Current Applications of Nanotechnologies Will Result in a Global Annual Saving of 8 Thousand Tons of Carbon Dioxide in 2007

DUBLIN, Ireland | Posted on May 25th, 2007

"Nanotechnologies for Sustainable Energy: Reducing Carbon Emissions through Clean Technologies and Renewable Energy Sources" examines the impact of nanotechnology on the quest for sustainable energy.

Through a detailed analysis of technologies both currently available and under development the report concludes that:

- The major near-term benefit of nanotechnologies will be in reducing weight in the transportation sector with nanocomposite materials quickly diffusing across the automotive and aerospace industries

- Over the next seven years, highest growth opportunities will come from the application of nanomaterials to making better use of existing resources rather than generating new forms of renewable energy

- Highest growth rates will be in the development of renewable energy sources while the materials sector is already crowded

- Current applications of nanotechnologies will result in a global annual saving of 8 thousand tons of carbon dioxide in 2007, rising to over a million tons by 2014

Please note: This description is for the complete report.

Areas covered:

- Market forecast for nanotechnology applications in sustainable energy

- Nanotechnology applications for sustainable energy

- Reducing co2 emissions in the portable electronics sector
