Welcome to Clean Energy Insight

In two new articles Clean Energy Insight examines investment opportunities in renewable power - rounding up the latest progress in the major technology areas, and the emergence of China as a major power in the renewable energy space. Other articles examine whether the sector is in recession - identifying evidence from the UK that it's a mixed picture. And we've added more company profiles to the site. Watch out later this month for our new report on ligno-cellulosic biofuels.

Clean Energy Insight is free to access. We hope you find it a useful and interesting resource.
