Powering The Third Industrial Revolution




Kandeh K. Yumkella, UN Under-Secretary-General, Secretary-General’s Special Representative and CEO, Sustainable Energy for All Initiative
The greatest sustainability challenge, or perhaps most exciting transformative opportunity, the world faces today is how to power the third industrial revolution while simultaneously avoiding the catastrophic impacts of global warming.

In the next two decades almost 3 billion more people will move into the middle class. As a result, they will want better housing, more televisions, more cars, more food, more water, more energy and more of everything. At the same time, many studies show that we are approaching planetary boundaries, and resources (including food, water and energy) will be scarce to meet this growing demand for goods and services. The Third Industrial Revolution (TIR) is now emerging based on the integration of new renewable energy sources with Internet technology in post-carbon energy economies. This is taking place simultaneously with revolutionary digital manufacturing technology and a focus on green industry. In other words, the third new industrial revolution is about achieving sustainable production and consumption. As United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon notes, the challenge is how to grow economies and spread prosperity, while keeping the earth’s thermostat below a two degrees temperature rise

Record number of oil and gas firms go bust as renewable energy revolution begins to bite
The world’s largest private power production company warns the sector that renewables could drive the oil price as low as $10 a barrel

A record number of oil and gas companies became insolvent last year, according to a new study which environmentalists said highlighted the need for the UK to prepare for the move to a low-carbon economy.

They warned that the loss of jobs in the sector when it becomes clear that fossil fuels can no longer be burned because of the effect on global warming would lead to “desolate communities” unless people were retrained to work in the “new industries of the 21st century”.

Recent advancements in energy storage technology could finally make renewables, such as wind and solar, truly viable economic alternatives to fossil fuels when it comes to generating power. The ability to store power bridges the reliability gaps that occur with renewables, when, on any given day, the sun just doesn't shine bright enough or the wind doesn't blow hard enough to feed the hungry power grid.

So what is this amazing new technology? It’s batteries – yes, batteries.

Energy storage is being touted by many energy industry analysts as the key to achieving a global transition to clean energy, by incorporating storage technology and flexibility into future smart grids and into homes. The latest report from Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF), the New Energy Outlook 2016, has backed up this believe with forecasts that the global battery market will skyrocket over the coming years, as demand will force the prices down.

Looking at the entire global energy industry, BNEF’s report sees encouraging signs in the energy storage market, which inspired expectations of a market valued at $250 billion or more by 2040. In the shorter term, BNEF expects 25 GW of storage devices to have been deployed over the next 12 years, which, the BNEF analysts pointed out, is about the same size as today’s rooftop PV industry.

We are at an inflection point when it comes to the deployment of clean technology and renewables. Goldman Sachs is targeting $150 billion to finance and invest in companies that promote clean technology and renewable energy, and we are committed to helping to develop market-based solutions to environmental challenges.

How Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries work
Vanadium redox batteries are based on the ability of vanadium to exist in four different oxidation states (V2+, V3+, V4+, and V5+), each of which holds a different electrical charge. The electrolyte in the negative half-cell contains V3+ and V2+ ions, whilst the electrolyte in the positive half-cell contains VO2+ and VO2+ ions.

The VRFB technology utilises the flow of this vanadium electrolyte separated by an ion exchange membrane. A reversible electrochemical reaction allows electrical energy to be stored and subsequently returned. The system works much like the everyday rechargeable battery but on a much larger scale.



CEO McGregor. “We have had plenty of interest from prospective customers. We want to focus on getting the initial 12 systems out there.” The Jabil tie-up, which is a long term collaboration, is an interesting one in that it provides third party validation of the technology. It also reveals the ambition of both sides as the US firm will be looking to mass produce units for sale around the world – so obviously believes REDT has legs. “Interestingly, they found us,” said McGregor. “Jabil had a team searching storage globally because they wanted to get into the market. They decided they wanted to go into flow batteries. “After carrying out due diligence on number of companies they decided to go with us.”

Another world bank project which Camco have close working links...


MAPUTO, March 1, 2017─Families of the little village of Damo in the Moamba District, some 90 kilometers away from the capital of Mozambique, remember the times when firewood and kerosene lamps were the only sources of light to illuminate the interior of their homes. With World Bank support to the Government of Mozambique’s Energy Development and Access Project (EDAP), life in this and many other villages across the country have changed dramatically in recent years.

