World Energy Council: Tracking Energy Transition Innovation- 2017Energy for One World
World Energy Council report- on innovation, year 2017
Views are by the Council, and not necessarily the views of the EFOW practice: how to drive change - and what deserves our time, organisation and investments.
The document discusses energy transitions on a global scale. It defines energy transitions as shifts from one dominant energy source to another that typically take decades to occur across countries. While governments are driving transitions to meet climate goals, there is no single global transition but rather many national transitions due to differing resources and goals. Key challenges of transitions include reducing fossil fuel use, increasing renewable electricity and electrifying other sectors like transport and industry in a cost-effective way while ensuring grid reliability. Opportunities exist for distributed renewable resources and new digital technologies to empower individual citizens and communities in transitions.
The document provides information about Hydro-Québec, a Canadian producer of clean renewable hydroelectric energy. It states that Hydro-Québec generates energy that produces 40 times less carbon dioxide than natural gas plants and 100 times less than coal plants. As the largest producer of renewable energy in North America, Hydro-Québec is proud to host the 2010 World Energy Congress in Montreal. The publication was produced to mark the 21st World Energy Congress.

Por Sir Christopher Llewellyn Smith, Director de Investigación Energética en la Universidad de Oxford y Ex director general del CERN.
This document provides an overview of global developments in energy and sustainability from 2015-2017. Some key points covered include the Paris Climate Agreement in 2015, progress and challenges in implementing the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, and shifts in energy markets and technologies driven by climate policies, renewable energy growth, and other factors. It discusses perspectives from organizations like the IEA, UN, and others on trajectories for renewable energy adoption and decarbonization. The document frames 2018 and beyond as an opportunity to further scale up efforts across sectors and levels to accelerate the transition to a more sustainable energy and economic system globally.
The World Economic Forum aims to improve the world through collaborative partnerships between industry leaders. It consists of communities committed to shaping the global, regional, and industry agenda. The Forum runs various projects and initiatives related to specific industries, and engages leaders through meetings, councils, and communities. One current project is SlimCity, which focuses on developing sustainable cities and aims to establish a vision for smart grids, sustainable buildings, and urban mobility.
This document discusses green energy and decoupling economic growth from energy consumption and carbon emissions. It finds that historically economic growth has correlated with increased energy use. Decoupling aims to continue economic development without a corresponding rise in environmental impact. The limits and challenges of decarbonization include the high costs of technologies like carbon capture and storage, nuclear power, and ensuring a just transition that does not negatively impact industries and workers. Overall decoupling economic growth from energy use and decarbonizing will be difficult but necessary for environmental sustainability.

- Proponents of coal energy argue that clean coal technologies should receive the same government incentives as other low-carbon energy sources to help limit global warming. However, coal currently has a very negative public perception that makes it difficult to obtain government support.
- Upgrading the efficiency of existing coal plants and installing carbon capture and storage (CCS) systems on new plants could significantly reduce global CO2 emissions. However, CCS is currently not economically viable without much higher carbon prices or more government support.
- While renewable energy is increasingly important, coal will still be needed to ensure reliable electricity supply given its intermittent nature. Modernized coal plants with CCS could work together with renewables to provide flexible power generation and meet

PLENARY SESSION: Facing the societal challenges of our time
This document discusses types of resources, problems with non-renewable energy, and methods to reduce pollution and conserve resources. It defines renewable and non-renewable resources and examines fossil fuels, pollution, acid rain, and global warming. Suggested solutions include using alternative energy sources, reducing pollution emissions, improving energy efficiency, and recycling resources.
This document outlines the key aspects of climate change, including its causes and effects. It explains that climate change is being driven by human activities that release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide into the atmosphere from sources such as burning fossil fuels, agriculture, and manufacturing. This is trapping heat and causing the planet to warm up. The rising temperatures are already affecting the environment through melting glaciers, rising sea levels, shifting plant and animal ranges, and more frequent extreme weather. The document discusses efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through renewable energy, electric vehicles, and international agreements, but notes more action is still needed globally to avoid serious consequences of climate change like mass species extinctions and crop failures.
This document outlines the key aspects of climate change, including its causes and effects. It explains that climate change is being driven by human activities that release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide into the atmosphere from sources such as burning fossil fuels, agriculture, and manufacturing. This is trapping heat and increasing global temperatures, causing environmental changes such as rising sea levels, stronger storms, and species endangerment. The document discusses efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through renewable energy and electric vehicles, but notes more action is needed globally to avoid severe consequences of climate change like mass extinction and loss of ecosystems.
This document discusses alternatives to addressing climate change through production changes rather than climate policies. It argues that new technologies are enabling abundance in areas like water, food, education and healthcare. Renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydro are growing exponentially and could power countries completely. Transitioning to renewable energy and implementing a carbon fee dividend could provide a just transition to a clean future with education and jobs. The document promotes embracing efficient solutions that bridge ecology and economy.
The document discusses how renewable energy is disrupting traditional large energy firms. It describes how the costs of renewables like solar and wind have declined significantly, allowing them to compete with and even beat fossil fuels on price in some areas. This is reducing profits for large utilities that rely on fossil fuels. Additionally, hundreds of thousands of households and businesses have invested in small-scale renewable systems, creating a decentralized "people's army" that is challenging the dominance of large energy companies. As a result, the large utilities, once comfortable monopolies, are now under threat and on the run as the energy system transforms dramatically around them due to the rise of renewables.
The document discusses the increasing dependence on computer technology and its future applications and impacts. It predicts that technology will continue penetrating more areas of life like communication, education, business, and relationships. While acknowledging benefits, it expresses concern that over-reliance on technology for communication could undermine people's ability to communicate face-to-face, which is important for humanity. The document concludes that while the growth of technology is inevitable, its impacts may not be entirely positive.
Positive Energy Buildings - Professional Development Course for EngineersMarianneSalama
This document provides an overview of energy efficient buildings and their role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and fighting climate change. It discusses how buildings account for about one-third of global energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. In Canada and Quebec, buildings consume around 30% of energy. The document then discusses climate change impacts from increased greenhouse gas levels and how energy efficient buildings could help reduce emissions in Quebec where most electricity comes from renewable sources. It questions if efficient buildings could help speed up electrification of transportation in the province.

