FOSSIL OIL GLOBAL ENERGY RESERVES
Dominant use of Oil:
Transportation 70 - 80%
Industrial Process Heating
While Oil pollutes less than Coal, the
sheer volume of usage/year, 170Qbtu
vs. 130Qbtu for coal, made it
the largest CO 2 polluter until 2007
Middle-East, Venezuela, Russia, Nigeria control almost 75% of proven reserves USA Energy Security & Prosperity Issues

FOSSIL OIL STATUS QUO Limited Resources will Escalate Price and Energy Security Issues Exponentially Mid-East Oil Russia Canada As per IEA: The world has to invest $30 Trillion by 2030 to tap new oilfields as current ones dwindle to meet the increased demand. INCREASED DEMAND FOR LIMITED RESOURCES OF FOSSIL OIL WILL ESCALATE PRICES AND INCREASE ENERGY SECURITY ISSUES EXPONENTIALLY Intake figures are in Quadrillion Btu Number of years if current oil consumption Projections by EIA are followed Black Arrows are reliable sources to USA Red Arrows are not so reliable sources to USA USA prosperity will hit a wall every-time economy heats up Economic volatility & confrontations will escalate even more. Nigeria Venezuela Wall Street Article Nov 14 th 2008 Without imports US runs out of oil rapidly

FOSSIL GAS GLOBAL ENERGY RESERVE
Dominant use of Natural Gas:
Building Heating
Electricity Peak Loads
Transportation
Compared to Coal & Oil, Natural Gas is the cleanest burning fossil fuel
Russia controls 25% of proven reserves Iran & Qatar, 30% of proven reserves Energy Security & Prosperity Dependencies

FOSSIL GAS GLOBAL STATUS QUO Bridge Fuel to SEI? Russia Europe High dependence Iran & Qatar US* self sufficient in Natural Gas Reserves?? Myth or Reality?
While US may not run out of natural gas in the short term(100 years?)
Russia has a strangle-hold on Europe gas supply
… and will increasingly manipulate to control.
Iran & Qatar will be wooed by rest of the world
even if they do not agree with their ideologies.

FOSSIL COAL GLOBAL ENERGY RESERVE
Dominant use of Coal:
Power Generation
Steel Production
Coal is the dirtiest burning fuel
among the three fossil fuels
Highest CO 2 , NO x and SO x emissions + toxic particulate emissions especially among older generation plants,
But has lowest cost of energy.
USA, Russia, China & India have good Coal Reserves CO2 emission and pollution issues are key concerns

FOSSIL COAL STATUS QUO GHG FROM COAL BASED POWER PLANTS IN CHINA ARE MAJOR CONECERNS FOR CLIMATE CHANGE US has sufficient coal reserves for 200+ years The issue is cleaner energy 70% of China’s energy comes from Coal, the only fossil fuel China can tap cheaply internally. At the projected rate of consumption, China may run out of coal in less than 50 years. Very soon China will have to import Coal too. China is aggressively setting up its footprint in South Africa and Australia to tap its resources. On a given day in 2008, 25% of pollution in LA comes from China The world’s coal energy reserves are two times more than oil and gas reserves combined. USA needs to lead the world in finding innovative solutions to find clean coal technologies as the owner of world’s largest coal reserves . Japan faces an exponential pollution ISSUES from China compared to USA

A STATUS QUO GLOBAL ENERGY SNAPSHOT Implications of Key Dynamics Shaping Energy & Climate Tsunami Energy Consumption in Quadrillion Btu China will consume more energy than USA by 2030 China exceeded USA in total CO2 emissions by 2008 and will emit double of USA by 2030 GLOBALLY, GHG emissions will double by 2030 From 1990 levels QBtu CAUSE SOURCES OF ENERGY EFFECT

The “FAT TAIL” by 2050- 2100 at the current trend rate of greenhouse gas release: There is a 99% probability the Global Temperature will rise by 3 degrees Celsius or 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit There is a 50% probability the Global Temperature will rise by 5.5 degrees Celsius or 10 degrees Fahrenheit The world will see severe environmental impact that may be irrevocable There is a 10% probability the Global Temperature will rise by 10+ degrees Celsius or 18 degrees Fahrenheit High likelyhood of Environmental Calamity impact that will be irrevocable For a more complete presentation please refer to “ Carbon Dioxide: What is Earth’s Point of No Return?” Alexander E. MacDonald, Director, NOAA ESRL See VSNI website: Data& Links & NOAA website for more .

