Meeting the Energy Challenge
Author: DTI, UK
Date: May 2007
Description: Energy is essential in almost every aspect of our lives and for the success of our economy. We face two long-term energy challenges:
• tackling climate change by reducing carbon dioxide emissions both within the UK and abroad; and
• ensuring secure, clean and affordable energy as we become increasingly dependent on imported fuel.
The White Paper sets out the Government’s international and domestic energy strategy to respond to these changing circumstances, address the long term energy challenges we face and deliver our four energy policy goals:
• to put ourselves on a path to cutting CO2 emissions by some 60% by about 2050, with real progress by 2020;
• to maintain the reliability of energy supplies;
• to promote competitive markets in the UK and beyond;
• to ensure that every home is adequately and affordably heated.
It shows how we are implementing the measures set out in the Energy Review Report in 2006, as well as those announced since, including in the Pre-Budget Report in 2006 and the Budget in 2007.

Mitigation- Summary for Policymakers
Author: UN Intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC)
Date: May 2007
Description: The UN Intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC) has just published the last in a series of three separate reports on climate change today in Bangkok. In many ways this is the most important report in the series for the renewable energy space as it looks at ways to mitigate the impact of climate change. Previous reports looked at the scientific evidence for climate change and adapting to climate change. A key recommendation in this report is the promotion of a greater role for renewable energy in the world’s primary energy supply. "It's stunning in its brilliance and relevance," Rajendra Pachauri, chair of the group responsible for the report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, said of the study. "It's a remarkable step forward."
