology has the potential to increase the availability of cleaner energy at low cost and maintainingRead MoreGlobal Dependence On Fossil Fuel1485 Words   |  6 Pagesproportion of Renewables must increase to around 50% of the energy mix in most countries and is expected to be over 70% in countries Brazil and Africa. Energy efficiencies and low carbon energy carriers for heating and cooling can decarbonize electricity, significantly reducing the share of fossil fuels to less than 50% in the total energy requirement. Sharing best practices across borders can help transfer innovative technologies and support energy transition plans for many of the developing countriesRead MoreThe Transition Of Energy Systems1677 Words   |  7 PagesThe energy systems seen in the present day a re vastly different from those seen in the past two decades amid the ongoing transition of energy systems. The issue of climate change and the alarmingly high levels of Global Greenhouse Gas (GCG) emissions have meant there has been a transition in energy systems as countries worldwide continuingly proceed into a post-carbon world. Developing energy systems of the future is one of the central challenges to policy makers, a challenge which is â€Å"complex andRead MoreImplementation Of Geothermal Energy As An Alternative Energy1459 Words   |  6 PagesTitle : Implementation Of Geothermal Energy As An Alternative Energy AHMAD HAFIZUDDIN BIN ISMAIL (EC15132) FIRDAUS BIN MAT SHUKRI (EC15133) MUHAMMAD SUHAIMI BIN MOKHTAH (EC) AMAR FAISSAL BIN KAMARUDDIN (EC15134) Faculty of Electrical and Electronic Engineering UNIVERSITI MALAYSIA PAHANG (UMP), 26600 PEKAN, PAHANG, MALAYSIA Abstract This report presents an alternative energy is any energy source that from fossil fuel. We need to turn to alternative energy in general. Firstly, we were in dangerRead MoreSaudi Arabi A Large Amount Of Energy1388 Words   |  6 PagesAbstract There has been an increasing growth in the development of new energy resources that can compete with the energy demands of the growing population of the world. In this manner, a number of steps have been taken in the major parts of the world. Solar power is been in use since a long time. With the increasing demands of oil and gas there is a rapid decrease in the supply of these natural resources, and hence, the authorities are looking for alternative ways to supply the power to the exceedingRead MoreSolar Energy Technology And Its Policies1385 Words   |  6 PagesSolar Energy Technology and its Policies Increased energy consumption in the world today is a growing concern. Most of the energy consumption today comes from fossil fuels. Fossil fuels mainly consist of oil, coal, and natural gas as the most commonly used ones. These products are non-renewable sources meaning that one day it will be all used up. But the issues with fossil fuels extend past its eventual finish, the burning of them leads to greenhouse gas emissions and in non-producing countries thereRead MorePolicy Brief On Sustainable Energy And Green Industry Puerto Rico1703 Words   |  7 PagesPolicy brief on sustainable energy/green industry Puerto Rico Purpose section According to United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) the term green industry is defined as an industry that ensures sustainable and viable future with no harm on our environment (UNIDO 2016). In Puerto Rico, manufacturing industry accounts for about 46.3 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This indicates that Puerto Rico is highly dependent on different manufacturing industries for its revenue. SimilarlyRead MoreChina Has Increased Its Installed Wind Energy Capacity878 Words   |  4 Pagesits renewable energy profile. China has increased its installed wind energy capacity from 1.260 GW to 62.36 GW from 2005 to 2011. This can be compared with the United States that saw an increased wind energy capacity from 8.7 GW to 45.98 GW in the same time period. This is a 10.2\% increase annually versus 6.2\% in the United States. As shown in figure ef{AC_Sys_Voltages}, China installed 45.6\% of the total wind energy installed around the world in 2013.
