Electricity Generation

How EFFICIENT is your power supply?       How much energy is lost in transmission?
Point-of-use (or near point-of-use) offers greater scales of economy - is more energy efficient.

How sustainable is this????? Most are finite resources- Oil, Coal, Natural Gas, Nuclear
they also contribute large amounts of CO2 particularly coal!  Hydro and wind are often dependant on weather.

Consider
     Micro power generation Compressed Generation Air Units using nGEN SYSTEMS Technology

Point of use generation - Renewable, Sustainable, Solar based
Where does world supplies of electricity come from?

 

Data Sources -    Global   -   United States    -    Australia   -    New Zealand   -  United Kingdom   -   Japan    -   Germany    -   France   -  India  -  China

Coal fuels over 40% of electricity worldwide Source

“Dirty” power supply (harmonics, spikes, etc., due to increasing use of computerized equipment, electronic appliances, fluorescent lighting, air conditioning equipment, pumps, etc.)

Declining power factor in the commercial and residential sectors (in some areas as low as 0.5 to 0.6) – drastically reduces access to energy in the grid
