1994 World Electricity Conference review
- Univ. of Glasgow (United Kingdom)
The 1994 World Electricity Conference was held in London, England, November 7--8, 1994. This year it shifted its focus to an examination of the firm advance in power sector restructuring across Europe, from Scandinavia to the Mediterranean and the Iberian Peninsula. Its speakers examined the rapid progress being made in the introduction of cooperation and competition within the continent`s electricity supply industry. Delegates heard news from Eastern Europe on the drive to improve energy efficiency across the region as part of the region`s program of priorities for the power industry. In North America, California`s progressive deregulation program was highlighted, and the opening up of the power equipment supply market in both the US and Europe post-GATT was discussed. The meeting also featured papers on new fuels and new technologies in power generation where developments in superconductivity, biomass, combined heat and power, and in fuel cells were evaluated.
