Working with the global academic community, it facilitates multi-stakeholder analysis to explore emerging trends, particularly the environmental and societal challenges of the coming decades. It focuses on a wide range of issues related to the future of urban living as well as sustainable production and consumption (cities, urban services, environment, energy, health, agriculture, etc.). Over the years, the Veolia Institute has built up a high-level international network of academic and scientifi c experts, universities and research bodies, policymakers, NGOs and international organizations. The Institute pursues its mission through publications and conferences, as well as foresight working groups. Internationally recognized as a legitimate platform for exploring global issues, the Veolia Institute has official NGO observer status under the terms of the United Nations Framework Convention on climate change. THE FORESIGHT COMMITTEE Drawing on the expertise and international reputation of its members, the Foresight Committee guides the work of the Veolia Institute and steers its development. The current members of the Foresight Committee are: Harvey Fineberg, President of the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation and former President of the American Institute of Medicine; Pierre-Marc Johnson, international lawyer and former Premier of Quebec; Philippe Kourilsky, Honorary Director General of the Pasteur Institute; Amy Luers, Global Lead Sustainability Sciences at Microsoft; Mamphela Ramphele, former Managing Director of the World Bank and Amartya Sen, Nobel Prize-winning economist and Professor at Harvard University.

  • Veolia Acquires 29.9% of Suez's Capital from Engie and Confirms Its
    Veolia acquires 29.9% of Suez’s capital from Engie and confirms its intention to acquire control Veolia acknowledges Engie’s decision to respond favorably to its offer to acquire a 29.9% stake in Suez. As a reminder, this proposal, submitted on August 30 and continuously improved since, presents in particular the following elements: ● a price of 18 euros per share (dividend included), i.e. a premium of 75% over the unaffected price of July 30, 2020, paid immediately in cash and paving the way for a public tender offer on the remaining share capital of Suez for all of its shareholders; ● the guarantee of 100% of jobs and social benefits for all Suez employees in France; ● the certainty of a French operation; ● the preservation of competition thanks to the takeover by French company Meridiam of the Water activity in France from Suez, Meridiam having committed to preserving all jobs and social benefits, to take over the R&D center of Suez and to double the investments planned and to inject 800 million euros into this new scope within 5 to 7 years. This decision marks a first decisive step in the construction in France of a world super champion of the ecological transformation making the trail in this strategic sector for at least 20 years. Antoine Frérot said: "I am very happy to lay the foundation stone in France today for a world super champion of ​ the ecological transformation. This is a wonderful opportunity for the employees, customers and shareholders of both groups, and it is a project which serves France and the planet ".

  • Applied Econometrics Using MATLAB
    Applied Econometrics using MATLAB James P. LeSage Department of Economics University of Toledo CIRCULATED FOR REVIEW October, 1998 2 Preface This text describes a set of MATLAB functions that implement a host of econometric estimation methods. Toolboxes are the name given by the MathWorks to related sets of MATLAB functions aimed at solving a par- ticular class of problems. Toolboxes of functions useful in signal processing, optimization, statistics, nance and a host of other areas are available from the MathWorks as add-ons to the standard MATLAB software distribution. I use the termEconometrics Toolbox to refer to the collection of function libraries described in this book. The intended audience is faculty and students using statistical methods, whether they are engaged in econometric analysis or more general regression modeling. The MATLAB functions described in this book have been used in my own research as well as teaching both undergraduate and graduate econometrics courses. Researchers currently using Gauss, RATS, TSP, or SAS/IML for econometric programming might nd switching to MATLAB advantageous. MATLAB software has always had excellent numerical algo- rithms, and has recently been extended to include: sparse matrix algorithms, very good graphical capabilities, and a complete set of object oriented and graphical user-interface programming tools. MATLAB software is available on a wide variety of computing platforms including mainframe, Intel, Apple, and Linux or Unix workstations. When contemplating a change in software, there is always the initial investment in developing a set of basic routines and functions to support econometric analysis. It is my hope that the routines in the Econometrics Toolbox provide a relatively complete set of basic econometric analysis tools.

    Press release Paris, February 20, 2017 Access to water Veolia wins €1156 million contract and contributes to drinking water acccess in Sri Lanka By winning a €156 million contract from the Sri Lankan National Water Supply and Drainage Board, Veolia, through its subsidiaries OTV and SADE, will help provide access to water on a large scale in the Greater Matale area. Located in Sri Lanka’s Central Province, some 150 kilometers from the capital, Colombo, Greater Matale is a predominantly agricultural region. Veolia, through its subsidiary OTV, has just been appointed project manager for the construction of five new water treatment plants in the region along with 12 service reservoirs, five pumping stations and more 430 km of transmission and distribution pipes. This system will ensure drinking water quality and secure supply for more than 350,000 people. Clarification, settling and filtration, the Matale (30,000 m3/d), Ambanganga (18,000 m3/d), Ukuwela, Udatenna and Rattotta (9,000 m3/d each) water treatment plants will incorporate the Veolia solutions and technology that best suit local conditions. Another Veolia subsidiary, SADE will act as subcontractor to design and build the 433 km transmission and distribution network. This contract was made possible with the support of local French government services through a financial scheme combining export credit from a syndicate of banks (CACIB, Natixis, Unicredit and BNP Paribas), with a guarantee from the French Ministry of Finance and a local commercial loan from HNB bank and treasury bonds. “Access to water is a key factor in the growth of cities, their citizens and their economym ”, said Claude Laruelle, Director of Veolia’s Global Enterprises.
