Abstract

Now that energy efficiency is becoming a global imperative, Europe is finding new export markets for its energy technologies, which are as advanced as they are diverse. It’s a good example of public and private agendas in step – tough environmental controls by EU member states breeding a leaner, greener energy industry. The next challenge for the politicians is to integrate research and development with socio‐economic sustainability – a subject that is at the heart of a number of recent national foresight studies.
