Post-Co-op Reflection A day after I completed my second cooperative at the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center (MassCEC), I immediately transitioned to a new position at a startup company called EnergySage. On my first day at EnergySage, which is an online solar power marketplace that was created to help consumers learn more about solar and make comparisons between pre-screened solar installers and their quotes, I realized how unique my experience was at MassCEC and how thankful I was for it. Aside

Energy Industry Focus on Renewables Ian Baynes – BUS376A – Sustainable Marketing Green technology is booming, yet a worldwide decrease in green spending has taken place for a second year in a row. According to a report done by Frankfurt School and sponsored by Bloomberg Finance, worldwide green spending for the fiscal year 2013 was $216 billion. U.S. Spending alone peaked to $50.8 billion in 2011 (CNN), before dropping to its current level of $36 billion (Frankfurt). There is a treasure-trove of

just an idea anymore. It’s Reality! The company I work for Duke Energy is a key player in helping change the power generation industry and doing this will help me make a difference in the world while working for Duke Energy. Power generation of yesterday was a process of making power and not worrying about the environment, but today its more about making power while doing good for the environment.

The transportation management, green building design, sustainable residential community and engaging students, staff, and faculties all work together to

individuals and communities. Important considerations for a sustainable project: - energy (including embodied energy) - water - waste - pollution - user health and well being Reflect the structure of energy assessment methods e.g BREEAM - the design process - the construction process - the materials used - the amount of energy such as heating, cooling or lighting needed to run the building over its life - the amount of energy such as power to workplace equipment or catering used by occupants

two components: a. Capacity building training, seminar, conferences, FIs Receiving Capacity Building Support, Financing of DG, projects by PFIs, Market need assessment, RE manuals, Set up RSF with Bank; b. Advisory services for the development of Energy Efficiency market. For component a, the following indicators are measuring the project’s output achievement: 1. Number of entities receiving concessional investment; 2. Number of reports (assessments, surveys, manuals, Phase I/strategic option reports)

When creating a working definition of a sustainable global environment there is a short definition and a long definition. The short of definition of a sustainable global environment is an environment in which all living things can co-exist together while having their essential needs to sustain life met. This definition, while ideal, is probably not realistic due to the fact that humans in many cases are not simply satisfied with living with only the essential needs that sustain life. That leads to

They target individual home owners through SME. 2. They also target business organisations

sources of energy and their effects on the environment. People have started to realize the negative effects of non-renewable energy, such as greenhouse gas emissions and other negative effects on the environment, but neglect to take action and implement more ecofriendly energy sources. For the past 300 years the world has been predominantly powered by coal and other non-renewable energy sources, but now it is time to move past these energy sources and transition to more efficient, clean energy like nuclear
