Description
Organised by the International Energy Agency Greenhouse Gas Research and Development Programme, the International Conference on Technologies
for Activities Implemented Jointly was held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, May 26-29 (1997). The papers presented at the conference
and published in these proceedings reflect the theme that Activities Implemented Jointly (AIJ) is a major tool to facilitate practical
demonstration and development of greenhouse gas mitigation technologies. Published in a single volume under the title
Greenhouse
Gas Mitigation, the proceedings cover the following key areas: Key Note Presentations; International Initiatives; Enhancing Sinks
and Stores; Maximising Joint Benefits; Improved Energy Technology; Asian Development Bank; Transport; Transmission and End Use.
The
concept of AIJ will facilitate international cooperation to reduce greenhouse gas concentrations and mitigate effects of climate change.
In publishing these internationally-relevant conference proceedings,
Greenhouse Gas Mitigation is likely to prove an invaluable
reference tool for those engaged in research and application of initiatives to combat climate change.
Audience:
For energy researchers and managers.
