| Abstract | A two-stage consultancy study was commissioned by the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department of the Hong Kong SAR Government in November 2000 to investigate the feasibility of wide-scale application of renewable energy (RE) technologies in Hong Kong, with a view to further improving our air quality and reducing our greenhouse gas emissions. The stage 1 study evaluated the potential of various forms of RE technologies for wide-scale local use, and related legal, institutional and promotional issues. It also made recommendations for formulating an implementation strategy. The stage 1 study was completed in early 2003. Upon reviewing current technological trends and applications, and taking into account Hong Kong's local characteristics, RE technologies that are considered potentially feasible for wide-scale application in Hong Kong include: a. solar power; b. wind power; and c. energy from waste. Public consultation on the findings and recommendations was conducted from February till April 2003, and the results indicated that the public is more receptive to RE than the consultant have envisaged. The stage 2 study is a design and build project involving the installation of a building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) system in the Wanchai Tower. This is a pilot project, which covers a total area of 500 m/sup 2/ PV panels with a peak power output of 55 kW. This paper gives a brief account on the key findings of the two studies and discusses the technological performance of feasible RE resources in Hong Kong. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