A STATUS QUO GLOBAL ENERGY SNAPSHOT What is the Take Away from the last Few Slides? Climate change is an EFFECT The way we use our energy is the CAUSE. Can we change the way we use our energy to create a vibrant economic growth engine AND cure climate change? Our future generation is depending on us. You treat the cause to change the effect We need a National Comprehensive Vision and Deployment Strategy. We need stretch goals to overcome our severe Economic & Environmental crisis. Stretch goals will take people out of their comfort zone, but has a deeply researched deployable strategy designed to overcome crisis of gigantic proportions…. Competing for the Future: Hamel & Prahalad

A STATUS QUO GLOBAL ENERGY SNAPSHOT What is the Take Away from the last Few Slides? Because of the policies of the past, USA does not have a comprehensive E nergy Vision & Deployment Strategy that realistically tackle the looming E nvironment Disaster, while reviving the E conomy We cannot change the past, but we can certainly control our destiny, even at this late hour. We just need resolve as a nation to take on stretch goals. To start the process we adapted the model from the German Advisory Council for Global Change, who seem to have one of the most aggressive vision for a comprehensive energy initiative to tackle climate change. WE NEED TO RAPIDLY TRANSITION TOWARDS CLEAN SUSTAINABLE ENERGY. WHERE IS USA SEI COMPARED TO THE REST OF THE WORLD?

Twenty years from now instead of fighting over a dwindling resource like fossil based oil to generate our energy that increases our pollution levels to the point of no return for our planet, we generate more and more clean, sustainable energy because it actually helps clean up the environment while fueling our economic growth. inv VEST plans to transform this imagination into reality. Imagine a paradigm shift: We believe the 30 million student community in USA in high schools, colleges and universities can be GAME CHANGERS in the way we currently generate and use our energy and help in the rapid transition to clean sustainable energy initiatives. Here is How we Plan to do it:

OUR VISION: Enabling Massive Scale Sustainable Energy Initiatives will generate the next vibrant economy while protecting our planet for future generations to enjoy. Together, We can.
inv VEST Sole Purpose : to Enable Global Sustainable Energy Initiatives Leadership (SEI) for USA through Massive Scaling. We will lead by example.
The initiative needs significant investment of our mindshare, resources & time hence the name inv VEST.
We are investing in our future through a massive network of collaborative virtual teams, involving student communities and citizens as well as thought leaders and influencers, hence the name invVEST.
Massive Scaling supported by long term structured policies need to drive down prices of SEI below fossil fuel prices it replaces to create and “AND” not an “OR” situation.
Our goal is to create a Vibrant economy AND
A Clean Planet for our Future Generation.

The inv VEST team has identified three SEIs for massive scaling:
1. Break-Through Solar Energy Initiative:
5 GW installed in 2010 with structured but flexible policy & legislation for 12 years in place
PPI of <1 by 2015
20% of total US energy consumption by 2030
Ramp-up complementary SEI like Wind, Geo Thermal, Hydro, Clean Coal, Energy Storage & Transmission & related smart grid Infrastructure.
Ramp up electric energy usage to keep pace with Breakthrough SEI
2. Energy Efficiency and Conservation Initiative: USA consumes 54% more energy than a comparable OECD country. Reduce energy consumption per capita incrementally by 1% a year for 12 years for a total 12% reduction by 2020. 3 . Garner massive support from the students and citizens communities. Involve Students, Faculty & Admin of Schools, Colleges and Universities in a grassroots movement to change our behavior and knowledge on how we use energy by introducing relevant curriculum and activities around SEI. The mass movement will also be extended to include all citizens communities for their deep involvement. Other well defined ideas that hold the promise of meeting SEI definition will be given serious consideration.

