Latest News—

Both the IEA and ETDE place a strong emphasis on working with international partners in order to fulfill the need for timely exchange of global information. To meet this goal, ETDE cooperates with other IEA agreements and has strong ties with other international organizations. These cooperative efforts allow ETDE to provide a broad information resource with significant benefits including:

• accelerating technological progress by filling in knowledge gaps
• encouraging co-operative advances and reducing duplicated research
• strengthening the database content and standardization
• ensuring worldwide coverage of energy information in specific areas
• providing additional resources and facilitating international communication by linking Web sites
• promoting ETDE visibility in other databases and directories

Related IEA Information Agreements

For information about all the various IEA Agreements, including those considered information centers, visit the IEA site http://www.iea.org/Textbase/techno/index.asp

The following centers have information components which may be of interest to the ETDE community. ETDE strives to include publications generated by all the IEA agreements in its database.

• IEA Air Infiltration and Ventilation Centre (AIVC)
• IEA Greenhouse Gas R&D Programme (IEA GHG)
• IEA Heat Pump Centre (HPC)
• Climate Technology Initiative (CTI)
• IEA Coal Research -- The Clean Coal Centre

ETDE has a special relationship with the Clean Coal Centre to exchange database records. Thus, ETDE is able to offer more worldwide coverage of coal-related information.

Other International Organizations

• International Nuclear Information System

One of ETDE's key partners is the International Atomic Energy Agency's International Nuclear Information System, more commonly known as INIS. This relationship is particularly strong in the areas of data exchange and in authorities such as the thesaurus where having a common format is critical. Because of this collaboration and the fact that all ETDE members are also INIS members, most of the data in the INIS database is also included in ETDE’s Energy Database. This means that the database coverage in nuclear areas is worldwide.

• CrossRef

ETDE is an affiliate member of CrossRef. ETDE uses this affiliation to benefit database users by looking up and adding Digital Object Identifier (DOI) information to its database records when possible. Users then gain the ability to hyperlink directly to the publishers to get copies of the articles/papers/reports.

• Elsevier

ETDE has a special project with Elsevier to improve database coverage and timeliness for the energy journals published by Elsevier.

• USDOE’s Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI)

ETDE partners with OSTI to make Science.gov and Science Conferences available in the distributed searching feature within ETDEWEB.
