-- Suppose there lived a man in the immediately succeeding generation who combined in his own person a tyrant's power with a tyrant's passion, and suppose that this man had somehow conceived the idea of concentrating his entire time and energy upon the problem of bringing the truth to light on this point, would this constitute him a disciple?

What is required for this to happen, more than anything else, Is not a technology revolution, but a mindset evolution away from old technology that has passed its use - by date, (such as extensive, polluting and smelly lagoons) and outdated attitudes that treat waste water as a cost or even place in which to hide process problems, rather than a resource for recycling and generation of green energy.

Our second daily report from CHDI's annual HD therapies meeting in Palm Springs, devoted to problems with energy generation and chemical pathways... and ways we might be able to fix them

As formulated now: We need to switch to carbonless energy generation so that we can get on with our consumptive lifestyle — the problem is intractable.

It'd be great to think that renewable energy sources and distributed electricity generation could solve such problems, and they're great where they work.

The problems are: Lack of a constructive, earth nurturing moral outlook, ideology that encourages expanding capitalist economies that do not factor ecological capital or its destruction into their bottom line, greed as a way of life, corporate imperatives and power, intentionally misinformed or ignorant public (especially in the United States and China), inertia, rampant bad design in energy generation, housing, transportation, community planning, consumer products and packaging and materials cycling, etc..

The entwined climate / energy / development challenge is the world's worst problem, with every single facet posing challenges to a species that is mainly «here and now» and with any generation only prodded to powerful action by powerful events.

• Energy generation from coal without «CCS» (carbon capture and storage) is a big problem in terms of carbon dioxide emissions.

«Part of my problem with the whole process is, that it seems that the cleaner we make our energy generation capability... now we want to come up against an obstacle that nothing can come out of those pipes, we have already taken out the VOX, the NOX, the SOX, the POX, the TOX.

C. Technically, it is still possible to solve the climate problem, but there are two essential requirements: (1) a simple across - the - board (all fossil fuels) rising carbon fee [2] collected from fossil fuel companies at the domestic source (mine or port of entry), not a carbon price «scheme,» and the money must go to the public, not to government coffers, otherwise the public will not allow the fee to rise as needed for phase - over to clean energy, (2) honest government support for, rather than strangulation of, RD&D (research, development and demonstration) of clean energy technologies, including advanced generation, safe nuclear power.

The primary current problem is that the climate alarmists are creating enormous problems in the generation and use of reliable energy necessary for the development and even the continuation of modern civilization, with adverse effects on the economy, human welfare, and even the environment, all for no significant benefits to anyone except vendors of renewable energy facilities.

Clean, local energy resources like energy efficiency, distributed renewable generation, and energy storage are tools that can solve grid problems instead of relying only on building expensive infrastructure projects.

Reduce dependency on (imported) fossil fuels (balance of payments, reliance on potentially unfriendly or unstable nations as suppliers, high cost at the pump, all problems as seen from US viewpoint): — encourage nuclear power generation (cut red tape)-- encourage energy savings and improved efficiency projects (tax breaks)-- encourage basic research into new (non fossil fuel) resources (subsidies)-- encourage imports from friendly neighbor, Canada (Keystone pipeline)-- encourage local oil and gas exploration («drill, baby, drill»)-- encourage «clean coal» projects (tax incentives)-- set goal to become energy independent within ten years

Solar and wind in particular, along with several other clean energy generation systems do not «burn» any fuel to produce electricity, they do not «emit» anything into the air as a byproduct of electricity generation, and hence they help solve the problem and smooth the transition to a lower carbon economy.

But electricity generation is not the core energy problem unless one is erroneously focused only on CO2, in which case the simple answer in many places is CCGT — as is happening in the US for economic reasons.

Because of these existing dispatchable resources, California poses a less challenging problem than most areas elsewhere, most or all practical renewable energy sources are variable generation, and dedicated storage must be purchased for leveling power output.

If «heating the globe» is the problem (and CO2 is just correlated by this ratio when most of the energy is «C - based»), then switching to modes of energy generation that supply the same amount of heat, but less CO2, little is gained.

