The Asian Regional Energy
Initiative of the IEI
Analysis
In keeping with
our mission, we have been analyzing the demand for the services
derived through the use of energy and then assessing the
alternative ways of meeting the requirements. The
alternatives extend from increased production and delivery of
energy carriers, to efficiency improvements among energy-powered
devices. Our assessments include technical,
economic, and operational issues, and environmental impacts.
During the past
26 years, we have
completed numerous analytical studies -- quantitative and qualitative, at the micro and macro levels.
Based on these studies, reports
have been prepared and/or papers published in the following
fields:
-
estimates of the requirement
of power and electricity, in selected regions, based on
end-uses (using the Reference Energy System, from primary
sources in nature to energy useful for consumers);
-
the life-cycle
costs
of
the feasible
electricity
generation and conservation
options, from which least-cost schedules can be drawn up, for
selected regions;
- integrated resource planning (IRP)
for the power sector, its use around the
world and applicability & barriers to implementation in specific
regions;
- efficiency
improvement among common
electrical devices used;
issues for retrofitting/replacement;
-
alternative renewable sources for electricity
generation;
-
power sector
restructuring and related issues;
-
environmental
impacts
of electricity generation
through various technologies - standards and regulation;
- alternative fuels for cooking
- production and delivery issues;
-
sustainable
provision of rural energy
services
through integration of energy with income generation and other needs.
Abstracts of the reports/papers are available. [Click
