Rays of Hope

In 2013, global non-hydro renewables exceeded oil fired generation (plants) First half 2015, 70% of all new generating capacity in the US was in renewables (mostly wind and solar) 74% of all energy in Germany comes from renewables Coal and nuclear are declining rapidly

70% of Mongolian Nomads are solar

The Great Transition As of January 2015, Solar is the fastest growing form of renewable energy in the US API The transition from fossil fuels to clean energy is under way world wide and is as profound a shift as the move from horse and buggy to the automobile was in 1900.

The Great Transition

Current Status Average amount of CO2 saved by a US solar home: 178 tons Number of owned homes in the US: 87 million US Census 2013 Number of US homes with solar: 700,000 Number of Solar Homes in Santa Cruz: 1,250 City’s goal: 5,000 homes by 2020 C02 reduction if successful: 890,000 tons

Facts about Residential Solar Purchasing a system is the cheapest long term Systems can, but do not have to be purchased No up-front costs options include buying the electricity produced only, and zero down loans Technology improvements focus on inverters and batteries Solar adds value to the home (3-4%)

Harvesting the sun Graceful concept, clean technology
