摘要:I am honoured to be serving
as President of the
IAEE during 2004. From
humble beginnings, the
Association has advanced
to a position where it is the
pre-eminent organisation
that serves the broad range
of professional interests of
energy economists around
the globe. However, we
must not become complacent.
Our profession is
expanding rapidly in order
to address energy infrastructure, environmental, and security
concerns. The IAEE through its conferences, newsletter, and
journal must remain at the forefront of rigorous analysis and
debate on these issues. Our achievements to date have been
due to the commitment and enthusiasm of members over the
past quarter-century. With the “greying” of the organisation,
and individuals within it (for those who can see my picture
in colour!), it is essential that younger practitioners be encouraged
to drive the organisation forward to meet these
challenges of tomorrow. To this end, I intend to give special
emphasis and encouragement during my year in office to expanding
the already excellent facilities and financial support
provided to student members by the IAEE. I would welcome
input from all members, particularly those entering the profession
and younger researchers, on possible initiatives.
