AMA Research
has published the 1st edition of the 'New
Sustainable Energy Technologies for Housing 2003' report.
Drawing on a wide range of Government, independent, in-house sources and
primary research, this report provides an integrated overview of the
market potential for key 'new' renewable energy and energy-efficient
technologies in the domestic sector.
Key
issues covered in the report are:-

New EU
Directives, UK legislation & changes in the Building Regulations
relating to energy generation & consumption will be the key factors
underpinning an increase in demand for renewable energy and
energy-efficient technologies in the domestic sector. Some technologies
are already being used, albeit at a niche level, but others are currently
in development. This 130+ page report assesses the potential in the UK
domestic market for certain 'new' technologies that are expected to have
a key role in the development of sustainable energy use in the near
future, identifying opportunities and market barriers.
