Why Do We Have to Reinvent Energy?
![Page 3: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Why Renewable Energy?• Huge amount of energy available
• A 5 billion year lifetime
• Drastically cleaner than non-renewables
• Widely distributed around the planet
• Many technologies available and affordable
• R&D providing even more options
• Decentralized technology-more jobs and security
• Non-renewable energy is rapidly depleting, and is destroying the planet.

Renewable Energy Solves the Problems Created by Non-Renewable Energy
• Balance of trade deficit from oil• Cost of military to provide oil security• Relative security of decentralized energy systems• Escalating price and competition for non-
renewable energy sources• Pollution health impacts and costs substantially
reduced• Global warming threatens trillion dollar losses to
the US economy• Creates efficient infrastructure, manufacturing and
many millions of jobs

Hydropower
• In the U.S, hydropower provides 8-10% of the total electricity, but 81% of the renewable electricity generated.
• The U.S. has 75,400 MW of installed hydro capacity, (half of its total hydro potential), and about 21,000 MW of pumped hydro storage for peaking.
![Page 32: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Hydro Potential
• Small-scale hydro (< 30 MW) may be able to contribute considerable energy to the grid since many existing dams may be retrofitted to produce electricity. There would be little additional environmental impact.
• Only 860 out of 6,356 large dams, and only 2744 out of 75,200 dams in the US, produce electricity.
![Page 35: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Hydro Pumped StorageOffers possibilities to store renewably-generated electricity from intermittent sources like solarand wind. Why not use any existing dam for renewable energy storage?

Geothermal Heat Pumps Are Not a Panacea
• Most cost effective if used for heating and cooling• Installed household cost may be $30,000 or more.• Most easily done with new construction. • Electricity still needed to run the pumps. A COP
of 3 and a power plant efficiency of 30% provides little savings of fossil fuels. Emissions now come from coal electricity plants. Electrical cost to run pumps may be high.
• Not all sites are easily fitted with ground or well-based heat transfer coils
![Page 50: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Biomass
• Currently supplies 3% of all energy in US, but 47% of all renewable energy(wood, hydro major source)
• Globally, biomass provides 14% of all energy consumption.
• Biomass consists of wastes (agricultural and forestry waste, waste vegetable oils, and municipal solid wastes) and field and forestry crops (such as trees, grasses, corn, wheat, soybeans)
• Claims made for producing potentially 30% of total energy in the US.

Examples of Worldwide Use of Biomass
• Ethanol from sugar in Brazil
• Wood for cooking in many LDC’s
• Dung for cooking in India
• Manures used for biogas production
• Forestry wastes in Sweden
• Biodiesel in Europe
• Charcoal production from forests

