Types of energy
There are two main sources of energy. They are
conventional
non conventional.
Some sources of energy are :
renewable like sun, wind, flowing water,
ocean, wood, biomass etc.
Some sources of energy are non renewable
like coal, petroleum and natural gas.

How Much Energy is
consumed?
World Energy Consumption refers to the
total energy used by all of
human civilization.
Typically measured per-year, it involves all
energy harnessed from every energy
source we use, applied towards
humanity's endeavors across
every industrial and technological sector,
across every country.

Who collects the data?
Institutions such as the International Energy
Agency (IEA), the U.S. Energy Information
Administration (EIA), and the European
Environment Agency record and publish
energy data periodically.
Improved data and understanding of World
Energy Consumption may reveal systemic
trends and patterns, which could help frame
current energy issues and encourage
movement towards collectively useful
solutions.

What is energy policy?
Energy policy is the manner in which a given entity
(often governmental) has decided to address
issues of energy development including
Energy production,
distribution
consumption.
The attributes of energy policy may include
legislation,
international treaties,
incentives to investment,
guidelines for energy conservation,
taxation and other public policy techniques.

Factors within an energy
policy
What is the extent of energy self-sufficiency
for this nation
Where future energy sources will derive
How future energy will be consumed (e.g.
among sectors)
What fraction of the population will be
acceptable to endure energy poverty

Factors within an energy
policy
What are the goals for future energy intensity,
ratio of energy consumed to GDP
What is the reliability standard for distribution
reliability
What environmental externalities are
acceptable and are forecast
What form of "portable energy" is forecast
(e.g. sources of fuel for motor vehicles)

Factors within an energy
policy
How will energy efficient hardware (e.g.
hybrid vehicles, household appliances) be
encouraged

What specific mechanisms (e.g. taxes,
incentives, manufacturing standards) are in
place to implement the total policy

The International Energy Agency (IEA; French: Agenceinternationale de l'énergie) is aParis-based autonomous intergovernmental organization established in the framework of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in 1974 in the wake of the 1973 oil crisis. The IEA was initially dedicated to responding to physical disruptions in the supply of oil, as well as serving as an information source on statistics about the international oil market and other energy sectors.The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) is the statistical and analytical agency within the U.S. Department of Energy. EIA collects, analyzes, and disseminates independent and impartial energy information to promote sound policymaking, efficient markets, and public understanding of energy and its interaction with the economy and the environment.The European Environment Agency (EEA) is an agency of the European Union(EU). Its task is to provide sound, independent information on the environment. It is a major information source for those involved in developing, adopting, implementing and evaluating environmental policy, and also the general public.
A national energy policy comprises a set of measures involving that country's laws, treaties and agency directives. The energy policy of a sovereign nation may include one or more of the following measures:
