b'Energy Efficiency Markets interviews Saifur Rahman, vice president of new initiatives and outreach for IEEE Power and Energy Society, about how President-elect Obama\\u2019s energy policies will affect the world-wide energy crisis. He explains how Obama\\u2019s policies will create a ripple effect around the world because people are looking to Obama to claim a leadership role in energy. His policies will lay the framework for other countries to follow and execute their own energy plan, says Saifur. He also critiques Obama\\u2019s call for 1 million plug-in hybrid cars by 2015.'
