  1. End Of Oil – Beginning of Solar Presentation Overview: • Population Growth and Resource Consumption • Peak Oil • Climate Change • Solar Facts • The Beauty of Renewable • Solar Thermal Solutions • Wood Pellet Solutions • Where do we go from here?

  2. Population Growth and Resource Consumption • Population Growth Chart 1800 to 2050 • DOE World Energy Consumption Chart 1950 to 2050

  3. Peak Oil Chart of Oil Production and Proven Reserves 1900 – 2100 Chart of Oil Price 1950 to Present The Era of Cheap Oil is over! Chart of Natural Gas Prices 1950 to Present

  4. Chart CO2 Percentage in Air 1800 – Present Chart Consumption of Fossil Fuels 1800 – Present Climate Change

  5. Climate Change The Scientists Learning about Man-Made Climate Change: • Club of Rome 1970s • Kyoto Protocol • World Climate Congress Bali 2007 • Working towards global targets need to find a good overview of the history of our understanding of man-made climate change....

  6. Climate Change Predicted Consequences of Climate Change: • more severe weather patterns (storms etc) • rising sea levels, affecting all costal regions • changing precipitation, affecting agriculture • ecological stress on all species • loss of bio diversity through accelerated extinctions Planet Earth will become a rougher place for all of us

  7. Solar Facts Some solar facts: • solar irradiation • total solar energy to Earth • another 5 billion years to go • the energy is free – the sun does not send a bill Forms of Renewable Solar Energy: • Biomass • Hydro Power • Wind Power • Solar Thermal • Photo Voltaic (PV) • Concentrating Solar Thermal Solar Energy is Plentiful

  8. The Beauty of Renewable The application of Renewable Energy Technologies requires a one-time capital invest to implement the required means to harvest solar energy, eg a wind turbine, hydro dam or a solar thermal installation. The incoming energy is free and clean. Well executed Renewable Energy Installations have a very long life time, with multiple times of pay-back over their life time. • Renewable Energy Installations create local work and keep money within the local communities, versus sending money to the Middle East to enrich feudal Sheiks. • Renewable Energy is de-centralized. Clean Non-Polluting Renewable Local Free
