Advanced Nuclear Power Systems for Long-term Energy and Climate Security - ANU Lecture
Advanced Nuclear Power Systems for Long-term Energy and Climate Security - ANU Lecture
High rez version of the slides here: bravenewclimate.files.wordpress.com Fossil fuels currently supply about 80% of modern society's primary energy. Given the imperatives of climate change, pollution, energy security and dwindling supplies, and enormous technical, logistical and economic challenges of scaling up coal or gas power plants with carbon capture and storage to sequester all that carbon, we are faced with the necessity of a nearly complete transformation of the world's energy systems. Nuclear power is capable of providing all the carbon-free energy that mankind requires, although the prospect of such a massive deployment raises questions of uranium shortages, increased energy, environmental and socio-political impacts from mining and fuel enrichment, and so on. These potential roadblocks can all be greatly alleviated or dispensed with, however, through the use of fast neutron reactors coupled to full fuel recycling. The Integral Fast Reactor (IFR), a sodium-cooled, metal-fueled pool design, developed at US national laboratories in the latter years of the last century, can economically and cleanly supply all the energy the world needs without any further mining or enrichment of uranium. This talk will cover the history and technical basis of the IFR and similar "Generation IV" designs, consider current fast reactor developments in China, India, Russia and elsewhere, and consider realistic timetables for large-scale deployment and the critical synergies with <b>...</b>

Stan Deyo. - Anti-Gravity, Free Energy _ the New World Order -
Stan Deyo has held Above Top Secret Security Clearance and worked undercover for the FBI. He was part of an exclusive "black project", headed by Dr. Edward Teller specializing in the development of "flying saucer technology". Stan trained in computer programming at IBM. Stan's main love is still advanced propulsion and "free" energy research which took him to Australia in '71 to work on these systems. Currently Stan is working on a Tesla-based energy system, several propulsion projects and is a public lecturer on world events, including: The coming global economic collapse / Developing solar-related crises in the Earth's climate / The "UFO Deception and its real intent / Suppression of badly needed technologies / The coming destruction of America by civil war followed by foreign invasion / High voltage physics of cheaper energy / The New World Order from the perspective of a former FBI 'spy." Included in this discussion is the history of alternative energy breathroughs, Edward Teller's covert technological development program, the mathematical equations used in the advanced physics as well as in-depth information and slides demonstrating 'anti-gravity', the effort used in the 50s to try to get scientists to think outside the box, as well as the multinationalist's "NWO" agenda utilizing "UFO" technology and their reasons for doing so. standeyo.com

Global Energy Management: The Business School of the University of Colorado Denver
How would you like to be CEO of an Energy Company of the future? You have to go to school first!!! Here's the place! MS in Global Energy Management The Master of Science (MS) in Global Energy Management (GEM) is designed to educate future leaders in global energy management and support management succession for the energy industry worldwide. As a major energy hub for the US and Canada, Denver is positioned to create the synergy needed for this successful venture. The Curriculum Real-Time Delivery. Real-World Relevance. GEM students receive an educational experience that goes beyond the classroom. Energy industry experts partnered with the Business School to create a curriculum that integrates theory with real-world business. Courses meet physically the first week of each term (40 hours) with the remainder of the coursework completed online. The curriculum content, delivery-method and assignments reflect the topics, challenges and expectations of the energy industry. As a cohort program, students must collaboratively work with teammates - often spanning multiple time zones, cultures and professional levels - in order to successfully complete group projects. In each class, students are expected to assume the role of the "decision-maker" and are asked to assess the financial implications, technologies, manpower and capital resources that affect real-world energy endeavors. The courses are taught by faculty members from around the world with extensive experience in the energy <b>...</b>

Our collaborative approach to revolutionizing solar energy
Our collaborative approach to revolutionizing solar energy
Michael O'Halloran discusses our unique approach to collaboration with clients on the ONAMI project. As the world searches for cleaner and more sustainable energy sources, the conversion of sunlight into electricity has become an increasingly attractive solution. However, before solar energy can become used on a broader scale and become a renewable energy solution leader, its manufacturing inefficiencies, costs, and carbon footprint must be reduced. To help address these issues, CH2M HILL's Industrial and Advanced Technology (I&AT) Group is working with Microproducts Breakthrough Institute (MBI), Oregon Nanoscience and Microtechnologies Institute (ONAMI), Oregon State University (OSU), the US Department of Energy (DOE), and other private companies and leading institutions around the world to transform the solar energy industry and increase global implementation of the renewable energy source.

Increase in Global Demand of Grid-scale Energy Storage by 2017
Increase in Global Demand of Grid-scale Energy Storage by 2017
Increase in Global Demand of Grid-scale Energy Storage by 2017 Lux Research released a report titled ?Grid Storage under the Microscope: Using Local Knowledge to Forecast Global Demand? of the cost effectiveness of eight energy storage technologies (lithium-ion for power, lithium-ion for energy, sodium nickel chloride, sodium sulfur, vanadium redox flow, zinc bromine flow, F ywheel and lead carbon) in six grid-scale applications throughout 44 countries, including all 50 US states. Their report predicts that there will be an annual increase in the global demand for grid-scale energy storage. By 2017, the demand will reach an astounding 185.4 gigawatt-hours (GWh) and will represent a $113.5 billion incremental revenue opportunity for an industry that currently generates sales of $50 to $60 billion a year. Solar Panel Leasing is Booming Analysts with the US Department of Energy?s (DOE) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) found that the solar lease business is surging in southern California. Homeowners in less affluent neighborhoods can now afford solar energy by leasing rather than buying the solar panels on their roofs. This could mean that rooftop solar power could attract an additional 13 million Americans which could push solar energy into the mainstream.
