Phil: So, our project is going to cover three main areas. Firstly, comparing the main forms of alternative energy: solar, wind, wave, and bio fuels in terms of production costs. Secondly, we'll take solar as an example and do a cost prediction, and last, we'll analyse whether they're likely to replace tradition fossil fuels in the future.

Tutor: That sounds like a comprehensive project with a good focus. Now, what data are you going to use and what approach will you use for the analysis?

Jakie: Ah! Now that's something we do agree on! We want to use the reports you gave us in our last lecture and some statistics from the government's Environment and Energy Department. In terms of analysis, we're going to use a cross-referencing method where we compare each of the goernment reports with the Robertson report and highlight any differences. Then we'll analyse these to see why the differences exist and where more research needs to be done.
