Aeolian production worldwide

In the last years we have assisted at an exponential growth of aeolic power installed and production of electricity generated by wind. In 2010 a power of 39 GW has been installed worldwide, a 20% increase if compared to previous year, reaching a total power rising up to 198 GW: biggest contributors were China (44.7 GW), USA (40.2 GW), Germany (27.2 GW), Spain (20.7 GW), India (13.2 GW), with Europe as a whole covering 42% of world aeolic power. The 86.5% of installed power in the world is located in just ten countries: China, USA, Germany, Spain, India, Italy, France, Britain, Canada and Denmark. In 2010 the major efforts to boost wind power installed are from China, that, with an increase of 18.9% over 2009, reaches 27% of installed power in the world, and from the USA, that, with an increase of 5.1%, reach 24%.

Traditionally, since the beginning of aeolic era, the countries that invested and produced more have been Germany, Spain and the USA. In the last 5 years a new, important "outsider" has broken through, China, which in 2010 becomes the first countries with an installed capacity of 44.7% (18.9% more than previous year), becoming then the major emerging country in this field. Italy has always been on the cutting edge and in 2010 Italy occupies a honourable 6th place after China, USA, Germany, Spain, India.

In 2010 worldwide aeolic energy production covered 2-2.5% of the total amount of electricity produced; nevertheless, in some countries it is an important part of national electricity balance: as an example, at the end of 2010, in Denmark, 24% of power consumed was produced by aeolic sources, in Portugal 14.8%, in Spain 14.4%, in Ireland 10.1% and in Germany 9.3 %, while China, though at the top of the list, covers only 1% of electricity consumption with wind power.

Aeolic production in Europe

During 2010 in EU27 181.7 TWh of electricity have been produced by aeolic means, of which 171.1 TWh thanks to onshore wind farms and 10.6 TWh from offshore wind farm. 5.3% of the total consumption of electricity in Europe in 2010 (compared to 2% in 2002) was produced through wind power with about 71,620 turbines.

From 1996 to 2010 aeolic power installed in Europe has grown at a yearly rate of 97%, passing from 6.1 GW in 1996 to 198GW in 2010. Despite this, there are still many disparities among different countries: Germany (27%), Spain (25%) Great Britain (8%) France (6.5%) and Italy (6.4%) sustain by themselves 72.9% of the entire European production.

A significant contribution

The EU Directive (2009/28/CE) establishes that 20% of total EU energy production has to come from renewable sources by 2020, indicating some common guidelines to reach this goal as well. In 2009 sustainable sources have produced about 13% of the total amount of energy consumed in the world, with hydroelectric and solid biofuels having the biggest share (thanks to poorest countries' contribution, where use of solid fuels for heating, cooking and illumination purposes is widespread). In 2010 production of aeolic energy worldwide has covered about 2-2.5% of the total amount of energy consumed: it may look a very modest share, however the production of aeolic energy is expanding fast, playing a fundamental role in the delicate and difficult passage to an ever smaller reliance on fossil fuels.

The aeolic field is indeed the one, amongst all renewable sources, which is recording the biggest annual increases, with a growth higher than 7% a year between 1996 and 2010, and an even larger increase (38%) between 2006 and 2010.

The Secretarial and Office Professional Ethics

Copyright © 2001-2005

The ethics of a Secretary and Office Professional are moral principles relating to the job that you will be bound by. These requirements are automatically taken on board when you accept any position as a Secretary or Office Professional and you will be expected to uphold them at all times. You really do take the Secretarial Oath when you become a Secretary.

Ethics - No 1

!$ \bullet !$ Confidentiality - Always keep information private and confidential about the firm you work for and its clients. Never repeat sensitive information even if you are in a discussion where everyone is wondering what is happening and you know. Always be trusted.

Ethics - No 2

!$ \bullet !$ Honesty - do not take the credit for something you did not do and do not let someone else enjoy the credit for something you did do! Always tell the truth. Trust me, you will be more credible with both your boss and fellow workers.

Ethics - No 3

!$ \bullet !$ Loyalty - always be loyal to your boss and company.

Never sell them out at any cost. However, having said this, your boss also has to prove to you he/she is worthy of your loyalty. Do not get caught up in the office gossip. If you display your loyalty you will receive the same in return.

Ethics - No 4

!$ \bullet !$ Reliable - show you are reliable. Be punctual for work and meetings at all times, and remember, always take the relevant documentation with you to the meetings. Do not abuse the 'sickie'. You just never know what your future holds in relation to your health. Ensure every task you are given is completed on time and to the best of your ability.

Ethics - No 5

!$ \bullet !$ Responsible - Prove you are responsible by setting priorities and carrying out tasks in a timely manner. Always meet deadlines when they are given. Your boss puts his/her confidence in you. Write yourself a 'to do' list - even if its priority changes 10 times a day. Do not delegate if the job cannot be done as efficiently and accurately as you would have done it. If you do delegate, always check that the project is on track time wise. Do not just forget about it because someone else is doing it.

