Three decades of stagnant growth are viewed as one of the underlying causes of the continent's distress. Developing energy infrastructure on the continent is one of the key growth strategies identified for Africa since consistent power supply is an instrumental tool to attract much needed foreign direct investments. DRC, a country endowed with vast potential in hydro power, is tipped to become a central source of electricity for the entire continent. This Frost & Sullivan research service focussed on the total DRC power industry, segmente into power generation, electricity transmission, and electricity distribution. http://www.frost.com/prod/servlet/report-homepage.pag?Src=RSS&repid=M1FE-01-00-00-00 Mon, 12 May 2008 04:02:05 +0100 http://www.frost.com/prod/servlet/report-homepage.pag?Src=RSS&repid=M1FE-01-00-00-00 Technical Insights Alert This issue of the Automotive & Transportation Technology Alert takes a look at the future of automobiles as well as laser cladding techniques for automotive components and diesel aircraft engines.

A host of issues such as, lack of adequate generation capacity, high T&D losses, energy shortages, financial conditions of State Electricity Boards (SEBs), rampant power theft, equipment condition etc., play a major role in the sector's relatively dismal performance. With the objective of "Power for All by 2012", aggressive power generation capacity addition plans, augmenting the T&D network and increased share of clean energy, renewable energy sources is one of the key targets the Government is actively pursuing. http://www.frost.com/prod/servlet/market-insight-top.pag?Src=RSS&docid=129223665 Mon, 5 May 2008 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.frost.com/prod/servlet/market-insight-top.pag?Src=RSS&docid=129223665 Technical Insights Alert This week's HTM edition profiles advances in solar cells involving graphene as a replacement material for ITO, and low-cost solar cells for small battery applications.
