LAYOUT OF THE PRESENTATION

Depending of the energy politics of the different countries, there are variations in the relationship between the GDP and the Power Consumtion per capita. Wordlwide there is a fix relationship between the economical growth ant the increase in energy consumption. Given that the capiltalist economy must grow at least 2% yearly: The world must to consume always more energy.

• EFFICIENT COUNTRIES vs NON EFFICIENT COUNTRIES

ECONOMY NEED TO

INCREASE GDP, ENERGY CONSUMPTION IS DEPENDENT OF GDP

Today, the largest amount of energy consumption based on petrol. It is not planed any worldwide big change in this trend for the next years

- 5% yearly in the last 30 years - 15% yearly in the last 10 years

Petrol prices has changed from a base of 25 $ during the years between 1980 and 2000 to a base of 80-100 $ for the next years.

• HOW CAN STABILISE THE PRICE OF OIL?

BRENT 2012.03.29: 122 $ PER BARREL …. BUT THE WORLD IS NOT YET OUT OF THE ECONOMICAL CRISIS !!!

In 1971 Dr. Huber has predicted the world oil peak for year 2000. SOME CHANGES ON THE CONSUMPTION IN 1979 HAS DELAYED TO … ?

October 5th, 1903 -- October 11th, 1989

"Our ignorance is not so vast as our failure to use what we know."

In 1956 Dr. Hubert has predicted the 1970 peak oil of US

LAYOUT OF THE PRESENTATION

World has a

total necessity of 15 TW of power

The marked areas can produce about 18 TW of solar power

FROM A TECHNOLOGICAL POINT OF VIEW?

BUT PRICE IS THE KEY

DURING THE LAST 2

LAYOUT OF THE PRESENTATION

DEPENDING OF PETROL GENERATORS

4 TIMES HIGHER

ELECTRICAL COST AS IN USA OR EU

+ 40 $C for kWh

EXTREMELY DEPENDENT AND SENSIBLE TO CHANGES OIL PRICES

SHORT PAY-BACK OF ANY ENERGY SOLUTION

NUCLEAR ENERGY??

PLANTS OF COAL? Do you have own coal? Is it good for the tourism sector? Do you have infrastructures to support

DECENTRALISED DEVELOPMENT?

GAS Very good for power, dangerous for energy

RENEWABLE ENERGY: Local labor for local energy

IMPLEMENTING NEW CONCEPTS DEVELOPING OWN CONCEPTS

HIGH IRRADIATION PLACES

HIGH AIR CONDITIONING CONSUPMTION

QUIK INSTALLATION (50 MW IN 6 MONTHS)

FIX COST OF ENERGY FOR THE NEXT 20 YEARS

INDEPENDENCE OF OIL AND ENERGY PRICES

HELP TO STABILISE GRIDS AND DESENTRALICED GENERATION IF NEEDED

VERY LOW ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

HIGH WIND LOADS

HIGH SEA CORROSION

NECESSITY TO STABILITY FOR THE GRIDS

AFTER 40 % OF ENERGY SUPPLY, ACCUMULATION WILL BE NEEDED

MONITORING AND CONTROL OF THE POWER PLANTS AND GRIDS

IF YOU WANT TO INCREASE YOUR GDP YOU WILL NEED INCREASE

YOUR ECONOMICAL CONSUMPTION

THE ONLY WAY TO DO IT IS SAFELY IS TO REDUCE YOUR DEPENDENCIY ON FOSIL FUELS

TO REDUCE YOUR DEPENDENCY ON FOSIL FUELS, THE BEST WAY IS TO USE RENEWABLE ENERGY
