WEC Inside 

   

15–30 June 2014 

Welcome to WEC Inside, your exclusive briefing from your WEC network

Special message for our readers 

As most of you will have noticed, WEC Inside has evolved over the last few years. To continue to build on our success and in response to positive feedback from our members, from July, we will be producing a new monthly online publication: World Energy Focus.

This will be an 8-page pdf e-publication consisting of news, features, interviews, and WEC member insights on current energy developments. It will allow more space for members’ innovation stories and analysis of latest developments in the energy sector.

World Energy Focus will be sent exclu-sively to WEC members and member com-mittees on the first Monday of each month, then circulated more widely to external sub-scribers on the first Thursday of the month,

WEC Inside – building on our success thus allowing members to have an exclusive preview of the insights. We are working very closely with an external team of seasoned energy writers on this to ensure that we are able to deliver enhanced value to our members and ensure that WEC is increasing-ly visible.

WEC Inside will continue to be published as an exclusive WEC member platform for internal communications. It will serve to up-date our members about internal develop-ments: focusing on the latest on WEC pro-jects, studies, insights, WEC meetings, includ-ing how members can participate. As we will also be producing the World Energy Focus, the frequency of WEC Inside will be reduced to once per month, to be sent out in the mid-dle of each month.

15–30 June 2014 WEC Inside 1

Following on the success of the WEC videos played at the beginning of each day of the 2013 World Energy Congress in Daegu, the WEC communications team has developed two new videos available for WEC members to use.

These videos can be hosted on websites, played at events to set the scene and fire discussion, sent to potential members to explain the value of the WEC network, plus more. “About WEC” provides a three-minute intro-duction of what the WEC is as an institution: http://bit.ly/1njaJ2o

News 

“The energy world is at a tipping point” is a video on global energy issues. It com-bines all the key messages from WEC re-ports, and therefore is a fine tool for setting the scene for a conference, roundtable discussion, or conference discussion that you may be involved in: http://bit.ly/1iOGbmC
