About Me
- Name: Euan Blauvelt
Euan Blauvelt - Director of Research, ABS Energy Research.
Welcome to World Energy Discussion, an online community for discussion and debate about the global energy and environmental services markets.
As Research Director of ABS Energy Research, my work covers the electricity, gas, coal, nuclear, renewable energy, environmental, hydrogen and water and waste sectors. I have worked on many projects in a wide variety of
these markets and I follow them closely on a continuous basis talking to many sources to develop a full, non-partisan picture of these complex and rapidly changing markets. I often attend and speak at industry events and have developed excellent relationships with many interesting and knowledgeable experts.
As a market research professional it’s crucial to look at all sides of
the issues and in this vein I feel that an online community for professionals involved in the energy markets would be invaluable for all as a place to share information and exchange opinion.
I look forward to engaging with you in interesting discussion and animated debate.

Dear Sir.
Hope you will answer my question, because I'm very interested.
What is the average value of CO2 produced for a KWh of electricity for every type of power station in a world. And how many KWh of energy do they produce yearly all over the world.
The best paper for the question is the Royal Academy of Engineering "Costs of Generation", which gives carbon costs per kWH for a range of base load and renewable generating technologies.

The amount of electricity generated by fuel is available from the EIA but not, to my knowledge, by generation technology.
I hope this helps you.
If you check 3rd quarter information for US wind power on AWEA's website you'd see we have about 13,880 MW installed and 5700 MW under construction. From what I've seen it takes about 6 months to install a wind turbine so we'll have 20,000MW in 2008. I'm sure 25,000 will happen in late 2008 or early 2009.
