Climate fraudster Pachauri resurfaces: Now he allegedly also knows something about energy policy

Exclusive: Pachauri: I.P.C.C. report can guide renewable energy industry - Renewable Energy - Ecoseed Information Network
“The [Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s] Special Report on Renewable Energy Sources and Climate Change Mitigation is the most comprehensive compilation of knowledge on renewable energy assessed by the leading scientists, technologists and policy analysts familiar with this field, from all over the world,” the I.P.C.C.’s Rajendra K. Pachauri told EcoSeed in an interview.
...
The new I.P.C.C. special report said 80 percent of the world’s energy supply could be met by renewables by 2050 provided it is backed by “the right enabling policies.” The I.P.C.C. studied six renewable energy sectors – bioenergy, direct solar energy, geothermal, hydropower, ocean energy and wind energy.
...
“Given the fact that I.P.C.C.’s reports are policy relevant without being policy prescriptive, this particular document will receive a great deal of interest from policy makers, business organizations, researchers and the public at large,” Mr. Pachauri said.
