Slide 8
EROI Energy Return On Investment (cumulative electricity
generated) / (cumulative primary energy required) If EROI is >1
than production is profitable

Types of Energies
Slide 10
Solar Solar cells convert sunlight into energy Live in
California Avg. Monthly electric bill: $80 Cost associated with 50%
savings: $10,365 Payoff Period: 15.86 Years
Slide 11
Solar EROI Solar LEC Between $0.20 - $0.25 Power satellite 2.0
Power tower 4.2 Photovoltaics 1.7 to 10.0
Slide 12
The Power Of Moving Water Using turbines to generate
electricity
Slide 13
Water EROI 11.2 - 267 Energy Return on Investment Water LEC
Between $0.06 - $0.14
Slide 14
Wind Energy To make electricity, the shaft of the turbine must
be connected to an electrical generator. Through gearboxes, the
generator converts the mechanical energy of the spinning turbine
shaft into electricity.
Slide 15
Wind Energy EROI 18.1:1 Energy Return on Investment Wind Energy
LEC Between $0.06 - $0.13
Slide 16
Biomass Energy Renewable is considered in human lifespan Wood,
Cellulose, Ethanol, Blogas
Slide 17
Biomass EROI Biomass LEC Between $0.07 - $0.14 Ethanol
(sugercane) 0.8 to 1.7 Ethanol (corn) 1.3 Ethanol (corn residues)
0.7 to 1.8 Methanol (wood) 2.6
Slide 18
Geothermal Energy Power Extracted from heat within the
Earth
Slide 19
Geothermal EROI Geothermal LEC Between $0.05 - $0.11 Liquid
dominated 4.0 Hot dry rock 1.9 to 13.0

Slide 23
KEMA Utility of the Future is an umbrella for the transition in
the energy industry's business models, technology platforms, and
industry structure that will occur as a result of renewable
technologies, smart grid, and increasing decentralization of all
aspects of energy production and delivery
Slide 24
KEMA Energy Transition Wind Integration Electric Vehicles
Energy Storage
Slide 25
Co-firing bio mass with Coal 20% Renewable Bio Mas 20% Coal
Input Reduced Emissions

Market Shifts Google and Solar Power Europes Super Grid Suncor:
Oil Sands to Wind and Bio Energy
Slide 31
Google Investments in thin-film solar cells Develop new
technology Reduce cost by 50 percent Production of heliostats
Acquired solar tech companies Waiting for FTC approval
Slide 32
Europe & the Supergrid European Commission 2020 plan
Sustainable growth Reduce carbon emissions to 20% of 1990 level
Upgrade to European supergrid Create 600,000 new jobs Increase GDP
by 0.6 to 0.8%
Slide 33
Europe & the Supergrid Grid developed by Airtricity and ABB
Carry power from Eastern Europe to the UK Connected to wind farms
Wind farms down time Transport power Improve energy market
Slide 34
Suncor Energy Inc Canadian energy company Specialized in
synthetic crude oil from oil sands Using those profits and
investing in renewable energy Wind farms Ethanol Plant
Slide 35
Suncor Energy Inc Reduce impact of Oil Fields $1 billion to
improve water and air conditions Working UofA researchers Improving
efficiencies Upgrading plants in Edmonton and Fort MacMurray
Slide 36
Suncor Energy Inc Wind farms Four across Canada Combined 147
megawatts annually Reduce 284,000 tonnes of CO 2 emissions New
power initiative goal