The green proposition of electric cars, especially the plug - in variety, is that by promoting the development of electricity generation and energy storage technology development (in the form of energy storage devices such as batteries), electric cars are not only reducing the need for gasoline, but also creates pull factors for the development of grid - connected renewable energy sources such as solar and wind energy by creating new electricity demand and provide energy storage solutions to address the problems of the intermittent nature of solar and wind power.

Evan Halper's December 2 article in the Los Angeles Times, «Power Struggle: Green energy versus a grid that's not ready» perpetuates the false narrative that renewable energy increases the risk of blackouts, when in fact the problem is centralized fossil fuel nonrenewable generation.

Low carbon energy generation shouldn't be a problem, in theory.

But he wholly fails to explain what the implications of the variability problem is (the need for overbuild of generation capacity and expensive / unfeasible large - scale energy storage), nor whether, if an effort is made to deal practically with these problems in real national electricity grids, the «increasingly cheaper» renewables will ever become cheap enough (when all relevant real - world factors are considered) and reliable enough (without natural gas «backup»), to actually substitute for and displace fossil fuels (or nuclear) at the scale required.

The problem, for storage system owners, is time - of - use rates are getting «stale,» and don't represent what mix of fuels are producing generation on the grid on a moment - to - moment basis, said Alex Morris, director of policy and regulatory affairs for the California Energy Storage Alliance (CESA).

The longer we wait to make the transition to clean energy, the worse this problem will get for our children and future generations.

How can you be so certain that future generations would not say we panicked on very little information, ignored the many unknowns and allowed ourselves to be diverted from real and pressing problems of poverty, much of it caused by lack of energy — to chase a phantom problem that could be resolved as technological progress followed the wider prosperity achieved as poor countries developed?

There is no one solution to our current dilemma, reducing energy consumption should have a higher priority than building wind farms, but wind power is just as much a long - term solution to the sustainable energy problem as is any generation technology.

«We are going to have to face the fact that climate change is one of several monumental environmental problems our generation will face,» Parker said during a keynote talk at the Entrepreneurial Energy Expo at Babson College here on Thursday.

«Our goal from the very start was to find a clean energy generation solution that could address the global scale of the carbon problem.

Problems are often associated with bad policy decisions continued dirty energy usage / generation and some mandatory actions need to be made, i.e. Carbon fee and dividend or more and bigger renewable energy projects.

Researchers are coming up with ways to solve the problems that are being caused by renewable energy, investors are putting capital to the task, and apparently the Chinese have discovered that sick people is a bigger problem than power generation.

In fact, before Brook heard about fourth generation nuclear, he thought the global warming problem was intractable because his own calculations confirmed the observations of many others (including Energy Secretary Steven Chu, MIT President Susan Hockfield and US Senator Lamar Alexander) regarding the necessity of nuclear power due to the problems with renewables being able to scale to meet our energy Energy Secretary Steven Chu, MIT President Susan Hockfield and US Senator Lamar Alexander) regarding the necessity of nuclear power due to the problems with renewables being able to scale to meet our energy energy needs.

Moreover, Wind - it solves the problem of linking energy generation and electricity transmission in the same way - by co-locating them.

Generation Awake is providing plenty of facts about our water supply and use, the quality of our air, the problems of our waste - streams, our energy usage, etc., and educates readers on alternatives, in the hopes that people will then begin to make more sustainable choices.

Typically a contaminate to worry about, a group of engineers from Stanford University have figured out how to turn the problem of nitrates in the water in to a possible solution for energy generation.

Last month, AIST announed its new flexible CIGS Photovoltaic Cell with an energy conversion efficiency of 17.7 %, noting that the growing concerns about environmental problems and increasing crude oil prices has led to an increased interest in power generation using renewable energy such as photovoltaics and other new energy resources.

The renewable energy market has been expanded, and the FIT system is being revised to address several problems as a result of the rapid expansion of the renewables market, including a newly adopted bid pricing system for certain solar power generation projects, the first of which is expected to occur within this year.
