Fostering a Renewable Energy Technology Industry: An InternationalComparison of Wind Industry Policy Support Mechanisms

Lewis, Joanna ; Wiser, Ryan - Energy Policy

This article examines the importance of national and sub-national policies in supporting the development of successful global wind turbine manufacturing companies. We explore the motivations behind establishing a local wind power industry, and the paths that different countries have taken to develop indigenous large wind turbine manufacturing industries within their borders. This is done through a cross-country comparison of the policy support mechanisms that have been employed to directly and indirectly promote wind technology manufacturing in twelve countries. We find that in many instances there is a clear relationship between a manufacturer's success in its home country market and itsmore »« less

Second wind. [The wind power industry in Europe]

Denniston, D.

Europe has ample amounts of technical potential for wind energy, and with the European community committment to take action against global warming, wind energy is becoming increasingly important. European wind power advocates have several advantages over the US: firm goals, research for better designs, government support, market development. Although the US still has the lead in wind power energy, Europe is catching up.
Local interstellar medium. VII. The local interstellar wind and interstellar material in front of the nearby star Alpha Ophiuchi

Frisch, P.C. ; York, D.G. ; Fowler, J.R. - Astrophys. J.; (United States)

IUE observations of Mg I 2852.127 A are used to search for warm interstellar gas in the direction of Alpha Oph. The data on Mg I are first presented, and Mg I as a diagnostic of warm gas is discussed. A cool H I feature found in the direction of Alpha Oph, and which is evidently the origin of most of the observed optical and ultraviolet lines, is discussed, and the cloud geometry is examined. 40 references.

Restructuring local distribution services in a competitive natural gas industry

Duann, D.J. ; Costello, K.W. - NRRI Quarterly Bulletin

The restructuring of local distribution services is now the focus of the natural gas industry. It is viewed by some as the last major step in the {open_quotes}reconstitution{close_quotes} of the natural gas industry and a critical element in realizing the full benefits of regulatory and market reforms that have already taken place in the wellhead and interstate markets. It could also be the most important regulatory initiative for most end-use customers since they are affected directly by the costs and reliability of distribution services. Several factors contributed to the current emphasis on distribution service restructuring. They include the unbundling andmore »« less
Local government: The sleeping giant in electric industry restructuring

Ridley, S. - Electricity Journal

Public power has long been a cornerstone of consumer leverage in the electric industry. But its foundation consists of a much broader and deeper consumer authority. Understanding that authority - and present threats to it - is critical to restructuring of the electric industry as well as to the future of public power. The country has largely forgotten the role that local governments have played and continue to play in the development of the electric industry. Moreover, we risk losing sight of the options local governments may offer to protect consumers, to advance competition in the marketplace, and to enhancemore »« less
