International Standby Power Conference - Time for Global Action

The Australian Greenhouse Office, with support from the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation and the International Energy Agency, hosted an international conference on standby power at the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra, 6-7 November 2006. The Conference sought to develop an internationally consistent model to address excessive standby power consumption.
