Cleansource Intro
- 1. can the energy industry save the world? a 2-minute proposal
- 2. climate change is scary
- 3. We may already be past the safe level Safe level? (Hansen et al)
- 4. Yet government and voters are not meeting on action... Government tell us what we dont you want? action? know! Voters
- 5. there is a lot of negative thinking.. which doesnt help
- 6. could a more positive vision help?
- 7. here¡¯s the simplistic version to start with...
- 8. Energy is the primary source of GHGs energy
- 9. but energy is great
- 10. it is the engine of civilisation
- 11. it powers our knowledge banks
- 12. and we need more... for everyone on the planet
- 13. what would that look like?... to power 9 billion people? - at european levels? 9 billion x 50 MWh/y =
- 14. and how does this compare 4.5 x 10^5 TWh/y
- 15. say, to the energy available from the sun?
- 16. (compares pretty well...) 4.5 x 10^5 TWh/y
- 18. 2.3 x 10^8 Solar energy TWh/y on land 4.5 x 10^5 TWh/y source: Nitsch
- 19. ... energy also available as wind... 2.6 x 10^7 Wind energy TWh/y on land source: Nitsch
- 20. Hydro Wave & Tidal ... and many other Geothermal renewed sources Biomass
- 21. and for the transition, we have low-C options including nuclear and fossil with carbon capture and storage
- 22. clean is now a small share... 5000 Clean energy as share of European electricity 4000 3000 but clean energy 2000 growing at 25 - 40% per year 1000 renewable nuclear 0 hydro 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 source: IEA / WRI
- 23. Clean as share of European electricity 5000 4000 3000 if growth 2000 maintained... 1000 renewable nuclear hydro 0 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017
- 24. Clean as share of European electricity 5000 4000 3000 it becomes a big share, 2000 and with the right policies... 1000 0 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017
- 25. (zooming out) 5000 4000 3000 2000 1000 0 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017
- 26. Clean as share of all European energy 30000 25000 ...could we repower Europe 20000 in around 20 years? 15000 heat, transport 10000 5000 electricity 0 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20
- 27. such a programme would lead to large-scale growth in manufacturing
- 28. such a programme would lead to large-scale growth in manufacturing
- 29. such a programme would lead to large-scale growth in manufacturing
- 33. ... and jobs
- 34. ... and would equip us to go on to power the world
- 35. Is this a vision which could win popular support?
- 36. Should we try to make a plan?

- 38. .. and possibly a large-scale grid, and panregional market image: Czisch
- 39. its a big task
- 40. that¡¯s why we¡¯re creating:
- 41. the knowledge platform for the design and construction of a clean energy system www.cleansource.me
- 42. a not for profit funded through membership www.cleansource.me
- 43. from the core industries energy € finance bringing together companies and experts engineering policy
- 44. to aggregate knowledge and expertise
- 45. to plan and design the clean energy system ! ?
- 46. to communicate the facts and the vision !
- 47. to collaborate to make it happen ... solution yes would be to join ...
