Nuclear Energy: The Future Of Electricity
Population growth is expected to increase energy demand significantly in the coming decades. Nuclear energy is a promising alternative to fossil fuels as it produces no greenhouse gases or air pollution and has relatively low costs per kilowatt hour compared to other energy sources. While safety is a concern, modern nuclear plants have stringent regulations and automated safety systems, as well as extensively trained personnel, making them among the safest industrial facilities in the world. The document argues that nuclear power may be the only viable clean and inexpensive solution to meet growing global energy needs.
Harnessing The Wind
The document discusses wind energy and its history, viability for personal use, current state in Michigan, and challenges of offshore wind power. It explores wind energy potential based on location, size of property, and electricity costs. Charts show growing installed wind capacity and proposed projects in Michigan, which ranks 4th nationally in wind turbine production. Offshore wind faces technological and economic hurdles but benefits from larger turbine sizes.
Renewable energy and sustainable development
The document discusses sustainable development and renewable energy. It notes that as energy consumption from fossil fuels increases, global environmental problems become inevitable. Both developed and developing countries are working to establish sustainable energy systems that improve human, economic, social and environmental conditions. There are challenges to long-term sustainability, including demographic, social and economic trends. The document recommends vigorous action in areas like energy diversity and efficiency, supply reliability, technological innovation, and regional integration of energy systems. Government policies must carefully manage production, transportation and usage of energy resources while protecting the climate and reducing pollution.

Problem with the Increase of Electric Consumption
This document summarizes energy consumption in the Philippines across different sectors. It finds that while total energy consumption is low compared to other Asian countries, electricity is the most commonly used energy source for residential households. Industrial and commercial sectors favor different sources, with 53,889.59 kilo Tons of oil equivalent consumed by over 143,000 establishments in 2010. The document also provides five tips for reducing energy consumption, such as using LED bulbs, shutting down computers instead of screensavers, eliminating vampire power from idle electronics, using power strips, and turning off lights.
2009 Wind Industry Highlights Usa
The American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) identified the industry’s top accomplishments and developments in 2009.
Wind Energy
The document discusses the benefits and potential of wind energy in the United States, using New York as a case study. It outlines New York's plans to increase renewable energy through offshore wind farms, wind turbines on skyscrapers, and other renewable sources. Specifically, it proposes that New York shift 39% of its energy supply from coal and nuclear to renewable sources through energy efficiency, developing its biomass, hydro, solar, and wind resources, and producing energy locally without new coal or nuclear plants. Harnessing a small fraction of available wind power could meet national electricity demand many times over.
Policy project
This document discusses ways to reduce carbon emissions through low carbon technologies. It identifies transportation and power plants as major sources of greenhouse gas emissions and proposes solutions like electric vehicles, hydroelectricity, wind turbines and solar panels. The UK government policy aims for all cars and vans to be zero emissions by 2050, and over 20,000 ultra-low emission vehicles were sold in the UK in the first nine months of the year. The US has also increased renewable energy from wind, which was the fastest growing new energy source in 2008.
Sustainability conference at St Thomas Aquinas 2 4-16
The document discusses energy generation and usage in the United States. It states that in 2014, the US generated about 4,093 billion kilowatt hours of electricity, with fossil fuels (coal, natural gas, and petroleum) accounting for about 67% of generation. Coal specifically accounted for 39% of electricity generation while natural gas was 27% and nuclear was 19%. The document then discusses various strategies and their potential contributions to meeting the projected increase in global energy demand to 30 terawatts by 2050.
Interest
This document discusses several topics related to renewable energy and climate change:
1) It describes solar energy's potential applications for electricity, heating, and transport but notes its high initial costs have limited widespread adoption.
2) It discusses the World Bank's focus on building climate-resilient cities, climate-smart agriculture, accelerating energy efficiency and renewable energy, ending fossil fuel subsidies, and carbon pricing.
3) It notes that from 2010 to 2013, the amount of solar panels installed in the US increased over 485% and by 2014 the US had over 480,000 solar energy systems installed totaling over 13,400 megawatts.
Grassroots
Central Electric Power Cooperative generates electricity from various resources including hydro, coal, wind, and gas. Coal is their most expensive resource at $55.48 per MWh while hydro is their cheapest at $30.60 per MWh. EPA regulations cost the power sector $140 billion annually according to a Power Magazine article. Global CO2 emissions are rising with developing countries like China and India doubling their emissions, which will make US power plant emissions virtually irrelevant as a percentage of the global total within 12 years. Estimates suggest that reducing CO2 from the US electric sector could double electricity rates with almost no impact on global CO2 levels.

