  • UK Innovation Systems for New and Renewable Energy Technologies
    The UK Innovation Systems for New and Renewable Energy Technologies Final Report A report to the DTI Renewable Energy Development & Deployment Team June 2003 Imperial College London Centre for Energy Policy and Technology & E4tech Consulting ii Executive summary Background and approach This report considers how innovation systems in the UK work for a range of new and renewable energy technologies. It uses a broad definition of 'innovation' - to include all the stages and activities required to exploit new ideas, develop new and improved products, and deliver them to end users. The study assesses the diversity of influences that affect innovation, and the extent to which they support or inhibit the development and commercialisation of innovative new technologies in the UK. The innovation process for six new and renewable energy sectors is analysed: • Wind (onshore and offshore) • Marine (wave and tidal stream) • Solar PV • Biomass • Hydrogen from renewables • District and micro-CHP In order to understand innovation better, the report takes a systems approach, and a generic model of the innovation system is developed and used to explore each case. The systems approach has its origins in the international literature on innovation. The organising principles are twofold: • The stages of innovation. Innovation proceeds through a series of stages, from basic R&D to commercialisation – but these are interlinked, and there is no necessity for all innovations to go through each and every stage. The stages are defined as follows: Basic and applied R&D includes both ‘blue skies’ science and engineering/application focused research respectively; Demonstration from prototypes to the point where full scale working devices are installed in small numbers; Pre-commercial captures the move from the first few multiples of units to much larger scale installation for the first time; Supported commercial is the stage where technologies are rolled out in large numbers, given generic support measures; Commercial technologies can compete unsupported within the broad regulatory framework.

    The Oil Drum | Drumbeat: June 1, 2011 http://www.theoildrum.com/node/7988 Drumbeat: June 1, 2011 Posted by Leanan on June 1, 2011 - 10:34am Scary signs for jobs A variety of one-time factors, including high oil prices earlier this year, Japan's earthquake and nuclear crisis, and severe weather including flooding and tornadoes in the South, have all taken their toll on American employers. Add government layoffs to the mix, and the picture looks even worse. As federal stimulus dollars have petered out, state and local governments have cut jobs for six months straight. That said, economists were still not expecting this much weakness. Oil Falls the Most in Three Weeks on Report That U.S. Employers Cut Hiring Crude oil dropped the most in three weeks after data showed that U.S. companies added fewer jobs than forecast last month and the expansion of manufacturing slowed, bolstering concern fuel demand growth will weaken. Higher oil price prompts increased drilling Higher-than-expected oil and gas drilling activity in western Canada led the Canadian Association of Oilwell Drilling Contractors Wednesday to increase its forecast for the total number of wells to be drilled in 2011. It now expects the total to be 13,128, an increase of some 1,300, or 11 per cent over the 11,811 wells it anticipated in its project released in October. Philippines protests to China over oil rig plan The Philippines said Wednesday it had formally protested to Beijing over recent activity in disputed waters of the South China Sea and Chinese plans to anchor an oil rig there.
