What do Alternative Energies need to achieve? Run the Modern Industrial World the way it runs now! WHILE FIGHTING ENERGY DESCENT!
51
Why Alternative Energies? To mitigate Climate Change ?
52
Challenge to Alternatives Maintain Perpetual Exponential Growth of Modern Industrial World. Follow Rules of Energetics
53
RULE #1 Rules of Energetics Net Energy (ERoEI) The Net Energy Gained has to be suitably high for the alternative to be viable.
54
RULE #2 Oil Replaceability Redesign the Modern Industrial World to run on Electricity. Entails a huge embedded energy cost. Rules of Energetics
55
RULE #3 Oil Dependency The alternative must not be too dependent on oil and its price. Rules of Energetics
56
RULE #4 Energy Density The energy density must compare with oil. Rules of Energetics
57
RULE #5 Energy Density The energy density must compare with oil. Rules of Energetics
58
RULE #6 Scalability The alternative has to be scalable to replace oil. Rules of Energetics
59
RULE #7 Oil Byproducts The alternative must give the byproducts of oil that are crucial to building, running & maintaining the Modern Industrial World Rules of Energetics
60
All Alternative Energies are…. ENERGY CONVERTERS The Energetics Truth
61
Alternative Energies are useful ONLY if we…. Accept Energy Descent The Economic/Industrial Truth Do honest Energy Accounting
62
It is not merely Alternative Energies that we are seeking… It is and Alternative World The Whole Truth
