This document discusses renewable energy sources and their potential to meet future UK energy demands. It notes that fossil fuels are finite and may not be sustainable long-term. Renewable sources like solar, wind, hydro, and biomass are sustainable as they are replenished naturally. The UK aims to generate 10% of electricity from renewables by 2010 and 20% by 2020. Onshore and offshore windfarms as well as biomass are expected to be the main contributors to meeting these targets. Challenges remain to achieving the 2010 target, but policies like the Climate Change Levy and Renewables Obligation aim to establish renewables in the UK's energy mix.

The electricity generation, methods of producing power and the demand of electricity is listed in the presentation. By Adithya Construction, Chennnai http://www.adithyaconstruction.co.in/
Renewable energy is generally defined as energy that comes from resources which are naturally replenished on a human timescale, such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves, and geothermal heat.[2] Renewable energy replaces conventional fuels in four distinct areas: electricity generation, air and water heating/cooling, motor fuels, and rural (off-grid) energy services.
Based on REN21's 2014 report, renewables contributed 19 percent to our global energy consumption and 22 percent to our electricity generation in 2012 and 2013, respectively. This energy consumption is divided as 9% coming from traditional biomass, 4.2% as heat energy (non-biomass), 3.8% hydro electricity and 2% is electricity from wind, solar, geothermal, and biomass. Worldwide investments in renewable technologies amounted to more than US$214 billion in 2013, with countries like China and the United States heavily investing in wind, hydro, solar and biofuels.
It is just a name for utilizing fast-growing trees, sugar cane, crop residue etc. for use in small power generation schemes. cogeneration using bagasse, power from biomass as fuel and biomass gasifier systems are together classified as dendro power.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

2. Specific Questions
• What are the current and projected UK
energy (fuel + electricity) demands?
• How is the demand for electricity currently
being generated? In the future?
• What contribution can renewable energy
make to future fuel and electricity needs?
5. Present Energy
Resources
• Fossil fuels - coal, oil, gas are all of limited
amounts. Cant be replaced.
• Nuclear fuels -limited amounts of uranium for
nuclear fission reactors but reprocessing of
fuel possible.
• Difficult to estimate how long these fuels will
last - but is it sustainable economically or
environmentally?
6. How much energy is
needed?
• DTI Energy Statistics for 2000
• 308,332 GWh of electricity was distributed to 29.068 million
consumers.
– i.e. on average, each consumer used 10, 607 kwh of
electricity.
• In 2000, the total energy consumed in the domestic sector
of the UK was 46,833 thousands tons of oil equivalent.
• Dividing this value by the number of consumers and
converting to kwh gives the average amount of energy used
per household as 18,737 kwh.
7. Sustainable situation
• Renewable energy resources are being
replaced / generated at the same rate that
they are being utilised.
• Hence they will last indefinitely.
8. Renewable Energy
•
•
•
•
What is renewable energy?
What forms does it take?
Why is it needed?
Targets exist for renewable energy to
generate 10% of electricity by 2010 and
20% by 2020!
• Can these be achieved?
• What forms of renewable energy will
deliver these targets?
11. The DTI List of
Renewable Resources
Wind, Wave and Hydro Power
Photovoltaics
Active Solar Heating
Municipal and General Wastes
Landfill Gas
Geothermal
Agricultural and Forestry Wastes
Energy Crops
Fuel Cells
15. Solar Radiation
• solar heating panels/passive
• solar power generation
• solar cells / photovoltaic cells
16. Solar cells
• convert light into a small electrical output milliwatts output.
• need a bank/array of cells for useful output.
• cost of cells is high but reducing.
• efficiency of cells is up to 23%/ improving.
17. Solar Panels
• are situated on roof of building.
• absorb heat in the form of radiation from sun.
• basically system is like a domestic central heating
radiator painted black/insulated.
• provides “topping up” of domestic hot water.
18. Photovoltaics on Buildings
• PV arrays, generating around
54kW (peak) with a total area
of 430m2, form the sloping
glazed roofs of the atrium
spaces in the four main
buildings.
• Ove Arup has designed the
system to match the annual
electricity demand of the
supply and extractor fans,
effectively providing zeroenergy ventilation systems.