![Page 55: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Biomass Limitations
• 20% of US area is cropland; 30% woodland• Collection of diffuse sources of biomass• Fossil fuel inputs into production of
biomass• Competition with other uses of biomass• Environmental consequences – overuse of
soils, pesticide contamination, fertilizer runoff, water use, biodiversity loss
![Page 56: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Biomass Policy
• Local wastes to be used for local consumption• Minimize fossil fuel inputs• Maximize net energy• Minimize air pollution• Minimize greenhouse gases• Provide economic benefit• Minimize systemic impacts – food, exports and
health
![Page 57: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Where Do We Start?• Efficiency is almost always cheaper than supply
• Reduce demand through lifestyle changes with energy conservation
• New renewable supply? Which ones and how much, how quickly?
• Little time to turn around GHG emissions
• Systemic impacts are very important.
• Motivation – Will we recognize the urgency of the problem in time? Will we act in time?
![Page 58: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
History – Previous Failures Government programs for new energy
technologies don’t have a very good record!
• Nuclear power(1950’s) – too cheap to meter
• Fusion power (1940’s) – still 50 years away
• Synthetic fuels (1970’s) – provide cheap oil
• Alternately Fueled Vehicles (1980’s) - how many?
• The Diesel Hybrid (1990’s) – where is it?
• Are we about to add ethanol, new nuclear power and hydrogen to the list?
![Page 59: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Ethanol
• Produced from corn• 1.4 billion gallons (1998) to 8 billion
gallons (projected 2008). Bush goal to 35 billion gallons by 2017 (10 fold over current production)
• By 2017, it could replace 13-15% of gasoline but will require 30% of all cropland.
![Page 60: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Corn for Transportation
![Page 61: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Achieve Petroleum Independence?
• If we were to go beyond the 2017 goal to produce 50 billion gallons of ethanol per year, we would need half of all farmland, and would displace about 1.6 mbd (million barrels per day of oil). We would reduce our our dependence by 1.6/21 or 7.6%. Our projected increase in consumption by then would exceed this.
![Page 62: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Good for the Economy and Consumers?
• Ethanol is so heavily subsidized that it will wind up costing well over $10 per gallon.
• $5 billion subsidy to grow corn
• $11.8 billion subsidy to produce ethanol
• $3 billion local, state, tariff subidies
• $14 billion food cost increase
• $2.5 billion blending tax credit
![Page 63: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
So What is the Cost of Ethanol?• Over a year, we will expend at least 36.5
billion dollars to produce about 5 billion gallons of ethanol.
• $36.5 billion/5 billion gallons = $7.30 per gallon. Plus you will still spend $2.50 or $3 per gallon to buy it.
• The ethanol is a great boon to corn farmers, to the ethanol manufacturers, and to the car manufacturers.
![Page 64: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Good for the Environment?
• Ethanol use will lead to an increase of perhaps 7% in NOx and VOC’s (air pollution – ground level ozone and increase in GHG’s)
• Net energy is small because of the large fossil fuel inputs into agriculture and ethanol production
• Environmental impacts will be large
![Page 65: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
What Is the Hydrogen Economy?
• An oxymoron?• Hydrogen is not an energy source• Hydrogen is locked up chemically in water,
biomass, natural gas and petroleum. It takes as much energy to release the hydrogen as you could possibly get back (First Law of Thermodynamics). Because of energy losses, you will not get back as much energy as you put in.
![Page 66: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
What Is an Energy Carrier?• A form of energy that is an intermediary in an
energy transformation• Electricity is the most used energy carrier today.
Gasoline, methanol, ethanol are carriers too. Hydrogen is a energy carrier.
• Desirable characteristics - easily transported, can be made from many sources of energy, easily transformed to useful end use forms of energy, easily stored
![Page 67: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Hydrogen Economy
• A society where hydrogen is used extensively, being produced from energy sources, stored, distributed and then converted to other useful forms of energy (like electricity, mechanical kinetic energy, and thermal energy). In a hydrogen economy, hydrogen is an important intermediate form of energy in the energy conversion system.
![Page 68: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
The Hydrogen Energy System
• The hydrogen “system” must consist of at least 4 parts. It is a major infrastructure change.
• Source of Hydrogen
• Storage of Hydrogen
• Distribution of Hydrogen
• Conversion of Hydrogen
![Page 69: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
The Source of Hydrogen?
• Initially, demand for H will be small so large centralized systems could not be built. But we could have
• merchant H gas (from reforming)• Decentralized reforming of natural gas• Decentralized electrolysis of water• Ultimately, more centralized systems might
be cheaper once demand is high
![Page 70: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Possible Storage Technologies
• Compressed H gas cylinders
• Liquefaction of H
• Metal hydrides
• While these methods have been used with test vehicles, many doubt that these will be suitable for consumers.
• Carbon container storage?? A possibility
![Page 71: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Transporting Hydrogen
Indirectly:Transport natural gas and reform to HUse electricity and electrolyze H Directly:Truck H in pressurized containers or as a
cryogenic fluidTransport by hydrogen pipeline (best with
centralized production schemes)

Barriers to Hydrogen Economy
• Technical - development of technology at a scale consistent with the scale of the energy system (small-scale decentralized, large- scale centralized, or some combination)
• Economic - mass production costs, existing and historical energy subsidies
• Social/Political - obstacles to change and new infrastructure, vested interests
• Alternatives – EV, hybrid EV

Nuclear Power – The Solution?
![Page 79: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Nuclear Power - Fission
• 103 nuclear plants currently produce about 18% of U.S. electricity
• No new nuclear plants have been ordered in the U.S. for the last 30 years
• Because nuclear plants do not directly put out CO2, nuclear expansion is sometimes claimed to be a clean, emissions-free climate solution
• Substantial Federal subsidies are now being offered to build new nuclear plants
![Page 80: Reinventing Energy in the 21 st Century Dr. William J. Makofske Professor Emeritus, Ramapo College FDU University, ISE/CHRMS November 21, 2008](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052509/56649d265503460f949fcc4f/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Long-Standing Obstacles to NuclearPower Expansion
• Cost – the most expensive way to generate electricity
• Radioactive waste – disposal issues unresolved• Accident potential – reactor accidents could
release significant radioactivity• Nuclear Proliferation – nuclear power and nuclear
weapons development interconnected• Economic risk – inability to finance reactors• Uranium fuel cycle – numerous impacts from
mining, pollution• Uranium resource – limited supplies unless
breeder reactors are used generating plutonium

Is Nuclear Power a Solution to the Global Warming Issue?
• Expensive - Money invested in nuclear could provide much greater CO2 reductions invested elsewhere
• Bypasses the free market system so need massive public investment
• Highly risky since any of the long standing problems could derail its development
• Nuclear power is not clean or climate-friendly if you look at the entire uranium fuel cycle
