Welcome to Singapore’s International Energy Week (IEW) from 3 to 7 November 2008. Jointly organised by the Energy Market Authority (EMA) and the Energy Studies Institute (ESI), the IEW will be a week for international and local policy makers, academics, energy experts and industry players to exchange and catalyse ideas on energy options and strategies for the future. With the Singapore government’s commitment in creating a global clean energy hub, investing S$350 million in research, development and technology, delegates can see the strides organisations have taken to shape the energy sector. Featuring a spectrum of industry topics – energy efficiency, traditional energy (oil, gas and coal), renewable energy (wind, solar and biofuels), alternative energy (nuclear, hydrogen, fuel cells), climate change, green buildings, energy investment and much more, participants can choose their areas of interest. This inaugural event with conferences, exhibitions, seminars, workshops, debates, site visits and hospitality programmes will illustrate Singapore’s hopes to grow and become the centre for developing energy policies and strategies that are key to today's government and industry decision makers.

Against the backdrop of soaring oil and food prices in recent months, this debate will highlight the pros and cons of expanding the use of biofuels as an alternative transport fuel with the diversion of cropland, water and fertilizer supplies away from food production. The positive experience of some biofuel producing countries and regions will be considered against the negative experience of other areas. Will biofuels ever fully, or even partially replace gasoline and diesel? There are many conflicting and confusing reports on this issue. This debate will help listeners understand the facts.
