Shortfall must be supplemented by alternative energy Energy available (fossil hydro, non-breeder fission World energy consumption YEAR The Drive for Energy Research: World’s current population growth is 1.3%/year Energy consumption for the past 15-years has increased by 1.5% per year Energy consumption for the next 20-years is estimated to grow by 2% per year At this rate, the world’s energy consumption will double in 36 years This will continuously drive the search for more energy and better utilization of energy

The United States (US) generates more waste every year, growing form 247 million tons of non-hazardous waste in year 1990 to 409 million tons in year 2001 The United Kingdom (UK) also produces literally a mountain of waste of over 400 million tons annually It is also estimated that, household waste continues to grow at a rate of 3% per annum Waste into Power
