The klima:aktiv programme, running from 2004 to 2012, is overseen by the Ministry of Environment and managed by the Austrian Energy Agency. The programme aims to support energy eefficiency and increased use of renewables in all sectors of the economy through direct grant support, information, and advice.

The programme has four target groups:

1) Energy efficiency and buildings

2) Mobility

3) Communities

4) Renewable Energy

These four categories comprise 22 sub-programmes, aimed at technology and service markets. They develop technological and organisational solutions able to compete on the market, take care of innovative quality standards, and promote training of all relevant professional groups.

Six sub-programmes in the renewable energy category aim at:

-promoting the right application of efficient heat pumps

-providing for the increased use of solar heating in single-family homes, residential buildings and tourist enterprises

-encouraging the development of as-yet unused wood resources and

-the installation of wood biomass-based heating systems in homes

-promoting electricty, heat and fuel production from renewable sources

-encouraging biomass district heating plants to become more efficient

The programme also trains klima:activ experts, for example for solar heating or heat pumps.

The programme is publicly visible, and will be present at about 1500 events in 2008 - 2.5 million customer contacts, half of them active enquries, are estimated for 2008.

Low Gas Storage and Diesel Shortages Threaten Europe’s Winter Supply

Tightening global supply of oil and gas is putting Europe on course for a difficult winter this year due to the continent’s significant dependence on energy imports, despite energy transition ambitions. Gas in storage is much lower than it should be, and a diesel crunch is threatening fuel oil supply security for the heating season. It could turn into a perfect storm. The first warning signs emerged as early as March, as the U.S. and Israeli war against Iran crippled Qatar’s LNG export infrastructure, forcing the Gulf state to declare…

Cooling Emissions Are Set to Triple by 2050 as Heat Waves Intensify

Air conditioning has become a hot-button geopolitical issue as rising temperatures create dangerous conditions around the globe. Air-conditioning units are increasingly being considered as “essential infrastructure” as summer heat waves turn into a deadly and increasingly regular occurrence. But while air conditioning inarguably saves lives, in the short term, they are simultaneously contributing to global warming and distracting from other, more important approaches to managing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change.…