Ethics - No 6

!$ \bullet !$ Work unsupervised - Always keep your work up to date and be productive. Meet deadlines. Priorities, and priorities. Every day write up a list of the tasks you need to undertake to ensure none are overlooked and have them in priority order.

Ethics - No 7

!$ \bullet !$ Be Co-operative - always assist and share your expertise with your colleagues wherever it is possible. Always be happy to carry out duties asked of you....but also know when to say 'No' (gently) and explain why you can not do the task asked of you. Do not overload yourself. It is becoming more popular in the workplace these days for Secretaries to take on the training role within their organization.

Ethics - No 8

!$ \bullet !$ Flexibility - If its 5.00pm and your boss needs an important report typed and faxed immediately - do it! The best jobs are where you have a 'give and take' arrangement. You just never know when you may want an hour off at a minute's notice to attend an emergency.

Ethics - No 9

!$ \bullet !$ Multi-Skilling - Learn as much as possible about computer programs and other positions in the organization. You just may need this knowledge when you apply for advancement within the firm. This is also particularly useful as you are usually the one who has to show the boss how to use some of the computer programs. The trend these days is for the boss to have more 'hands on' with software e.g. e-mail, spread sheeting. Like I said above, you could be asked to take on training too if you were familiar with the programs.

Ethics - No 10

!$ \bullet !$ Bribery - Do not be tempted to accept gifts or favors from internal or external clients just in case there's an underlying reason. Always follow your Company's procedures and policies. Very rarely you will ever get something for nothing - there is usually always a trade-off. You may end up paying the ultimate price - your job!

Incorporate the above ethics in your role and you will find both your boss and your work colleagues will respect you as a person and your position as a secretary.

This is also particularly useful as you are usually the one who has to show the boss how to use some of the computer programs. The trend these days is for the boss to have more 'hands on' with software e.g. e-mail, spread sheeting. Like I said above, you could be asked to take on training too if you were familiar with the programs.

Ethics - No 10

!$ \bullet !$ Bribery - Do not be tempted to accept gifts or favors from internal or external clients just in case there's an underlying reason. Always follow your Company's procedures and policies. Very rarely you will ever get something for nothing - there is usually always a trade-off. You may end up paying the ultimate price - your job!

Incorporate the above ethics in your role and you will find both your boss and your work colleagues will respect you as a person and your position as a secretary.

The Secretarial and Office Professional Ethics

Copyright © 2001-2005

The ethics of a Secretary and Office Professional are moral principles relating to the job that you will be bound by. These requirements are automatically taken on board when you accept any position as a Secretary or Office Professional and you will be expected to uphold them at all times. You really do take the Secretarial Oath when you become a Secretary.

Ethics - No 1

!$ \bullet !$ Confidentiality - Always keep information private and confidential about the firm you work for and its clients. Never repeat sensitive information even if you are in a discussion where everyone is wondering what is happening and you know. Always be trusted.

Ethics - No 2

!$ \bullet !$ Honesty - do not take the credit for something you did not do and do not let someone else enjoy the credit for something you did do! Always tell the truth. Trust me, you will be more credible with both your boss and fellow workers.

Ethics - No 3

!$ \bullet !$ Loyalty - always be loyal to your boss and company.

Never sell them out at any cost. However, having said this, your boss also has to prove to you he/she is worthy of your loyalty. Do not get caught up in the office gossip. If you display your loyalty you will receive the same in return.

Ethics - No 4

!$ \bullet !$ Reliable - show you are reliable. Be punctual for work and meetings at all times, and remember, always take the relevant documentation with you to the meetings. Do not abuse the 'sickie'. You just never know what your future holds in relation to your health. Ensure every task you are given is completed on time and to the best of your ability.

Ethics - No 5

!$ \bullet !$ Responsible - Prove you are responsible by setting priorities and carrying out tasks in a timely manner. Always meet deadlines when they are given. Your boss puts his/her confidence in you. Write yourself a 'to do' list - even if its priority changes 10 times a day. Do not delegate if the job cannot be done as efficiently and accurately as you would have done it. If you do delegate, always check that the project is on track time wise. Do not just forget about it because someone else is doing it.

Ethics - No 6

!$ \bullet !$ Work unsupervised - Always keep your work up to date and be productive. Meet deadlines. Priorities, and priorities. Every day write up a list of the tasks you need to undertake to ensure none are overlooked and have them in priority order.

Ethics - No 7

!$ \bullet !$ Be Co-operative - always assist and share your expertise with your colleagues wherever it is possible. Always be happy to carry out duties asked of you....but also know when to say 'No' (gently) and explain why you can not do the task asked of you. Do not overload yourself. It is becoming more popular in the workplace these days for Secretaries to take on the training role within their organization.

Ethics - No 8

!$ \bullet !$ Flexibility - If its 5.00pm and your boss needs an important report typed and faxed immediately - do it! The best jobs are where you have a 'give and take' arrangement. You just never know when you may want an hour off at a minute's notice to attend an emergency.

Ethics - No 9

!$ \bullet !$ Multi-Skilling - Learn as much as possible about computer programs and other positions in the organization. You just may need this knowledge when you apply for advancement within the firm.
