    ETDEWEB


    • The world's largest energy RD&D "knowledge"base (4.4 million records)
    • More efficient than a Google search (87 percent unique!)
    • Avoids duplication of research efforts
    • Accelerates research collection process
    • Identifies experts in particular research areas around the world
    • "ETDEWEB is clearly the information system of reference; many national websites on energy RTD link to ETDEWEB."

    ETDE Membership


    Task-sharing: prepare and submit records of energy RTD activities published within the member country (from journals, technical reports, conference proceedings, books, etc.), including full text when available.
    Cost-sharing: make contribution to cover annual cost of the exchange (i.e., primarily, ETDEWEB), consisting of "base" fee and "additional"contribution (related to national energy R&D expenditures relative to other member countries).
    • Contracting party has right to determine ETDEWEB access policies and any fees within its national borders.
  • 2010 IEA Clean Energy Technologies Symposium

    Conclusion


    • Becoming a member in ETDE will:
    • Increase national research capabilities
    • Provide a sound basis for decision-making
    • Drive innovation
