Renew- NATTA newsletter
Renewable energy news and policy

The original and best source of up to date news and analysis just got better!

16012010_224213_0.jpgRenew is the 34 page bimonthly newsletter of NATTA, the Network for Alternative Technology and Technology Assessment.

NATTA was set up in 1976, with its base at the Open University. Renew was launched in 1979. Now in its 30th year, Renew has been widely recognized as a leading source of up to date and reliable information.

NATTA is now independent of the OU, and Renew is now offered to NATTA members in PDF format in colour.

Renew covers UK and world news and developments in the area of renewables and sustainable energy - bringing you updates on new wind, wave, tidal, solar, biomass, geothermal, hydro projects and technical breakthroughs. In addition, it offers critical analysis of the policy context in which these new energy supply technologies are emerging and operating. It also looks at energy efficiency, and at the wider debates over energy use and climate change.

We've included a sample, if you want to see what it looks like:

We've also produced an Index to back issues of Renew, from No. 155  (May-June 2005) onward, accessible as a MS Word file hereRenewIndex.doc

Watch our short YouTube video introducing Renew and reviewing the current issue.
