Use of Localenergy reduces the need for more transmission infrastructure Transmission Capacity vs. Demand Peak Demand Capacity
We already recycle energy in many ways. US Operating Recycled Energy Capacity 2002 by Source of Waste Energy --Total 9,328 MW Wood Waste Liquids, 35 MW, 0% Waste Oil 74 MW, 1% Other Biomass Gases 111 MW, 1% Other Biomass Solid, 25 MW, 0% Landfield Gas, 877 MW, 9% Blast Furnace Gas, 926 MW, 10% Black Liquor, 3577 MW, 39% Other Gases, 1258 MW, 13% Wood Waste Solids, 2447 MW, 27%
We could easily recycle a lot more energy 100 GW Potential NOW Peak Demand …Organic Rankine Cycle Fuels Cells in the Chlorine-Alkaline Industry Advanced Cogeneration - Iron & Steel Back-Pressure Turbine - District Heating Flare Gas Recovery Pressure Power recovery Agriculture - Anaerobic Digestion Industrial Wastewater - Anaerobic Digestion Capacity
Use The Bully Pulpit Expand Systems R&D on heat recovery technologies (incl. nano) and fuel clean up and use (including nano) Add Recycled Energy to a Renewable Portfolio Standard Train & Develop Energy Services Workforce. Policy Options to Promote Local Recycled Energy