20. Solar Power Generation
• located in desert/high intensity/long sunlight
hours
• parabolic mirrors reflect/focus sun’s rays onto
metal water pipe located along focal axis of
mirrors.
• High temperature produced - steam electrical power generated
23. Windpower
• Each windturbine can produce between 1/4
and 2 MW of electrical power.
• Windfarm needs to be located where there is a
relatively high average wind speed.
• Advantages?
• Disadvantages?
24. Calculation of number of
households supplied by a
windfarm
• Assume 24 windturbines each generating
0.25 MW for 70% of time.
• In a year this amounts to 3.66 x 107kwhr.
• If this figure is divided by average amount
of electricity used by a consumer ie 10,607
kwhr in a year,
• Answer is 3600 consumers.
• But 166 of these wind farms = 1000Mw
power station!
28. Hydroelectric
• Currently largest source of electricity from
renewables.
• Needs guaranteed supply of water.
• Galloway-West of Scotland - series of lochs
and rivers-cascade of flowing water.
• Kinetic energy of water rotates turbines which
generate electricity.
29. Tidal Power
• Located at some coastal sites - usually
estuaries and bays with large tidal range.
• Shape of coastal site above and below sea
level determines range eg Bay of Funday,
Severn.
• At high tide reservoir of water is created
which is allowed to ebb through turbines
located in dam.
• Expensive construction.
30. Wave Power
Land Installed
Marine Powered
Energy
Transformer on
Islay, West Coast
of Scotland.
Wavegen Co.
LIMPET provides 500kW of electricity
for the National Grid
Three floating wave power
stations at Lewis/1 MW each
31. Biomass
• cycle of sunlight - photosynthesis - plant growth absorption of CO2 - emission of O2.
• combustion of wood - heat
• some plants - alcohol
• decomposition - methane/landfill gas/fuel for
heating.
32. Woodburning
Electricity Generation
ARBRE is the first commercial
wood-burning plant of its
type in Europe.
It produces enough electricity
for 33,000 people from clean
and sustainable wood fuel
sources.
The plant has a 10MW
electricity generating capacity
and 8MW is exported to the
local grid.
The fuel for the plant is wood
chips from forestry and short
rotation coppice.
33. Coppice harvesting
First Renewables
Ltd
Short rotation coppice harvesting for ARBRE wood-fuelled power
station. As trees grow they store energy from the sun in their
biomass. At ARBRE’s power plant the energy stored in the
biomass is converted to electricity.
34. Straw Burning
Power Plant
Lorry leaving
plant after
delivering straw
– Elean Power station near Ely,Cambridgeshire
generates 36MW of electricity and is the worlds
largest such facility. It supplies 80,000 homes
with electricity.
35. Biomass Plant in Fife
Plant burns poultry litter
and produces 10MW of
electricity and fertiliser
Fluidised bed boiler
ensures efficient burning
and low emissions
37. SCENARIO STUDIES
• Suggest that delivering 10% of electricity from
renewables by 2010 at a cost of 3.5 p/kwh is
feasible
• Requires 3-4 GW new plant
• Dominant technologies –
1) Waste (Municipal/industrial/agricultural)
2) Remainder – landfill gas + hydro (small scale)
3) Longer term - photovoltaics
38. Conclusions
Major difficulties in attaining target of 10%
of electricity generated by renewables by
2010
Main contributors to this target will be :1) Offshore and Onshore
windfarms/clusters
2) Biomass/wood, straw, etc
3) Photovoltaic
But policies like Climate Change Levy and
the Renewables Obligation will help
establish renewables.
