  1. 5 Engineering Technology Goals in the Energy Value Chain

  2. Global Supply Chain for Industry • Adopting clean energy technologies • Developing advanced materials • Establishing standards • Reducing environmental impact • Water-energy nexus • Reduction in packaging • Zero manufacturing waste to landfill

  3. A sustainable and economically viable supply of energy is essential for economic growth and security

  4. Population Growth by 2025 URBAN Less developed regions RURAL More developed regions

  5. World Energy Use by Fuel Type, 1990-2035 • Access to affordable, clean energy • Technically sound energy portfolio 2011 (EIA, 2010)

  6. “The future is inherently uncertain and always will be.” — Energy Technology Perspectives 2010

  7. “Managing the risks of climate change will require a profound systematic and global transformation in the production and consumption of energy.” — Global Energy Technology Strategy Program

  8. Revolutionize Electricity Production • Efficiency • Climate change/ Sustainability • Renewables • Standards • Smart grid

  9. Reinvent Transportation • Advanced materials • Fuel efficiencies • Fuel options • Systems integration

  10. Transform Infrastructure • New technologies • New materials • New standards • Increased efficiency “Cities are the growth engines of the future” — Green City Index, Siemens AG

  11. Promote Sustainable Industry “New low-carbon technologies will be needed to sustain emission reductions beyond 2030, particularly in end-use sectors such as transport, industry and buildings.” — Energy Technology Perspectives 2010

  12. Empower Innovation “Just as energy is the basis of life itself, and ideas the source of innovation, so is innovation the vital spark of all human change, improvement and progress.” —Economist Ted Levitt

  13. Copenhagen / 2009 Livable, Competitive Cities Singapore / 2011 Curitiba (Brazil) / 2010 — Green City Index, Siemens AG

  14. 7 billion people on Earth Half of world’s population already live in urban areas 2.6 billion lack basic sanitation 1.3 billion lack access to clean water 1.4 billon lack access to electricity

  15. ASME will serve as an essential energy technology resource and a leading advocate for technically sound energy

  16. ASME will foster a broader, competent, vibrant and more diverse engineering workforce with sustained engagement in ASME over all career stages.

  17. ASME will collaborate to develop and provide locally relevant engineering resources that advance public safety and quality of life throughout the world.

  18. Energy Resources on ASME.org ASME Energy Grand Challenge report (2009) General Position Paper on Energy Policy (2007) Technology and Policy Recommendations and Goals for Reducing Carbon Dioxide Emissions in the Energy Sector (2009) National Energy Policy Goals Proclamation (2009) Energy Choices -- A Guide to Facts and Perspectives

  19. Energy Challenges • Revolutionize electricity production • Reinvent transportation • Transform infrastructure • Promote sustainable industry • Empower innovation
