satisfies almost 33.6% of the world energy needs. It is also the most traded energy resource in the world. The demand side factors are guided by the energy needs of the world which is still dependent on non-renewable sources, while supply is determined by oil rich countries. The prices are fluctuating owing to influence of the spot market. Trends in Demand An above average GDP growth in non OECD countries has significantly pushed the demand for all types of energy in an upward direction. Where

Barriers to implement renewable energy sources in India Role of renewable energy in India India has recently been moving strongly towards renewable energy sources making it a leader in renewable energy technology applications. India has also set aggressive targets for adding more capacity in using renewable energy sources. The target set by the government is to be able to generate 55GW by the end of 2022 (13th five-year plan). Renewable energy technologies in India can be divided to near commercial

Principal Research Results “Energy Chain”, A New Concept in Evaluating Future Energy Conservation and Greenhouse Abatement Alternatives and Effectiveness Background The energy demand and supply system consists of many kinds of energy subsystems, for example, grid network, fuel (city gas, LPG, kerosene and so on) networks, prospective fuel (hydrogen) networks and demand-side equipments such as heat pump and cogeneration. In recent years, many evaluation methods and factors have been proposed

Energy Resource Plan Energy conservation is the idea of reducing and preserving the natural resources while limiting the amount of waste that is put back into the environment caused by human consumption of energy. There are multiple items that are of importance to energy conservation. The most important part is to the preserve the natural environment. Protecting and preserving the environment will allow the environment to grow and thrive so that future generation can enjoy and have the same

told of the potential energy sources from the farthest reaches of the world. Dr. Strobel found that an endophtic fungus called Gliocladium roseum that shows the same essence as Diesel fuel. The same diesel that is produced by man from crude oil. He found that the endophtic fungus was produced to protect the plant from other endophtic fungus. It was interesting to find out plants have natural abilities to protect themselves from the smallest organisms. The production of an energy source from an micro

sources of energy. Secondary sources of energy should be non-renewable resources such as oil and natural gas. The government should be required to make use of renewable resources, implement conservation plans and minimize the environmental impact that results from extracting, processing and using natural resources. The first step in co-existing with nature is making use of renewable resources. The federal government should require the state to implement strategies to use renewable energy such as

meaning of consumption because there are so many ways it can be viewed: “For physicists, matter and energy cannot be consumed, so consumption is conceived as transformations of matter and energy with increased entropy. For economists, consumption is spending on consumer goods and services and thus distinguished from their production and distribution. For ecologists, consumption is obtaining energy and nutrients by eating something else, mostly green plants or other consumers of green plants. And
