2. Energy is the capacity of a physical system to perform work. Energy exists in several forms such as heat, kinetic or mechanical energy, light, potential energy, electrical, or other forms. According to the law of conservation of energy, the total energy of a system remains constant, though energy may transform into another form. 3. Energy crisis DEMANDS IN ENERGY INCREASING LACK OF ENERGY 4. An energy crisis is any great bottleneck (or price rise) in the supply of energy resources to an economy. The supply of energy is far less than its demands can effect the whole mankind to run towards the development or daily purposes that crisis is called energy crisis 5. Oil crisis energy shortage petroleum crisis electricity shortage or electricity crisis. 6. With the development of economy, more and more energy is needed 7. www.themegallery.com The Energy Crisis Has Arrived 8. Oil crisis SupplyDemand Imbalance Over consumption Choke point disruption or bottlenecks at oil refineries Port facilities that restrict fuel supply 9. When the maximum rate of global petroleum extraction is reached, after which the rate of production enters terminal decline, thats called peak oil. These shows the long term deny for the availability of petroleum products Emerging oil shortage 10. Political eventsIndustrial actions Energy crisis Union organized strikes Government embargoes Regime change Monarchy collapse Military occupation Coup Over-consumption (cold winters) Ageing infrastructure Infrastructure damage from severe weather Attacks by terrorists or militiary on important infrastructure 11. More population, the more use of earth,results emptying the earth using excessive non-renweable sustances for survival. The increased population desires more products to use, results in using more energy to make those products in order to provide more infractructures. OVER POPULATION SQUEEZES THE EARTH 12. Car using earths Non renewalbe Materials i.e as the Number of facilities Increases then chances of crisis is maximum. Increased in infractructures and the development of industries itself Can also cause the crisis of energy if proper Usage is forbidden. For an example in order to generate electricity the huge mass of non renewable substances are used and also the number of increasing infrastructures like vehicles and electronic goods can also be the reason to evolve crisis 13. Attacks by terrorists on important infrastructures Political events Over careless consumption of energy resourses Wars between the countries e.g. Attack in iraq 14. www.themegallery.com 1 2 Electricity consumers may experience intentionally- engineered rolling blackouts during periods of insufficient supply or unexpected power outages New technology and energy efficiency measures become desirable for consumers seeking to decrease transport costs. Social effects 15. www.themegallery.com 3 4 Industrialized nations which dependent on oil would have an adverse effect on the economies of oil producers. Economic effects Tourism The development of coastal area 16. More oil drilling More use of nuclear power and coal Passing a windfall profits tax to assure that the oil companies did not become too rich 17. Imposing taxes to assure that the price of gasoline did not fall Forcing to raise the fuel efficiency of cars Smaller, More Efficient Vehicles 18. www.themegallery.com http://images.google.com Chen, A.
