Plan B
-
the way the world needs
to go, to survive.........
|

PLAN B
|
|
"Pull up, Pull up".... Stop flying blind into the ground at zero net energy |
||
|
|
Focus on emerging high EROI*, solar based technologies |
||
|
|
Solar = direct thermal, PVs, wind, hydro, biomass |
||
|
|
The earth receives each year from the sun >8,000 times the energy used by humans - Humans create scarcity not nature |
||
|
|
Shift from millions of barrels/day to mega watts/km2 of harvested solar energy. |
||
|
|
Requires fractal mesh broadband networking |
||
|
|
Enables to move fully commercially |
||
|
|
From less than 20% efficiency, mine-to-plug or well-to-wheel, centralized and hierarchical technologies |
||
|
|
To over 80% efficiency, distributed, non-hierarchical solar technologies |
||
|
|
Prospect of huge national and global markets |
||
|
|
90% growth in global markets for advanced broadband |
||
|
|
14 terawatt~ of power generation capacity to be redeployed away from fossil or nuclear and toward solar-based resources |
||
|
|
Over 800M vehicles to be substituted with solar powered new forms of transport |
||
~Electricity energy units The basic unit of energy used in the electricity industry is a watt hour.
1 kilowatt hour (kWh) = 1 thousand watt hours
1 terawatt hour = 1 trillion watt hours 1million3
|
|
|
|
|
Saving the planet is
cheap
Plan B feasible for about 1/2
the cost of the current Iraq War
 |
Required knowledge and technologies are commercially available | ||
|
|
Can be achieved competitively, without massive government intervention | ||
|
|
Offers the prospect of high returns, sustainable growth and high quality, rewarding employment prospects |
||
|
|
Two main phases: | ||
|
|
Over the next 10 years pull up well above zero net energy | ||
|
|
Over the next 30 years achieve full solar transition | ||
|
|
By the same move Climate Change is solved painlessly, once and for all, while | ||
|
|
Business and employment are thriving | ||
