WORLD FUTURE ENERGY SUMMIT 2013

by | 23-01-2013 04:00 recommendations 0

The World Future Energy Summit 2013 was a much bigger event this year. I had the privilege of attending the WFES in 2012 as well as a UNEP delegate.

The opening ceremony of WFES2013 saw eminent speakers such as the French President , the Argentinian President and Queen Rania of Jordan. Listening to these world leaders, live,  was an unique experience and a huge learning for me.

The venue also hosted the International Water Summit which , too , I attended. Several workshops on alternate energy were organized which I participated in. Fossil fuels will run out one day leaving behind a world full of carbon dioxide – thus one must propagate usage of alternate energy. This year?s event highlighted the fact that the technology for alternate energy exists – the challenge is to make it commercially viable for developed as well poor nations to afford the same.

I also visited the IRENA area . The IRENA summit actually started a day earlier than WFES but was basically for high level ministerial delegations.

I was interviewed by a TV news channel and it was aired on prime time in the evening, across the country. I spoke on the youth?s demands to move to  sustainable alternate energy.

    Yup..thanks for you answer..my mind is alike, but apparently we must dig up and explore the sources of renewable energy before the stock of fossil fuels is in scarecity

    @Achmad====-It would better if we were to use natural energy as they do not pollute. All alternate energy sources are economically unviable and therein lies the challenge.

    Do you agree if a developing country government want to alter fossil fuels to biofuel? But the cost of biofuel is so high, and how to overcome the higher cost of biofuel?

    Good for you Kehkashan!
    You must have learned a lot of thing there.
    Yes, the energy issue is getting more and more importance after we found out
    that the nuclear energy is not the right answer for the energy crisis.
