Ocean PowerOcean Power• Oceans cover three quarters of the
earth’s surface and represent a vast natural energy resource in the form of waves
• The World Energy Council estimates that 2TW of energy could be harvested from the world’s oceans, the equivalent of twice the world’s electricity production
• If less than 0.1% of the renewable energy within the oceans could be converted into electricity it would satisfy the present worlddemand for energy more than five times over

Fuel CellsFuel Cells-- FundamentalFundamental
• The electrolyte provides a physical barrier to prevent the direct mixing of the fuel and the oxidant, allows the conduction of ionic charge between the electrodes, and transports the dissolved reactants to the electrode.
• The electrode structure is porous, and is used to maximise the three-phase interface between the electrode, electrolyte and the gas/liquid, and also to separate the bulk gas phase and the electrolyte.
• The gas/liquid ionisation or de-ionisation reactions take place on the surface of the electrode, and the reactant ions are conducted away from or into the three-phase interface.

Fuel CellsFuel Cells-- Advantages and disadvantagesAdvantages and disadvantages
Advantages• Efficiency - Fuel cells are generally more efficient than combustion engines
as they are and are not limited by temperature as is the heat engine.• Simplicity - Fuel cells are essentially simple with few or no moving parts.
High reliability may be attained with operational lifetimes exceeding 40,000 hrs.
• Low emissions - Fuel cells running on direct hydrogen and air produce only water as the by-product.
• Silence - The operation of fuel cell systems are very quiet with only a few moving parts if any. This is in strong contrast with present combustion engines.
Disadvantages• Relatively high cost of the fuel cell, and• to a lesser extent the source of fuel.

Kyoto ProtocolKyoto Protocol-- Japan, December 1997Japan, December 1997
• 55 nations agreed to implement measures to reduce emissions to stabilize the global environment
• 38 industrialized nations agreed to reduce their 1990 level greenhouse emissions by 8% in 2008-2012
• European Union committed to reduce with 8%• The US by 7%• Japan by 6%• Australia’s “eventual” target of 8%
How to RHow to Reduce COeduce CO22 EmissionsEmissions??• Use clean energy source for electricity generation, e.g.
solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and nuclear (?)
• Reduce power loss in power transmission lines
• Use high efficiency electrical appliances in households and industry
• Since motors account for 65% of the electric energy consumed in industrial applications, it is important to– Select right motor size (motor selector software package)
– Use high efficiency motors, e.g. PM motors
– Use high efficiency electric drive techniques, e.g. variable speed, direct drive
• Total annual consumption 50,000 GWh = 50 TWh
• Average household in Sydney consumes 20 kWh per day, 7,300 kWh p.a.
• Snowy Hydro 10,000 GWh = 10 TWh p.a.
• Largest wind farm (to be) Crookwell 5 MW power maximum, 10 GWh p.a. energy generation
• Australian Greenhouse commitment requires extra 2% = 10 TWh p.a. electricity generated by clean energy source by 2010

Future DirectionFuture Direction-- PMPM brushlessbrushless DC and SR motorsDC and SR motors
• PM brushless DC motors are more efficient (typical efficiency 90-95%) than induction motors, but more expensive.
• The cost can be reduced by using position sensor-less drive techniques and when PM materials become cheaper.
• The switched reluctance motors can be both more efficient and cheaper, but sensor-less drive still needs more work.
