International Standby Power Conference

Location and date(s) of workshop:	New Delhi, India: 2 April 2008

Organiser(s):	Indian Bureau of Energy Efficiency / IEA

Contact(s):	mark.ellis@iea.org

Background:	Regular international conferences on Standby Power have helped to keep the issue at the forefront of national energy efficiency strategies and stimulate co-ordination amongst countries. As a result, follow-up processes to the G8, APP, APEC and CSD Marrakech accord have all called on Governments to make a greater commitment to the IEA 1-Watt standby target and other programs to tackle standby power. Since the last conference in Canberra in 2006, several major initiatives and policies have been launched - and new studies of standby power reveal whether progress is being made. The 2008 Conference, featuring a selection of speakers from around the world and from India, provides an opportunity to share information about: - Asia-Pacific Partnership Projects underway to tackle standby power; - National and International trends in standby power consumption; - Proposals for policies to address Standby Power in India; - Recent national policy developments and future proposals; - Developments in the standby power test procedure, IEC 62301. Participation is free but please book early, as there are a limited number of places available at the workshop. The procedure on how to register will be forthcoming shortly.
