Over the past year, we have witnessed some progress with regard to improving existing capacity and bringing new projects online. With the country continually suffering from blackouts, stemming from inadequate hydropower output (primarily as a result of drought) and inefficiencies within the power network - securing supply and stabilising the power grid is essential. As such, we deem the steps towards power capacity expansion as positive. However, despite this positive momentum, Venezuela continues to significantly underperform compared with its regional peers. The country's business environment is notably unattractive, with high levels of corruption, an opaque tendering process and extremely low levels of liberalisation within the power market, while the political environment remains precarious, as evidenced by recent protests. Furthermore, electricity output from successfully commissioned plants is at the mercy of Venezuela's ageing and inefficient T&D infrastructure - with power outages still a pressing concern for the majority of the population.

Setting up a Photovoltaic (PV) solar system may seem to be an overwhelming task. But homeowners who have been using them for a long time now attest to having it as a long-term investment with numerous benefits like lower electric bills, lower carbon marks, and higher home values.

The Qatari power sector is set for strong growth over the coming decade as the country gears up for the FIFA World Cup in 2022. Heavy government spending, robust economic growth and a growing population will see demand for electricity rise significantly over next few years, and the government has outlined its commitment to investing in power infrastructure to satisfy that demand.

The major players in Asian power supply are clamouring to invest in Cambodia, with the result that huge capacity expansion can be expected from around 2015, as hydro-, gas- and coal-based schemes are introduced. This should leave the country with plentiful spare generation. Neighbouring Vietnam, which will finance a number of power projects, plans to make good use of Cambodia's potential export capability, as does Thailand if a major coal-fired scheme comes to fruition.

Spain's electricity market is struggling in the face of an unclear regulatory environment and a sluggish economy. Keen to cut costs, the government wants to reduce renewable energy subsidies, but it risks the wrath of providers who invested in the market expecting high returns. In February UAE renewable energy developer Masdar, owning a 40% stake in Torresol Energy, was the first operator to file an official legal case against Spain At the other end of the scale, major utilities have long been demanding increases in electricity prices to plug the gap between the cost of generation and the prices paid by end-users, but proposals for an 11% increase in January 2014 were rejected by the country's newly created regulator, capping prices increases at 2.3%. In the face of this confusion, some players may simply choose to invest elsewhere. E.ON is one example of this, with press reports from late 2013 suggesting the German utility is keen to sell its assets in Spain.

The report provides detailed comparative data on the number of deals and their value in the last five quarters segregated into deal types, segments, and geographies.

The November 2013 interim nuclear deal reached in Geneva has rightly been hailed as a significant development in the negotiations between Iran and the West, and marks a further improvement in the Islamic Republic's international position since the election of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani in June 2013. However, it is crucial to note that the agreement does not lift sanctions on Iran's oil exports and does not allow for additional Iranian oil sales. Any significant easing of the oil export ban would only come as part of a broader, final settlement, which would be at a minimum 6-12 months away. For the moment therefore, the Iranian hydrocarbons sector remains largely impaired due to the ongoing sanctions. In terms of gas, we believe that Iran will not be able to increase production sufficiently to satisfy mounting domestic gas demand. This will translate into increasing gas shortages. Meanwhile, Iran is claiming a succession of major oil and gas discoveries that, if proven, demonstrate considerable upside potential to its existing resource base. In a bid to secure much-needed investment, Iran is offering improved terms to contracts long seen as uncompetitive by operators, but few national oil companies are likely to bite as long as sanctions are upheld.

The UAE's stable investment climate and its robust attempts to maximise the potential of its significant oil and natural gas reserves will continue to make it a major focus of upstream investment. This, in turn, will bring it closer to its target of increasing production to 3.6mn barrels per day (b/d) by 2019. We expect steady growth in oil and gas production over the course of our forecast period. Greater attempts at increasing energy efficiency, efforts to reduce waste and increasing natural gas production will be critical to limiting the UAE's import requirement as consumption continues to outstrip demand, even with some US $25bn set to be investment in gas projects in Abu Dhabi alone.

Ensuring protection against the extreme weather and overall safety for homes and residents. Olson Iron is now providing superior quality and energy efficient security solar screens in Las Vegas. These screens keep the interior warm during winter, and cool in summer, while shielding against harmful UV rays. Unlike window tints, curtains and blinds that heat up windows before blocking the sun’s rays allowing heat to enter freely, the Olson Iron solar screens block 80-90% of the solar rays, preventing the windows from heating up, thereby ensuring much cooler interiors.

The Indonesian petrochemicals market in 2013 was a little less bullish than BMI had expected in the previous quarter with our real GDP growth forecast for the year revised down from 5.8% to 5.7%. BMI's latest Indonesia Petrochemicals Report maintains our expectations for the rate of economic expansion to ease further to 5.4% in 2014. The trends suggest slightly less dynamism over the short-term, but the market remains robust and the long-term scenario is strongly to the upside. The local industry's inability to meet domestic requirements means that the country will remain a significant net importer of petrochemicals products in Asia.

Our outlook for the Egypt power sector remains in place this quarter, as the political situation in the country remains in a state of flux. With power remaining a hot political issue, the country is in desperate need of increasing its power capacity by expanding its electricity infrastructure. However, we believe the challenge of ramping up supply is immense; not only does it require a re-prioritisation of natural gas feedstock away from exports and towards domestic consumption, but weak economic activity and high political uncertainty are set to take a toll on the country's ability to channel investments towards the sector.

The Thai petrochemicals industry is now looking to add value to basic chemicals production following a surge in olefins and polymers capacities over recent years. We examine ongoing projects and assess the short-term and long-term risks as Asia struggles with over-supply and a volatile.

Chile is one of the most attractive markets in Latin America, with political stability, abundant natural resources and a healthy economic growth outlook all adding to its appeal. But in terms of energy, Chile's geography and considerable distances between urban areas and potential sources of power, all create challenges in the electricity market. Hydroelectricity accounts for about one-third of production, but it is a sector shrouded in regulatory uncertainty and lengthy appeals processes. While rumours of new hydro projects abound, there is no guarantee these proposals will become a reality soon. In the thermal sector, gas-fired projects are gaining ground and these are appealing because of their reliability when compared to renewable sources of power. That said, renewable energy will continue to play an increasing role in the electricity mix, with solar and wind power projects particularly popular.
