1) 84% of commercial energy in the US is wasted due to inefficiency. Common sources of waste include outdated light bulbs, cars, power plants, and lack of insulation.
2) The document outlines many ways to conserve energy, such as installing more efficient appliances, vehicles, lighting and improving building insulation. It also advocates transitioning to renewable sources like solar, wind and geothermal.
3) Widespread adoption of energy efficient technologies and renewable energy could significantly reduce US dependence on foreign oil while cutting pollution and creating new jobs. However, entrenched fossil fuel interests present barriers to transitioning away from wasteful practices.
Green hydrogen
Green hydrogen production is expanding globally, with over 60 gigawatts of projects planned representing billions of dollars of investment. While only about half of current projects may become operational within 15 years, many countries are investing heavily to accelerate green hydrogen's potential. Notable projects include a $10.5 billion Spanish initiative to produce 4 gigawatts of electrolyzers, a $5 billion Saudi Arabia-US plant to produce 650 tons of hydrogen daily, and a $16 billion Australian renewable energy farm partly dedicated to hydrogen. The growth of green hydrogen production capacity could help power transportation and other sectors sustainably.
Stem oil and natural gas
Petroleum and natural gas are useful energy resources. Petroleum, also called crude oil, is a liquid consisting of organic compounds that can range from simple to complex. Natural gas primarily consists of the single organic compound methane. Both petroleum and natural gas are found in sedimentary rock pores and are formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals subjected to heat and pressure over time. They are valuable because they have a high energy content, can be transported and refined easily, and are used to produce many useful materials.
Fuels used in kitchen
Fuels are essential in the kitchen to generate heat for cooking. The main fuels used are solid fuels like wood and charcoal, liquid fuels like LPG, and electricity. Each fuel has its advantages - LPG allows for controlled cooking and is easy to use, while electricity enables precise temperature regulation. However, fuels also have disadvantages, such as the pollution from wood or difficulty maintaining gas supply. A chef must understand the characteristics of different fuels to select the best option for the intended cooking needs.
Conventional energy sources
The three major conventional energy sources are petroleum, natural gas, and coal. Together they provide about 85% of the country's energy and almost two-thirds of electrical power. While widely used for decades, efforts are made to reduce their environmental impact. These non-renewable resources will be depleted if consumption continues at projected rates.

Modern management of waste around the world has moved from waste disposal to energy recovery through WtE. Technologies that can be utilized to recover energy from MSW via thermal conversion processes such as incineration, gasification, pyrolysis, biochemical conversion processes and chemical conversion. The aim of this research was to evaluate the heating (calorific) value of municipal wet solid waste from Kabagarame dumping site in Bushenyi District, Uganda. Wet solid waste samples were analyzed, the heating value of the wastes were evaluated. The results showed that other organics had the highest calorific value of 26.22 MJ/kg, followed by paper 16.60 MJ/kg, followed by food waste 16.51MJ/kg and then wood 16.14 MJ/kg on dry matter basis. The results on the heating value on wet basis showed that other organics had the highest calorific value of 12.82 MJ/kg, followed by paper 14.04 MJ/kg, followed by food waste 13.66 MJ/kg and then wood 9.89 MJ/kg. The heating value of plastics was not obtained since they are recovered from the dumping site and recycled. This energy can be harnessed by different production facilities particularly Tea factories in the region through incineration process so as to generate heat necessary for their production processes. In conclusion, results from this research also suggest that understanding the composition of municipal solid waste is essential for creating the best disposal strategy, so that recovering resources trapped in the wastes can be optimized. It is therefore necessary that energy derived from municipal solid wastes can be taken into account in the national energy budget.
Keywords: Heating value, solid waste, Kabagarame and dumping site.

Uganda investment forum_-_natural_resources_-_keith_winning_-_cbi
Keith Winning presented on how to use GIS and remote sensing data to select pipeline routes that minimize environmental impacts from soil erosion. GIS can predict erosion risk by analyzing slope, rainfall, soil type, and vegetation cover data to calculate erosion rates along potential routes. Selecting routes with lower erosion risk can reduce construction and maintenance costs while limiting environmental effects like sedimentation in waterways.

- 1. Uganda Investment Forum 11-12 April 2013, Kampala, Uganda Project Profiles PROJECT PROFILES Sector Energy Geographical Location Wakiso District, Balita, Kiwenda Responsible Agent(s) Dr. Emmy Wasirwa Project Description & Rationale / Objectives Project Size This project has developed an array of technologies to produce clean-burning cooking gas from agricultural waste materials at a lower cost than current methods. Converting agricultural residues to cooking gas leads to a significant reduction in airborne particulates, and thus to improved respiratory health. This agro-gas does not contribute to deforestation and is more affordable than conventional wood charcoal. Moreover, local jobs and micro-enterprises will be created, further increasing incomes and consequently improving health. This project will train at least 1000 agro-waste, with a goal of achieving a production rate of 100MT (metric tons). By the end of two years, more than 10,000 families are expected to be using the waste and producers’ incomes will increase by US$500. Since the process can use a variety of agricultural waste materials it can adapt to suit diverse local conditions and is thus easily replicable. The project has nine staff in total Proposed Procurement Process Materials are locally accessible and we shall use locals to separate the stuff for making gas Planned Start Date The plant is hoped to commence maximum work by 15th April 2013 Project Documentation The project is well documents and the information can be accessed from out office Current Status So far the site is cleared and awaiting the final plant which shall enable us to commence the preparation of Cooking gas So far invested 890,000,000 and now seeking 100,000,000 as working capital Financing Amount & Structure Required Contact Person Dr. Emmy Wasirwa 0701704397
