| Poland Feeling Power Pinch |
|
 August 8, 2007
Eastern Europe is experiencing growth but is still struggling to reform its energy markets. Poland is no different. But, alarmists are firing warning shots, saying that in five years it may run low on electricity.
The Polish economy ministry issued a report titled "Security of Electricity Deliveries in Coming Years" that is to be published in mid August. It says that solid economic growth means that more energy is required to produce goods and services. As a result, electricity consumption has increased 3-4 percent annually since 2005 and in the capital city of Warsaw consumption has risen by 20 percent in that time frame. |

| Quenching America's Thirst for Natural Gas |
|
July 20, 2007
Getting that Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline built has been a daunting process. The political and financial impediments have kept the project delayed for years. But now, Gov. Sarah Palin submitted a new plan that she says could prompt construction by next spring.
The $30 billion project has been derailed for 25 years. The pipeline would be a 3,400-mile undertaking that would send 4-5 billion cubic feet per day from Alaska's North Slope to the Lower 48. The fields where the gas is found hold 35 trillion cubic feet of known reserves and would undoubtedly help serve America's energy needs. Some experts say the region holds even more natural gas resources. |

 July 27, 2007
A new industrial revolution is underway in Europe -- the push by heads of state and governments across the continent to usher in more renewable energy. The 27 nations there agreed to meet 20 percent of their overall energy needs with green energy by 2020.
The overarching goal is to achieve more energy independence and in doing so, move away from fossil-fired fuels that contribute much of the dirty emissions as well as carbon dioxide that is tied to global warming. Each member state will have to set national objectives, adopt action plans and determine sector-specific targets. |
