Earth, Energy and Environmental Sciences: Energy information
A guide to resources across a wide variety of disciplines related to the earth sciences.
Energy information
- Introduction
- Energy industry and market research databases
- Government and technical reports
- Data
- GCEP technical library
These resources will help you find:
- Trends on wind power generation
- Information about energy, including prices, production, and consumption.
- World supply and consumption of oil.
- Natural gas worldwide supply, consumption, and prices.
- Geospatial data on various energy sources.
Note: Many of these resources are available through Stanford Graduate School of Business.
- EcoinventEcoinvent provides international life cycle data about the environmental impacts of products and services (e.g., agriculture, manufacturing, transportation, energy). Stanford affiliates are required to agree to a End User License Agreement (EULA) before getting access to the database.
- Engineering villageEngineering Village is an information discovery platform that includes access to Compendex (Computerized Engineering Index), the most comprehensive bibliographic database of scientific and technical engineering research available, covering all engineering disciplines. It includes millions of bibliographic citations and abstracts from thousands of engineering journals and conference proceedings. When combined with the Engineering Index Backfile (1884-1969), Compendex covers well over 120 years of core engineering literature. Users can also search and locate Knovel e-book, journal and conference proceedings on Engineering Village and link through to Knovel for full-text access.
- BMI: Business Monitor InternationalProvides in-depth market research reports on various industries and global markets, emphasizing emerging markets. Also provides extensive economic and political risk ratings and analysis, macroeconomic analysis and forecasts, and financial analysis of debt and equity. Includes profiles for many multinational companies and their subsidiaries, and intra-daily alerts on economic, industrial, and political developments, business deals, multinational joint ventures, and regulatory changes. Also includes podcasts, webinars, and a tool for creating charts and tables to illustrate data and forecasting.
- OnePetroOnePetro.org is a multi-society library that provides a simple way to search for and access a broad range of technical literature related to the oil and gas exploration and production industry. From one place, you can search and buy documents from many different professional societies, or similar organizations, that serve the oil and gas industry.
- OurEnergyPolicyOurEnergyPolicy provides a free and comprehensive resource database for environmental and energy publications.
- ScopusScopus, launched in November 2004, is the largest abstract and citation database containing both peer-reviewed research literature and quality web sources. With over 18,500 titles from more than 5,000 international publishers, SciVerse Scopus offers researchers a quick, easy and comprehensive resource to support their research needs in the scientific, technical, medical and social sciences fields and, more recently, also in the arts and humanities.
- NetAdvantageFeatures Standard & Poor's market investment news, including market snapshot, company quote, equity indexes page, the Outlook's market insight, S & P stock picks and pans, economic calendar, economic insight, industry in focus, and Stovall's sector watch
- EnverusData on U.S. oil drilling, including current and historical data on oil well construction, production, leases, permits, etc.
- Advanced energy legislation trackerLegal information about clean energy legislation across the 50 states.
- CQ researcher Congress collectionHistoric legislative background information.
- CQ researcher online energy reportsEnergy background information, charts and graphs, and source lists for further reading on energy issues.
- Science.govScience.gov searches over 60 databases and over 2200 selected websites from 15 federal agencies.
- OECDiLibrary: energyOECD iLibrary is the online library of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) featuring its books, papers and statistics and is the gateway to OECD’s analysis and data. Includes series such as the Energy Policies of IEA Countries and the annual World Energy Outlook.
- SciTech ConnectSciTech Connect (formerly OSTI's Information Bridge and Energy Citations Database) includes technical reports, bibliographic citations, journal articles, conference papers, books, multimedia, and data information sponsored by DOE
