AIT professors publish energy workshop proceedings

Prof. Ram M. Shrestha, Prof. S. Kumar and Mr. Samuel Martin from AIT's Energy field of study recently edited and published the proceedings of the Asian Regional Workshop on Electricity and Development.

The Global Network on Energy for Sustainable Development organized a series of three regional workshops in Asia, Africa and Latin America in 2005 that focused on the role of electricity for promoting sustainable development.

The workshops were in collaboration with the United Nations Environment Programme, the United Nations Development Programme and the International Energy Agency.

The dual challenge of linking electrification enhancement with national development goals, while providing increased electricity access to the poor, was the key theme for this series of workshops. The Asian Regional Workshop on Electricity and Development, the second in the series of the regional workshops, was organized by AIT at the AIT Conference Center 28-29 April 2005.
