Today, Secretary of Energy Chu took the podium at the U.S. Center in Copenhagen. He delivered his remarks to an overflow crowd and even took questions by satellite from feeds in Shanghai and Dublin. Secretary Chu’s presentation topic was "Leading in Energy Efficiency and Renewables," and he also announced the launch of a new initiative to promote clean energy technologies in developing countries under the Major Economies Forum on Energy and Climate (Click here for a Fact Sheet). The hard work on negotiations continued throughout the weekend, and as we enter the second week, the Bella Center is now officially packed.