Speicific Initatives for inv VEST SEI Initiative 3 Students & Citizens Community Groundswell in invVEST initiatives Will strongly influence Initiative 1 Breakthrough Solar Initiative Rooftop solar Initiative 2

The Outcome of successful inv VEST SEI Energy Usage shifts to SEI majority (65%)

Total energy needed globally is 100,000 times less than the amount of solar energy falling on earth. Solar Energy generates less than 0.05% of total global energy. If solar energy generates 25% of global energy, it needs to scale 10,000 times, creating a $3 Trillion Solar Energy Market. Focus on slicing the pie or make the pie exponentially bigger through massive scaling? Total energy need of the world Total energy from Sun falling on earth surface Total energy need of the world Current Solar Energy generated as % of total energy needs Initiative I: Solar Energy Opportunity Understanding the Exponential Size of the Pie

USA & Germany: A Perspective:
Land Area: USA has 26 times more land mass & 1,000 times free/arid land space.
Sun Radiance: SW corner of USA (5 times larger than Germany) has 40 - 60% more sun radiance.
USA GDP is 4 time more than Germany
Yet, USA installed a mere 340MW of Solar PV compared to Germany’s 1,800MW in 2008. USA should have deployed 8,000MW to be on par
What is wrong with this picture?
1 KW panel Produces 1530 kWh/yr 40 -70% more Germany Solar Energy I KW panel Produces 947kWh/yr Initiative I: Break Through Solar Initiative

Initiative I: Break Through Solar Initiative invVEST Breakthrough Solar Initiative 350GW 85GW Panel Prices BOS (Balance of Systems) Prices
Massive Scaling can generate by 2030:
A $ 2 Trillion Solar Energy Industry
Aggressively bring down SEI prices
Create 3 Million+ Jobs
Colorado can be one of the Hubs
Breakthrough Solar initiative will save Trillions of $ for USA over the next 50 years in energy prices & environment cleanup cost

Renewable Energy Initiatives What will Stretch Goals look like? A Global Perspective
The 20:20 Vision: What will it take for US to generate 20% of total energy or 21 Quadrillion Btu in 2020 from Non fossil based sources? CSF: Regain Leadership
Leverage & deploy every single source of renewable energy available
Fifteen Trillion $ global investment over the next 12 - 20 years?
The investment pales when you consider the world has to invest about 30 Trillion dollars in the next 20 years just to keep the fossil based oil production at the current levels (IEA: Wall Street report Nov 14 th 2008).
Emergence of Energy Economy driving jobs, innovation, rapid execution
Six Million New Energy Jobs by 2012, Twenty Million by 2020
The current economic crisis can be the biggest opportunity if a significant >30% of Govt. Funds are strongly linked to renewable energy initiative.
If we do not invest now we may lose the window of opportunity
The 50:50 VISION: What will it take for US to generate 50% of total energy or 60 QBtu in 2050? Rest of the World (RoW) to generate 40% of total energy or 240 QBtu in 2050? Maintain Leadership
Key: Revolutionary innovations in energy storage & efficiencies
How can we make Colorado a much more significant player?
Lead by Example

Taking on Global Leadership in New Energy Initiatives
Some Stretch Goals & Radical Thinking for Renewable Energy (RE):
Extreme Makeover: Energy Efficiency & Conservation Programs
Reduce Energy consumption per capita: 12% by 2012, create 1,000,000 plus jobs while doing so, identify quick hit programs with attractive ROI that can be deployed by 2009 -2010
Stretch Goals: USA generates 20% of energy needs from Wind and Solar by 2020?
Wind to generate 12% & solar to generate 8%
Start with signing up for 80% of Solar Panel Global Supply Demand Gap in 2009 (6 GW)
Suppliers can get profits with 85% capacity utilization with prices as low as $5/W for rooftops
80% or 4.8 GW goes on roof tops in 2009, creating 70,000 plus incremental jobs in 2009
Federal & States take up 3 GW, 1.8 GW to Residential and commercial
1.2 GW contracts for centralized, mainly from Thin Film, at $4.00/W
By 2015, the model flips: 80 % to Centralized, price target $1.75/W, creating 1.5M jobs
Like Germany, suppliers locate plants close to source, and Colorado, Arizona are ideal
Radical: As we generate more RE, ship coal to China & sell clean coal technologies

Renewable Energy Initiatives What do we do now?
Creating a Comprehensive Vision and Strategy for using every single source of renewable energy best suitable for USA.
Deeper dive to deploy each initiative and setting stretch goals for Colorado & USA to take our Renewable Energy Initiatives to the next level and become a globally recognized leader.
Colorado & USA already has many initiatives going
How can we make Colorado & USA a much more significant player?
NEXT STEPS…

OUR VISION: Enabling Massive Scale Sustainable Energy Initiatives will generate the next vibrant economy while protecting our planet for future generations to enjoy. Together , we can.