Solomon Northup's memoir Twelve Years a Slave provides vivid details about the cruel treatment of slaves in the 1800s. Northup recounts his experience of being kidnapped and sold into slavery for 12 years, during which he endured physical and emotional abuse from three different masters in the South. The memoir gives readers a deeper understanding of the harsh realities of slavery by documenting Northup's transition from a free man to a slave, and ultimately regaining his freedom.
This document discusses six key trends in Western Europe: 1) Continuing optimism despite economic crises, with companies focusing on culture and communities. 2) Growing austerity and frugality as lavish consumption declines. 3) Embracing imperfection over perfection. 4) Increasing urbanization as cities offer opportunities. 5) Addressing climate change through weather prediction and dealing with effects. 6) Sustained luxury market through technology and temporary pop-up stores.
The document discusses a student project called "Our Common Future" that aims to raise awareness about environmental sustainability and climate change among youth. It describes plans to have five schools from different European countries participate in short-term exchanges to learn about topics like renewable energy and reducing waste. Students will also engage in local activities such as calculating their schools' carbon footprints and organizing recycling campaigns. The overall goal is for students to understand the importance of environmental protection and view themselves as part of the ecosystem through hands-on learning experiences.

1) The document discusses different units used to measure energy production, transformation, distribution and uses such as volume, weight, heat, and power.
2) It explains the differences between energy resources and stocks, with resources like wind and solar being indefinitely renewable, while stocks like coal and uranium are finite. As of 2008, proven fossil fuel stocks could last around 48 more years at the current consumption rate.
3) Capturing and storing carbon emitted from fossil fuel usage is a major technological challenge that could significantly increase the costs of electricity generation from coal.
This document discusses the concept of "smart cities" and focuses on smart utilities. It notes that sensors are increasingly being used to collect data from utilities like water and transportation networks. When these sensors are connected through various protocols and their data analyzed, it enables utilities to become smarter. This could transform the utility network and redefine the roles of both utilities and end-customers to allow for more choice, management, and optimization of resources and assets. However, issues around data sharing, value creation, and ensuring inclusiveness need to be addressed for smart utilities to achieve their full potential.

There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

A Visual Guide to 1 Samuel | A Tale of Two HeartsSteve Thomason
These slides walk through the story of 1 Samuel. Samuel is the last judge of Israel. The people reject God and want a king. Saul is anointed as the first king, but he is not a good king. David, the shepherd boy is anointed and Saul is envious of him. David shows honor while Saul continues to self destruct.
THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Consumption
A chinese has a yearly consumption of 1 Ton of oil
equivalent (toe) while european need 4 and an American 8.
The USA weight 5% of the world’s population but consume
25% of the total energy
16. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 16
Energy access
In the world, about 2 billion people have no
access to modern energy
With no access to energy, wood is the only way
to cook and heat => impact on deforestation
Decentralized systems are a good way to solve
environmental problems and enable
development
With electricity => television, fridge, telephone,
pumps, etc.

Le cote obscure…
Il existe des points negatifs et de debats
autour des questions d’energie
Pourriez-vous citer des points
de debats et dire pourquoi?
19. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 19
La production d’energie a des effects negatifs, des
limites et alimente des critiques et des oppositions
= le cote obscure de l’energie
• Car ce sont des ressources fossiles
• Certaines energies ne sont pas
disponibles tout le temps
• Car cela provoque des emissions
polluantes, visibles et invisibles
• Car cela presente des risques
• Car cela diffuse des polluants
• Car cela conduit a etre dependant de
certains pays (guerre?)
• Car cela conduit a faire travailler des gens
dans des conditions difficiles (mines)
20. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 20
Environmental risks
Maree noire, accidents
Piper Alpha, Amocco, BP
23. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 23
Pollution atmospherique
• Smog in London (1952)
• Temperature + hiver + charbon = smog
• Impact sur la sante (enfants, personnes agees)
D’autres pollutions causent de l’asthme
24. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 24
Gaspillage? Efficacite energetique ? Attitudes ?
• Autos
• Appareils en veille
• Non sens?
Les appareils en veille augmentent la facture d’électricité de 10%
C’est beau … mais a quel prix ?
25. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 25
Exemple d’une utilisation intensive d’energie.
A vous de juger …
26. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 26
Renewables is great, but ...
Public acceptance + transport issues
Renewable ? Transport is key = How to manage the network ?
Need for many new wind farms. Land use ?
Need for robust grid = acceptance of new aerial networks
27. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 27

