Jump to content Text Only Version NW Forum on Ageing Coastal Forum ... Accessibility Sustainable Energy It is now widely accepted that current patterns of power generation and utilisation are unsustainable, and that there is a need to radically transform how we as a society perceive and achieve our objectives in this regard, particularly in the light of the serious threats presented by climate change. The concept of Renewable Energy conjures up images of solar panels and wind turbines generating electricity without damaging the environment and without further releasing the climate altering potential of fossil fuels. Yet the need to use energy in more efficient and effective ways is essential to compliment the development of these - and other - renewable energy resources. These pages look at the European and National perspective on sustainable and renewable energy along with details of the work of the North West Regional Assembly in this field, and in particular, the work of the Assembly in leading on the development of a Sustainable Energy Strategy for the North West.

Jump to content Text Only Version NW Forum on Ageing Coastal Forum ... Accessibility Sustainable Energy in the North West Regional Strategy , which aims to guide the development of a competitive and sustainable economy, states within its policies on business and the environment: "The North West must make its contribution to reducing the scale of, and the risks from, global warming, carbon dioxide emissions and climate change. The region can contribute by reducing its demand for energy through conservation and other measures, and by developing new sustainable sources of energy supply. The NWDA will therefore investigate, with the environmental agencies, the scope for developing alternative energy sources in the North West." The Department of Trade and Industry has carried out a series of studies into the development of renewable energy across the UK, one of its main objectives to assess the contribution each region could make towards the national target. The previously-mentioned study concluded that although the North West currently has only a small capacity for renewable energy, the potential exists to develop it substantially by 2010, to the extent that the amount of electricity generated from renewable sources would be increased from 1.3% to 8.5% - a target that could quite conceivably be surpassed if technological advancements continue apace and sufficient political will is brought to bear on the issue in the region.

Hydro-electric power The major nonfossil fuel source of energy in NSW is the Snowy Mountains Hydroelectric Scheme. In 1994-95 the Snowy Mountains Scheme met 6% of the total electricity demand in NSW and other hydroelectric facilities another 0.3%. In 1993 94 these figures were 6.6% and 0.5%, respectively.) Three private hydro-electric plants have a total capacity of 50 MW, an increase over the 25 MW capacity reported in 1995 (DoE data provided to the EPA 1997; EPA 1995a). Government approvals have also been given for new small hydroelectric power stations at the Burrendong and Copeton dams, and there are plans for three more at Pindari, Split Rock and Dapto. Landfill gas (already mentioned), wood and wood waste, and bagasse are all forms of biomass. Wood and bagasse accounted for 3.8% of final energy consumption in NSW in 1994-95, a significant increase from 2.1% in 1984-85, with consumption mainly by households (93%) for space heating (DoE data provided to the EPA 1997). The inventory of greenhouse gas emissions in NSW and the ACT for 1990 estimated the amount of fuel wood burned in 1990 at 1,754 kilotonnes of dry matter. This resulted in the emission of 2,638 gigagrams of carbon dioxide

SEI was approved by the Internal Revenue Service as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization in June 2000. The Institute focuses attention on: a) Potential technological solutions to meeting energy needs, including energy efficiency, renewable energy sources, nuclear power, carbon sequestration and other technologies, as well as alternative transportation fuels and smart growth strategies. b) The prospects for each technology to contribute to increasing future energy supply or reducing demand in a manner consistent with sustainable growth requirements (i.e., satisfying requirements for public health and safety, environmental protection, global peace and stability and affordability).
