In a major restructuring, some 25% of the content of every issue of Energize magazine will henceforth be dedicated to the subject of Sustainable Energy in 2011 and thereafter.
In every issue of Energize in 2011, there will now be four main sections, covering all aspects of electric power and energy, namely:
- Sustainable Energy
- Generation
- Transmission & Distribution
- Application
This new focus on Sustainable Energy in Energize magazine reflects the growing urgency and market interest in the research, development, regulation, economics, business and application of renewable, sustainable and energy efficient solutions to the energy and electricity problems facing South Africa and the world.
Energize magazine aims to:
- Keep readers abreast of developments, applications and news on the efficient and sustainable use of energy, by the publication of relevant technical articles and company, project, product and technology news, views and opinion, by expert authors, suppliers and users
- Provide a vibrant forum of communication for its readers, the industry and the wider public on the important subject of Sustainable Energy.
Participation in Energize on the subject of Sustainable Energy by relevant and interested authors, institutes, industry associations, companies, suppliers, users, readers, industry leaders and experts, in the form of technical articles, other editorial submissions and advertising support, is therefore welcomed and proactively encouraged.