The WestWave project is an important part of Ireland's ocean energy development roadmap and aims to have the first wave array operational in Ireland by 2018.
Energy generation through animal power
To meet this surging demand, animal power for electricity generation is the best option to fulfill the energy needs of India and bridge the energy demand-supply gap.
David Kaner, Advanced Anaerobics
The document discusses whether anaerobic digestion (AD) facilities should be installed on every farm in the UK. It notes there are over 400,000 farming enterprises but only around 40,000 are large enough to support an AD plant. Currently fewer than 200 farms have AD, but the goal is to increase that to 10,000 farms by 2020. A panel discussion was held on the topic, chaired by Michael Cheshire from Evergreen Gas, with representatives from the Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association, Forum for the Future, Advanced Anaerobics, JF Temple & Son farm, and Energy Now.
Energy revolution - your guide to repowering the energy system - Howard Johns
Presentation that accompanies the book by the same name.
This is what is written about the book: "Reimagining our energy system offers the potential of a win-win-win future: low carbon energy, more resilient communities, vibrant local economies. What's more, it's possible and it's already happening. In these pages, Howard Johns paints a spellbinding picture of the revolution happening around us, and the part you could play in it." Rob Hopkins, founder of the Transition movement. Telling stories of the change that's already happening from around the world and drawing on two decades of his own unique experience, Howard Johns demonstrates how we can develop our own renewable energy projects to provide local energy and create a new fleet of businesses. He shows us how communities can build local energy solutions (renewable power stations that will be a new form of building society) where we come together to develop, finance and construct the infrastructure that we and future generations so desperately need. He explains how to design, set up and fund community energy systems, citing examples from countries that have already cut the amount of energy they use and supplied their needs from renewable energy. These new systems will create new jobs and businesses, reduce energy imports and create new local investment models. This handbook contains the map we need to change the system from the bottom up and make the next great leap forward to achieving clean, affordable energy. Covering everything needed to structure your community power company, the technology, site assessment, legal and business planning, fundraising and financial modeling, putting people at the heart of your strategy. It's time to take control, relocalise, reduce costs and carbon emissions, and join the energy revolution.

Global renewable energy capacity has grown significantly, with China now the global leader in installed capacity of all types. Solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity has seen the biggest growth rate, doubling to over 200 GW globally since 2013 due to massive investment, particularly from China. China has become the dominant player in the global PV industry, producing over 80% of global solar cells while also growing its domestic PV installations the fastest of any country. The commercial success of PV is largely attributed to the combination of supportive European policies and China's low-cost mass production capabilities.
Lane Crockett - slides - clean energy forum June 2011
The document discusses various factors related to investing in renewable energy such as reasonable return on equity, reliable revenue streams, and confidence in plant output and costs. It notes that renewable energy provides benefits like being a sound financial investment and having zero greenhouse gas emissions. It also states that investor sentiment around renewable energy is improving and that major investors like banks and super funds are showing interest. Costs of different renewable technologies like wind and solar are discussed.
Rebecca Ford “Prosumer Energy Culture and a Fractal Like Grid.”
This document discusses the concept of a "prosumer energy culture" and a fractal-like grid. It notes that households are increasingly producing their own energy through technologies like solar panels. This is shifting energy profiles and creating constraints on the traditional grid. A fractal grid that recognizes consumer values like independence, control and sustainability could help alleviate these issues through approaches like localized peer-to-peer energy sharing and collective prosumerism. It would incentivize distributed energy investment, increase resilience and allow greater utilization of renewable resources.
Electricity generation infrastructure planning in the Age of Climate Change
Carbon emissions from electric power generation are skyrocketing, including and especially in countries that have received praise for their support of renewable energy.
Meanwhile, countries with very low carbon emissions from power generation are generally ignored in policy circles and in the media. But, as energy and environment expert Steve Aplin demonstrates, these low-carbon countries have achieved spectacular environmental success without hurting their economies.
Aplin argues that these low-carbon countries should be the model for all developing countries that are expanding their power generation infrastructure.

HAYNES_Offshore Wind Manual Edition_2
The offshore wind industry has grown significantly since the first offshore wind farm was installed off the coast of Denmark in 1991. The UK has become a global leader in offshore wind, driven by its large offshore wind resources and supportive policies. The UK's Round 3 licensing round in 2008 opened up the potential for 33GW of offshore wind capacity, which could power one third of the country's electricity demand. This attracted major investments from global wind turbine manufacturers and energy companies and accelerated the growth of the offshore wind industry. However, the global financial crisis and changes to UK renewable energy policies also led to more challenging times for some projects and companies.