Five Framework Questions for Panelists
Size and current focus and what are your near term goals and long term vision?
Which technology holds the most promise & when will it break even and when to expect large scale production for the general consumer, what can consumers expect near term?
What are the key challenges, resource constraints, sustainability issues & the lifecycle carbon footprint for the 2 most promising technologies?
Where does USA stand in terms of innovation, market creation, manufacturing in terms of leadership? What needs to be done?
How can we make Colorado an even more prominent and relevant player in your area? What will be your priorities & stretch goals?

VSNI Renewable Energy Initiatives Where are we? A Global Perspective
Norway provides 98% of electricity through hydro electric power
Denmakr provides 30% of electricity through Wind Turbines mostly placed offshore.
France provides 75% of electricity through Nuclear Power
Germany, a sun-poor country, has the largest solar panel installations
Germany also has the largest wind farms with a 22,247MW installed capacity
Brazil generates 25% of its liquid fuel from sugarcane, production cost $25 per barrel
In North America, Canada provides 55% of electricity through hydro electric power
In the US, Washington State provides 20% of electricity through hydro electric power
In the US, Texas has the largest wind farms installed & doubling their capacity by 2010
OPEC and Russia control most of the known oil resources in the world
Russia has 27% of known natural gas in the world. Iran & Qatar controls 29%.
US has the largest reserve of Coal with 28%, providing a 200+ year supply.
With fossil Oil based energy resources running out in 40 -100 years, non fossil based renewable energy needs to be established for mankind to survive. The environment issue compounds the need.
Energy dependence & security volatilities & crisis will escalate exponentially

VSNI Renewable Energy Initiatives Where are we? A Global Perspective In 2005, Colorado consumed 1.43Quadrillion Btu/year or 1.4% of total US consumption China becomes the largest consumer of energy by 2020 Total CO 2 eq. emission Exceeded US in 2008. China will run out of coal & oil in less than 30 years

Imagine a Dinner Table Conversation in 2030…
Imagine sitting down for dinner with your teenage children or grandchildren 20 years down the road and having to explain why they cannot do any of the things that was common 20 years ago?
Simple things like, not driving to their friends place across town for a party because gasoline is rationed …
Having to wear heavy thermals indoors in winter because natural gas is too costly to heat the house…
Sweating it out in summer because air conditioners are banned as there are electricity blackouts ….
Why a lot of their older friends are being sent off to fight wars over Mid-east and other far off places…. or worse why do they have to go to so many of their friends funerals…
Why do they have to use oxygen masks every now and then. Why more and more of their friends seem to be developing acute breathing problems….
Why there are all too frequent hurricanes & tornadoes, tidal floods and ….. Global dimming
What ever happened to their country where everyone dared to dream to be whatever they wanted to be in the most vibrant country in the world….
All indications* point towards this scenario unless we come together to set & meet much more aggressive stretch goals to resolve this on coming Economic & Environment Tsunami.. NOW.
* While we can debate about concrete proof, how much warning did we have for the Asian Tsunami that caused 250,000+ deaths, Katrina, or the current Global Financial Crisis or 9-11? There is significantly more evidence and body of work by scientists, the world over, that we are heading towards an environmental calamity. The future of our very next generation is at stake.

Renewable Energy Initiatives Strategic Approach to Economically Sustainable Renewable Energy Choices If solar performance & efficiencies track Moore’s Law for computing price performance, Solar installed cost and $/KWH will drop much more dramatically than this scenario. Will need exponential improvements in networked storage, smart grid technologies. Radical /Revolutionary Technology needed

Renewable Energy Initiatives Strategic Approach to Economically Sustainable Renewable Energy Choices Solar CSF: Replicating Moore's Law for Cost, Exponential improvement in storage & smart grid Algae CSF: GMO for exponential increase in yield & extraction efficiencies, economies of scale for bioreactors

GLOBAL ELECTRICITY USAGE USA, OECD Europe & China consumed 54% of global electricity produced Electricity constitutes 40% of Global Energy Consumption A Strong Case for Energy Efficiency & Conservation Programs USA consumes 53% more Electricity than OECD Europe Which has 25% more population and 15% more GDP Can we have quick wins with Energy Efficiency & Conservation? We can quickly ramp up 1,000,000 plus jobs, with attractive ROI
