The Institute of Energy (IOE)

1927 - The Institution of Fuel Economy Engineers IFEE (created 1925) and The Institution of Fuel Technology IFT (creaded 1927) merged to form The Institute of Fuel (IoF) – concerned with the selection and utilization of energy and all fuel resources. 1979 - The Institute of Fuel changed its name to The Institute of Energy (IoE) – because “our concern must now also include nuclear energy, renewable energy resources such as wave, wind and tidal power, solar and geothermal energy, the economics of energy conversion processes and of course, energy policy. The central role that energy plays in the economy is, at last, appreciated by politicians, administrators and even by ‘the man in the street’.
