The Lima-Callao area has a population of 9 million andan economy worth US$66 billion in 2014. The preliminary results of our research indicate that the total energy bill for the city was US$4.7 billion and that the bill for waste and water was US$50 billion - meaning that 8% of everything earned in the local economy was spent on energy, water and waste.
UK-Korea study on energy storage
CLCF has led an FCO-funded comparative analysis of the evolution of the UK and Korean energy systems, assessing the potential role for energy storage and the opportunities for academic and industrial collaboration. The study kicked-off with a workshop in Seoul in May 2013, and culminated in a report launch in July 2014 at Chatham House. The work will also provide input to a study which will focus more attention on the policy, market and investment conditions that will be necessary for these technologies to be deployed globally.
