The SAARC region with over a billion population is contiguous to the Indian Ocean, Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea. Utilization of ocean resources for power generation such as tidal, thermal solar and wind for energy, along with other green technologies like seaweed farming and sustainable fisheries for food would need to be incorporated in a broad framework for the region. Development of ocean-based energy systems can be integrated with early warning networks linked by satellite which c...

Energy is one of the major building blocks of modern society. Energy is needed to create goods from natural resources. Economic development and improved standards of energy are complex processes that share a common denominator: the availability of an adequate and reliable supply of energy. Political events, beginning with an oil embargo in 1973 and continuing through the Iranian revolution of 1979 and the Persian Gulf War of 1991, made many people aware of how crucial energy is to the ever...
