Fair use rationale for Image:IEA logo.gif
Image:IEA logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:12, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Dubious
I added the dubious tag as it seems somewhat untrue from what I understand. Global strategic petroleum reserves isn't clear in some cases but it seems to me to imply most of the stores are petroleum i.e. crude oil not petroleum products (i.e. petrol, diesel etc). In Japan the government reserves are petroleum not petroleum products (there are some privately held petroleum products as a reserve but most of the reserve is petroleum). And the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve which is after all about 1/5 of the reserves is mostly crude oil according to that article. Nil Einne (talk) 15:11, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

UK
The UK is also no longer a net exporter of petroleum/oil so I presume they need to have a (small) reserve anyway and are no longer exempt even aside from the EU. Nil Einne (talk) 15:12, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Diese Meinung ist offensichtlich falsch:

 * "Zudem schreibt die IEA, dass ihre "Energie-Revolution" bei den Treibstoffen für den Verkehr am teuersten und schwierigsten wird. Hier kann die Kernkraft aber am wenigsten beitragen"
 * http://www.sueddeutsche.de/wissen/artikel/934/179384/


 * Weltweit wird heute die Energie saemtlicher Schienengebundener Verkehr (BRD: Groesster Energieverbraucher ist die Deutsche Bahn AG --mehr als 1 Millarde Euro Energiekosten--) durch die Verbrennungskraftwerke aus internationaler und nationaler Kohleverbrennung und Dieselverbrennung gewonnen.
 * Ersaetzt man in allen 200 Nationalstaaten in diesen Bereich die Energiegewinnung durch 500 Atomkraftwerke bzw. 2500 Atommeiler wird der Verbrennungsprozess Braunkohle und Steinkohle ersaetzt durch Uran (Metallverbrennung).
 * Schaetzungsweise wuerden weltweit und Jaehrlich 1.000.000.000 Tonnen Kohlendioxid bis 2050 eingespart.

Yes it is, but apparently someone is deleting the reference to the article... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.222.49.180 (talk) 13:22, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

This article has no basis in fact and doesn't seem worth mentionning. There are always disgruntled employees in any organization. —Preceding unsigned comment added by EnergyStatMan (talk • contribs) 22:29, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

IEA logo
the agency now has a new logo —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.222.54.180 (talk) 01:05, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Odd Article
I find the focus of this article very odd. It's loaded with critiques of the agency, but it doesn't tell us much about the agency or what it does. I came to this page to learn what the IEA is, and I leave no wiser, other than that some folks think they're pro-oil. I really don't care about the bias (although it shouldn't really be most of the article). What I do care about is that commentary has supplanted factual content. Can anyone with knowledge of the agency fill in more of the basics of what the IEA is and does? What is its mission? What projects is it involved in? What are its successes, if any? How big is it and how large is its budget? How is it governed? Someone must think it performs a useful function; what is that function? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 169.253.4.21 (talk) 18 February 2011


 * this article is in need of repair, I can't believe whomever editted it just left it in the state it is currently in, it's a disgrace.Boundarylayer (talk) 21:36, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

Publications
IEA publishes a ton of stuff, and it is very difficult to navigate in. So I would like to update Wikipedia with some kind of overview. I have written the stuff below, but there are still a lot to be uncovered, stuff that I could not find out.

IEA produces approximately 70 free and 30 priced publications per year. The most significant is the priced World Energy Outlook, published annually. There are three major categories of reports:


 * Technology Roadmap*: These are each part of an overall work: limiting the CO2-emissions in energy-related activities to 50% by 2050, a goal set in 2008. A technology roadmap is a plan for how to make technology developments meet specific goals, and as such a help to plan research and a help to predict the future state of various technologies. Each IEA roadmap deals with one technology such as "Wind Energy" (2009). Sometimes they are more focused, e.g. "China Wind Energy Development Roadmap 2050" (2012). For each roadmap, both a comprehensive report and a two-page fold-out are published. All roadmaps are free. (source: http://www.iea.org/roadmaps/)


 * Country review*: Each report deals with a specific IEA member country. These are published with typically 3-6 years intervals.


 * Medium term reports*: These are published for each of the four primary energy sources: oil, gas, coal and renewables. (source: foreword in http://www.iea.org/publications/freepublications/publication/MTGMR2012_web.pdf) Some are free, some are priced. (I don't know why it's called Medium-term, that word means nothing to me).


 * Statistics*: Various summarizing statistics. (I have only seen priced)

History of IEA
This edit brings the article up-to-date, but removes historical information. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 17:20, 6 September 2015 (UTC).
