The '''Energy Technology Data Exchange''' (ETDE) was formed in 1987 and officially ended 30 June 2014.<ref name=home2016>

The '''Energy Technology Data Exchange''' (ETDE) was formed in 1987. It was initiated as, and continues to be, a multilateral agreement, replacing numerous other [[bilateral agreement]]s. The [[multilateral agreement]] is for the international exchange of [[energy research]], development, and information exchange. The exchange has resulted in a [[database]] which is a substantial collection of energy research, technology, and development (RTD) information (ETDEWEB - described below). The collection of information is generated from energy RTD literature published in member countries and through other partnering arrangements with organizations such as the [[International Nuclear Information System]] (a unit of the [[International Atomic Energy Agency]]) and the [[IEA Clean Coal Centre]]. This has the effect of creating a broad spectrum of information that is included in the ETDE database. The range of content includes [[fossil fuel]]s, [[renewable energies]] (including [[Hydrogen]]), End-Use ([[Building]]s, [[Industry]] and [[Transport]]), [[fusion]] and cross-sectional activities. Furthermore, this fulfills the need for timely exchange of [[global information]].<ref name=SouAfri2007>

Officers of the Executive Committee included a Chair and two Vice-Chairs, elected to three-year terms. Day-to-day operations were managed through an operating agent organization, which reported to the Executive Committee.

==Energy Database==

ETDE's '''Energy Database''' iswas a substantial collection that focusesfocused on [[energy research]] literature and [[technology]] literature. This database containscontained more than 4.5 million abstracted and indexed records, and iswas updated twice per month. Temporal coverage iswas from 1974 to present day2014. The principle access point for this database iswas [[ETDEWEB]] (see next section). However, access iswas also available through commercial CD-ROM products, commercial online hosts, and some countries offeroffered their own productproducts for access. Member country representatives supplysupplied the best options for their citizencitizens to access to this database. Furthermore, the United States feedsfed this database to [[Dialog (online database)|Dialog]] which providesprovided online access or CD-ROM format. Likewise, Germany feedsfed this database to [[STN International]].<ref name=energyDB/>

Broad subject coverage includesincluded information on [[energy research and development]]; [[energy policy]] and planning; basic sciences (e.g., [[physics]], [[chemistry]] and [[biomedical]]) and [[materials research]]; the [[Sustainability|environmental impact]] of [[energy production]] and use, including [[climate change]]; [[energy conservation]]; nuclear (e.g., [[Nuclear reactor technology|reactors]], isotopes, [[nuclear waste management |waste management]]); coal and [[fossil fuels]]; and renewable energy technologies (e.g., [[solar energy]], [[wind energy]], [[biomass]], [[Geothermal power|geothermal]], hydro), [[nuclear energy|nuclear]], coal, and global climate change information. However, theThe scope of topical coverage inwas notworldwide limitedin tosome only the aforementionedareas. Also coverage is not only member countries, but world-wide. In addition, thisThe database iswas used by scientists, researchers, engineers, policymakers, information specialists, librarians, industry leaders, university faculty, and university students, among others.<ref name=energyDB/>

== ETDEWEB ==

Energy Technology Data Exchange employsemployed an [[internet]] related database to disseminate the energy research and technology information which iswas collected and exchanged. The database iswas named '''''ETDE World Energy Base''''' or '''''ETDEWEB'''''. <ref name=home>

ETDEWEB iswas produced and made available by ETDE. It hashad over 4,362,0005 million references for literature that encompassesencompassed broad topical coverage, and allowsallowed access to more than 500 000 full text fordocuments 355,000and reports, which amountsamounted to more than 1 million pages. ETDEWEB hashad unique access to these reports, which arewere often not available through other conventional sources. ThousandsOver ofa million other references linklinked to sites containing cited documents. Open access iswas provided to member countries, devlopingcountries with developing country status, or by Executive Committee decision.<ref name=etdewebpg>

Online access was extended through the wordwideenergy.org website.

===WorldWideENERGY.org (WWE)===

After the previous ETDE consortium ended in 2014, the WWE application allowed ETDEWEB and other content to remain accessible, thanks to remaining funds and former member country support. But this extended access also ended in July 2016.<ref name=WWE>
