Produktbeschreibung
This book is the product of international initiatives to define a set of Energy Indicators for Sustainable Development (EISD) and corresponding methodologies and guidelines. This work has tried to compile the intensive efforts led by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in cooperation with the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA), the International Energy Agency (IEA), Eurostat and the European Environment Agency (EEA). The thematic framework, guidelines, methodology sheets and energy indicators set out in this book reflect the expertise of these various agencies, recognized worldwide as leaders in energy and environmental statistics and analysis. While each agency has an active indicator programme, one goal of this endeavour has been to provide users with a consensus by leading experts on definitions, guidelines and methodologies for the development and worldwide use of a single set of energy indicators. The purpose of this book is to present one set of EISD for consideration and use, particularly at the national level, and to serve as a starting point in the development of a more comprehensive and universally accepted set of energy indicators relevant to sustainable development. It is hoped that countries will use the EISD to assess their energy systems and to track their progress towards nationally defined sustainable development goals and objectives. This book also presents policy findings from OECD,UN, IEA and NEA reports relating to energy, climate change and sustainable development. It focuses on mainly widening energy access in developing countries, increasing energy research and development and dissemination, promoting energy efficiency and diversity, and benefiting from energy related climate change policies'.
