The
use of renewable
energy in the United States could take a significant leap forward with improved storage
technologies or more efforts to «match» different forms
of alternative energy systems that provide an overall more steady flow
of electricity, researchers say in a new report.
The practical
uses for these methods range from the optimization
of alternative energy technologies to the development
of pharmaceuticals.
The Centre for
Alternative Technology has developed a series
of practical and theoretical activities and support packs on environmental issues, biodiversity,
energy and sustainability for
use across the curriculum at all levels.

alternative technology incorporating re-cycled water systems, advanced LED lighting powered by batteries and inverters, and other unique
energy systems designed specifically to meet our base criteria...
use minimal power without sacrificing the luxury experience, significantly reduce our consumption
of fuel, reduce water usage and recover and re-
use the water we
use.
If most
of this investment were focused on
alternative energy and new
technologies (e.g., better solar collectors
using carbon nanonets as one example), this could be the basis for a huge industry in which the USA could be a world leader.
Once green
technology (solar and wind
energy, and more efficient and low carbon intensive ways
of production) becomes more profitable than the
alternative (carbon intensive sources
of energy, and industries that
use them)....
Such policies should promote the
use of non-combustion renewable
energy, low carbon fuels (measured on a lifecycle basis), expanded transmission and smart grid
technologies,
alternative forms
of transportation, and
energy storage.
Further dissemination
of state -
of - the - art
technologies to increase thermal
energy efficiency and electric
energy efficiency and the
use of alternative fuels including biomass as well as to reduce clinker content in cement is needed.
Improving
energy efficiency and switching to
alternative fuels, in combination with reducing the clinker content in cement and deploying emerging and innovative
technologies like carbon capture and the
use of alternative binding materials are the main carbon - mitigation methods available in cement manufacturing.
Nick Molho identified the key issues as
energy market reform,
energy efficiency, increasing renewable
technology, and better grid
technology: both a «super» grid linking the various European national
energy systems together so the fluctuations
of alternative sources could be accommodated, and also a «smart» grid where individual users could
use power wisely and cost - effectively by the
use of smart metering at home and work.
Many governments are providing tax advantages and other subsidies to support
alternative energy sources or are mandating the
use of specific fuels or
technologies.
It is because so little
energy is being
used, and because
alternatives are ruled out ab initio (the model contains no nuclear power, and no
technology for storing away carbon emissions from fossil fuels; natural gas prices rise strongly and coal plants are retired well before they are clapped out) that the model ends up with such a high percentage
of renewables; indeed given the premise it's slightly surprising it doesn't end up with even more.
As a huge array
of startup firms are slowly stumbling upon the goodness
of blockchain
technology and implementing the same in their
energy sector, the need for making
use of alternative energy sources is increasingly being felt.
