09 July 2008 Paris - "With energy demand continuing to grow, prices breaking records and concern about climate change intensifying, we need policies that bring sustainable solutions," said Nobuo Tanaka, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency (IEA) today, after the G8 Summit in Toyako/Japan came to a close. "We are very pleased that G8 leaders are so engaged in finding and implementing these policies. They recognise the need for greater investment to ensure energy supply, but are also committed to increasing levels of energy efficiency and promoting new energy technology," Mr. Tanaka added.