Social Cognitive Theory
The document discusses social cognitive theory and observational learning. It describes how social cognitive theory expanded on behaviorism by recognizing the role of cognitive and social factors in learning. A key aspect is observational learning, where learning occurs through observing and modeling the behaviors of others. Observational learning involves paying attention, retaining information, being able to reproduce behaviors, and being motivated to do so. Factors like perceived similarity and competence influence which models are paid attention to.
Socio-cultural Development - Vygotsky
The document discusses Lev Vygotsky's socio-cultural theory of development. It explains that Vygotsky believed cognitive development occurs through social interactions and is mediated by language and culture. A key concept is the Zone of Proximal Development, which is the difference between what a child can do independently and what they can do with guidance and is the area where maximum learning occurs. Scaffolding from adults and peers helps children learn new skills within their ZPD."
Designing a course role play
The document describes a graduate certificate course in gender mainstreaming policy and analysis that was designed to address challenges in leveraging student diversity, applying theories to real world scenarios, and collaboration. The solution involved integrating student cohorts, a scaffolded learning pathway, critical reflections, role play, team-based tasks, and authentic assessment. The role play placed students in the fictional International Development Organization (IDO) and used organizational frameworks, memos, and online tools to create an immersive experience and encourage collaboration. Student evaluations found the course applied learning to real jobs and one student was already applying the knowledge gained. The teaching team received several awards for their commitment to gender equity and partnership.

Wind Energy in Australia
- 1. Clean energy update no.2: windenergy wind energy – generating serious power visit cleanenergycouncil.org.au Currently wind energy generates enough power for around 1 million households or roughly 1 in 8 households in australia Nearly four out of five people surveyed across Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales support wind farms – including many people from regions containing wind farms. Wind energy jobs and investment in Australia Current Potential Investment Jobs 1345 2000 Australia has A modern wind turbine is capable of powering up to Turbines Homes $17.8 Billion 10,000 $4.25 Billion 1700 CEC_WIND_FACTSv11 27/8/12 11:47 AM Page 1
- 2. Investment and jobs A recent study found a typical 50 megawatt wind farm (capable of powering up to 21,000 homes) is constructed by workers who spend up to $1.2 million locally, and contributes up to $80,000 annually to community projects. The study found such a wind farm creates up to 48 direct jobs during construction, and then employs around five ongoing permanent staff. Further, it found wind farms generate significant extra funds for local suppliers, contractors, shopkeepers, community facilities and more, with up to seven extra ongoing jobs created locally as a flow-on effect of having a 50 megawatt wind farm nearby. A total of $4.25 billion has been invested in Australia as a result of wind power projects. Based on current planned projects, the potential for another $17.8 billion investment exists. Benefits for farmers Wind farming can help farmers generate vital extra income, make better use of marginal farming land, and insure against market downturns. In some cases, this can mean the difference between staying on the land and having to sell up. Strong community support A recent survey by independent researcher QDos showed nearly 80 per cent of those surveyed across Victoria, New South Wales and South Australia (including regional areas containing wind farms) supported the development of wind farms. Large-scale renewable energy like wind power is the lowest-cost way to meet Australia’s target of sourcing 20 per cent of our energy from renewable sources by 2020. Contrary to some recent claims, wind and other large-scale renewable energy sources contribute only a tiny amount to the average power bill – just two per cent compared to the massive 40 per cent that goes towards upgrading the power network. Wind turbine noise Australian wind farms face some of the toughest guidelines in the world in relation to their permissible noise levels. A study by independent noise consultant Sonus shows that one of the biggest sources of infrasound is the ocean – yet there are no reports of the hundreds of thousands of coast- dwelling Australians suffering ill health from infrasound. Health There are nearly 200,000 wind turbines across sites all over the world – many of them close to people’s houses. More than a dozen peer-reviewed expert studies have been completed on wind farms and none has shown a direct link between them and ill health. Back up generation Energy created by wind turbines is just one of a range of energy types feeding into our power system to provide us with electricity. Demand and supply of energy fluctuates all the time and the energy network is designed to cope with this. It needs back-up power for a range of reasons including demand spikes and power station failure. No back-up power station has been built just to support wind. Real estate prices Many locations near wind farms have seen property prices increase significantly over the last few years, such as Cape Bridgewater and Port Fairy in south-west Victoria. A study by the NSW Department of Lands in the second half of 2009 looked at properties near eight wind farms and found no evidence that wind turbines caused property values to drop. visit cleanenergycouncil.org.au The lowest-cost way to meet Australia’s Renewable Energy Target CEC_WIND_FACTSv11 27/8/12 11:48 AM Page 2
