The project and the eventual Clean Energy Network will address clean energy issues in the following areas: Renewable Energy Sources; Energy Demand Management and Energy Efficiency; Clean Natural Gas and related Clean Technologies; Electricity Interconnection and Market Integration; and Carbon Capture and Storage.
The informative meeting will take place in the offices of the Gulf Research Center in Dubai on April 1st, 2010 at 10:00 a.m. Prof. Giacomo Luciani, who is the Team Leader in the implementation of the EU-GCC Clean Energy Network project will address project objectives and content as well as the ultimate benefits of establishing the Clean Energy Network.
