  • Science and Technology in Society (SATIS) Book 6
    , SCIENCE & 1 - TECHNOLOGY 0 IN SOCIETY ~ • • • ABOUT SATIS Science and Technology in Society units are designed to be used in conjunction with conventional science courses, particularly those leading to GCSE examinations. Each unit has links to major science topics as well as exploring important social and technological applications and issues. The units are self-contained and generally require about 2 periods (around 75 minutes) of classroom time. Each unit comprises Teachers' Notes (blue sheets) and Students' materials (white sheets). Full guidance on use is given in the Teachers' Notes accompanying each unit, which also include background information and suggest further resources. Each SATIS book contains ten units. The units are numbered in a system giving the number of the book followed by the number of the unit within that book. Thus the first unit in the first SATIS book is numbered 10l. In addition to the SATIS books, a general Teacher's Guide to the project is available, giving guidance on some of the teaching techniques involved as well as ideas for further activities. Many people from schools, universities,. industry and the professions have contributed to the writing, development and trials of the SATIS project. A full list of contributors appears in the Teachers' Guide. The material which follows may be reproduced without infringing copyright provided reproduction isfor student use only.

  • Annex D Major Events in the Energy Industry
    Annex D Major events in the Energy Industry 2020 Electricity In July 2020 construction work commenced on what is set to be the world’s longest electricity interconnector, linking the UK’s power system with Denmark. Due for completion in 2023, the 765-kilometre ‘Viking Link’ cable will stretch from Lincolnshire to South Jutland in Denmark. In July 2020 approval was granted for the Vanguard offshore wind farm in Norfolk. The 1.8GW facility consisting of up to 180 turbines will generate enough electricity to power 1.95 million homes. In May 2020 approval was granted for Britain’s largest ever solar farm at Cleve Hill, near Whitstable in Kent. The 350MW facility, comprising of 800.000 solar panels, will begin operation in 2022 and will provide power to around 91,000 homes. Energy Prices In February 2020 the energy price cap was reduced by £17 to £1,162 per year, from 1 April for the six-month “summer” price cap period. 2019 Climate Change The Government laid draft legislation in Parliament in early June 2019 to end the UK’s contribution to climate change, by changing the UK’s legally binding long-term emissions reduction target to net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The new target is based on advice from the government’s independent advisors, the Committee on Climate Change (CCC). The legislation was signed into law in late June 2019, following approval by the House of Commons and the House of Lords. Energy Policy A joint government-industry Offshore Wind Sector Deal was announced in March 2019, which will lead to clean, green offshore wind providing more than 30% of British electricity by 2030.

This assessment is a vital component of 4NW’s refresh of the quantitative and qualitative assessment phases of the regional employment land study completed in 2004. 1.2 Arup with Donaldsons were commissioned in 2004 to prepare a regional employment land study for the North West region. This research provided a quantitative and qualitative assessment of employment land in the North West and analysed the extent to which the provision of land is sufficient in quantity and quality, and appropriate in distribution, to meet the likely future demand in the period to 2021, and the requirements of the key sectors. 1.3 The appraisal was completed in April 2005, and acted as an essential component of the evidence base for the preparation of the Regional Spatial Strategy, providing much of the evidence base upon which the economic policies have subsequently been developed. 1.4 The Employment Land Study had two main objectives and associated outputs. • Phase 1 and 2: to provide an assessment of the quality and quantity of existing employment sites, over 5ha in size, in the North West; and • Phase 3: appraisal of how the provision of employment land could employment land requirements, up to 2021, based on employment forecasts.
