Jacobson's team and others cling to the idea
of 100 - percent
conversion because they (rightly) want to eliminate fossil and nuclear
energy, and they foresee that any future supply gap left by a shortfall in renewable
generation is going to be filled by those dirty sources.
The solution is to redraw the whole business model for the life cycle (
conversion — >
generation — > distribution — > consumption) for green
energy, the current merge into the brown

energy lost in the
generation process, lost in any
conversion processes and lost in transmission and distribution.
Energy - related GHG emissions are a by - product of the conversion and delivery sector (which includes extraction / refining, electricity generation and direct transport of energy carriers in pipelines, wires, ships, etc.), as well as the energy end - use sectors (transport, buildings, industry, agriculture, forestry and waste), as outlined in Chapters 5 to 10 (Figure

But the issues
of relevance here are: (a) whether you can have enough
of it to avoid building more coal (current situation in Germany says «no»); (b) whether you can have enough
of it to displace current coal; (c) whether you can have, store, and distribute, enough
of it to meet future
energy growth (especially in the developing world) and the
conversion to an all - electric society; (d) whether you can run a modern society without baseload
generation [answer: perhaps, perhaps not, but if yes, it requires a complete reconfiguration
of the way we manage electricity].
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
