Early 1997, the Executive Committee of IEA SH and CP approved a 2 year extension of Task 20 'Solar Energy in Building Renovation'. The aim of this extension was to develop strategies for an effective
The purpose of this project was to improve our understanding of the characteristics and behaviour of char beds both in steady and unsteady operation. The knowledge gained is to be used for
The main conclusions of the survey are: The potential for biogas production from municipal organic waste in Malawi is scarce; The bioenergy potential of the Malawian agro-industries is large, with the
The present project covers the manufacturing of the prototype aggregate, including two variants of the rotor, as well as the verification of the systems performance.
The study tours to Sweden, Finland, Austria, Italy and the USA have given a good insight in how the other countries are establishing the size classification of comminuted fuel.

The database has been constructed and the quality of the data has been controlled. The first econometric analyses of the data have been carried through.
In the work concerning experimental verification of thick airfoils, the focus has been on airfoils used by the industry. The method has been verified with measurements on a NACA 63-215 airfoil
The project is carried out by representatives of the EFP98 applicants who forwarded project proposals regarding concepts related to energy effective exploitation of waste waster sludge.
In this review a method for evaluation of these technologies is presented together with a spread sheet in which the method has been used for a number of the present conventional technologies. For the
The purpose of this project was to contribute to the development of methods for local and regional energy planning using systems analysis by adding the geographical dimension
Based on the pipeline leak detection and batch tracking software developed by COWI, it is a wish to develop a leak detection system adapted to Lithuania's oil transportation system.
The aim of the project is to encourage the exchange of experience, transfer know how to R and D in connection to extraction and utilization of landfill gas for energy purposes. The IEA-cooperation
The object of the knowledge dissemination programme is to contribute to a continuous, efficient and target group-oriented dissemination of the research results of the research programme for the Use of
The project objective is to develop more generally applicable assessment and design criteria for isolated power supply systems, and the expected result is a guideline for design of such systems.
