technological transfers. This phenomenon creates dilemmas, particularly in EU where the high technology is in the heart of the exports. One example: this of the process of call for tender engaged by China for the construction of four nuclear power stations of the third generation : to supply reactors thus to sell the “know-how” would imply that China would produce itself the next series of these reactors or not to supply them and to lose a big market. Areva (France) did not seem ready to make such

definitely better than the competitor advantage. For France, the energy industry highly fulfils theses characteristics. Indeed, the French know-how in nuclear field is unique and the very high technology required by this activity make this expertise difficult to be copied. Besides, the different components of the French energy industry (nuclear, electricity, gas, hydraulic) are a “flexible” advantage. Finally, the good reputation and the international sustainability of French companies such as Areva

C’est également le cas des constructeurs de réacteurs Westinghouse et d’ABB Nuclear (qui avait peu avant repris Combustion Engineering) vendus respectivement en 1998 et 1999 à la compagnie britannique du combustible nucléaire BNFL privatisée en partie à partir de 2003. Le secteur nucléaire russe relève aussi de ce schéma de concentration

renewable sources of energy and through energy efficiency by 2016 over the 2001 level. The purpose of this compendium is to present a concise overview of the progress of technology, economy and market in relation to renewable energy. The publication will also present examples of Norwegian companies that deliver relevant technology. The compilation of the information for this publication has been carried out by the consultancy company SWECO Grøner in close cooperation with the Norwegian Water Resources
