SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FUTURE: Interview with US energy expert Amory Lovins

What does a sustainable energy future look like and how do we go about creating it?

Amory Lovins: “It will use energy several times more productively than now. It will shift supply to more diverse, dispersed, and renewable sources. The policy framework that could most surely get us there is one that allows all ways to save or produce energy to compete fairly at honest prices, regardless of which kind they are what technology they use, where they are, how big they are, or who owns them. Most governments that pay lip service to market liberalization are far from that framework and instead are busy juggling subsidies to favour some technologies over others, supply over efficient use, and big over the right size for the job.”