On prend 5 minutes pour preparer ses arguments.
On presente ses arguments
L’autre groupe pose des questions.
On interverti les roles
Groupe 1: va trouver des arguments pour expliquer pourquoi il
est important de developper plus de sources d’energie,
explorer plus de petrole, des gaz de schiste, du nucleaire, etc.
Pour le progres de l’humanite.
Groupe 2: va trouver des arguments pour expliquer pourquoi il
vaut mieux tout faire pour limiter nos besoins, comment faire
des economies et se passer de choses plus ou moins
indispensables.

Facts: energy and the city
By 2030, 60% of the world’s
population will live in urban areas
(49% in 2007)
Architecture & planning have big
impact. 2 similar cities can have
different energy needs. 2.5 million
people and … :
Atlanta : 4300 KM² and 7.5 T
CO2/hab/year
Barcelona : 162 KM² and 0.7 T
CO2/hab/year
Energy price raise will impact people
localisation, lifestyle and city planning
33. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 33
What scenario ?
Clear rules versus uncertainty
Uncertainty
Technological
Policies
Economy
Demography
Finance
A need for
FLEXIBILITY
In the long term;
scenarios should allow
flexibility, not closing
any door, able to
adapt and cope with
various technologies
and emerging usages
(electric vehicle,
energy stotrage, shale
gas, etc.)
34. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 34
Towards energy in 2050
Recommandations ?
Both sides : supply and demand
Focus on sober homes and sober industries
Empower energy efficiency
Anticipate impacts of any policy or economic
initiative on jobs, CO2 emissions, investment
capabilities, balance of trade
Need for costs and prices transparency
Work at continent level (Europe)
Establish world standards for nuclear safety
Keep the doors open and keep an eye on any
trends and technologies. Meanwhile use current
technologies to remain nimble flexible to face
demand.

L’energie est precieuse, comme un cadeau …
et de plus en plus
Citez trois raisons pour lesquelles il faudra etre attentif a l’utilisation
de l’energie dans le futur, avant que cela ne devienne un vrai luxe
36. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 36
Energy needs are growing and energy is a lever to develop the economy
… but don’t forget :
In the world, about 2 billion people have no access to moderne
energy
At least 70% of humanity lives on less than $10 a day
Nearly a billion people entered the 21st century unable to read a
book or sign their names.
Approximately half the world’s population now live in cities and
towns. In 2005, approximately 1 billion people was living in slum
conditions.

Global trends
Rising energy needs, worldwide
Growth in emerging countries
Predominent marketshare for fossile energy in the long term
Booming market for unconventional energsources
Saddly, still millions of people with no access to energy
42. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 42
Heating: from the ages, to head, to cook and for industrial
processes
Lighting: with huge technological evolution from gas to
electricity
Power: for transportation and industrial processes as well
Raw material: some resource are used directly (gas, oil,
coke)
Electricity for appliances, devices and motors in our
environment (at home, at work, etc.)

Quels sont nos usages de l’energie?
43. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 43
Energy and Industry sector
Less than 1/3 of final energy needs
Energy intensive industries : heavy
industry (coal, steel, chemical, cement)
Goegraphical issues (relatively to energy
cost all around the world)
Energy efficiency could lead to savings up
to 20% in Europe
44. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 44
About energy mix
(examples)
75% of energy in South Africa comes from coal
(idem in China)
90% of energy in Algeria come from internal gas
resource
45% of hydraulic & biomass in Brazil
35% energy come from imported oil in Italy
=> Impact on CO2 emissions and energy
independance (+geostrategy issues as well)
45. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 45
Energy & the buildings
In France, 46% of final demand come from the
buildings
69% for heating
19% for hot water
12% for electricity
Key issues for the future
Insulation
Home automation, regulation
Energy efficiency
Eco materials
46. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 46
Jobs, national economies
and competitiveness
Need to build strong industries
Green and energy jobs
Don't rely just on the internal market
Don't rely on subsidies
Need for some clarity on national policies (IE Feed
In tarifs, etc.)
Manage transition and change = training,
educational system, etc.
Think globally, energy is already to be managed at
continental level, not just national.
A need for transparency
Real energy prices
Give customers a fair and true signal = energy is
not cheep
47. Guillaume Fery – June 2013 – London 47