“My life is not the same anymore,” said Laura Chissico, a resident of Moamba district who recalls how life has changed for better. “Now that we have electricity, we have been able to earn 5,000 to 7,000 MTs (about $60 to $100) a month from the sale of ‘badjias’ and other cookies. We even started to use a conventional oven that allowed us to diversify our products and expand the business.”

Amazon turns warehouse roofs into solar power stations
Fifteen warehouses with solar panels will crank out 41 megawatts of power -- and mean you won't have to pay as much for Amazon services.


The e-commerce behemoth said Thursday it's installing solar panels on 15 fulfillment centers this year, enough to generate up to 41 megawatts of power, and plans to expand to 50 of its sites by 2020.

The move is good for Amazon and the planet, said Dave Clark, senior vice president of worldwide operations, in a statement. "This is good for the environment, our business and our customers. By diversifying our energy portfolio, we can keep business costs low and pass along further savings to customers," he said.

Amazon also has invested in a lot of renewable energy generated by wind turbines already.

TAIPEI (AFP) - More than 1,200 people were evacuated from a Taiwan water park after solar panels caught fire in the midst of a heatwave that has seen record power consumption as the island struggles to keep cool.

Local media reported the fire in Taipei - which left a swathe of solar panels at the park blackened and distorted - could have been sparked by soaring temperatures.

The mercurcy hit 38.5 deg C for two consecutive days on Wednesday (July 27) and Thursday (July 28), the second-highest temperature ever recorded for July.

Solar panels can overheat and catch fire, so the uk may not be that bad of a place for solar in the years to come....

[dlg3] 03/3/2017 17:43

So Britain could in fact be the best place for solar, with the above technology...

Scientists from China just unveiled an "all weather solar cell" that could turn even gloomy weather into glorious electricity by generating energy from raindrops.

In a paper published by the Angewandte Chemie Journal, the scientists explained that by cloaking traditional solar panels with a thin layer of graphene — a highly conductible carbon material first discovered in 2004 — the new panels can actually break down the salt found in rain on a subatomic level.

In fact, I'll just let the experts at Science News Journal explain the nitty-gritty details of this game-changing technology:

“The salt contained in rain separates into ions (ammonium, calcium and sodium), making graphene and natural water a great combination for creating energy. The water actually clings to the graphene, forming a dual layer (AKA pseudocapacitor) with the graphene electrons. The energy difference between these layers is so strong that it generates electricity.”
Got that? Basically, we might not need ideal weather conditions to generate solar power.

According to the study, covering 4% of the Himalaya’s high potential region with solar panels, which is approximately 12,000 square kilometers (7,460 square miles) could generate all of China’s electricity. China consumes the most energy worldwide. It consumed 4,190 Terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity in 2010. The United States consumed 3,741 TWh that year.

According to a new study, some of the coldest geographic locations on earth have the best solar power generation potential if using photovoltaic panels.

Some of the regions include the southern Andes and the Himalayas.

The two main reasons why some of the coldest regions on earth have the best solar power generation potential are:

They are at high altitudes, which are exposed to more sunlight.
Some types of solar cells (the electricity-generating part of solar panels) generate electricity more efficiently at cold temperatures. Traditional silicon wafer solar cells are affected by heat more than others and, like all solar panels, are exposed to reasonably high temperatures all day long.
I should also add that, according to a study, heat from solar radiation (sunlight) is what degrades solar cells as well as the transparent panels that they are protected behind, and more so than any other environmental factor by far. Heat is almost the exclusive destroyer of solar cells. Because solar cells do not exhibit any measurable degradation without much heat, it is reasonable to assume that they will last longer in colder climates.

Well you just need to capture a couple of minutes of the sun's energy to satisfy all man's requirements for the whole duration he'll exist on the earth. Your couple of hours worth of enrgy for a year's worth refers to the amount of the sun's energy falling on the earth.

A necessary but not sufficient condition would be the storage delivering 55GW peak, and say an average of 25GW for 14 hours to meet winter evening requirements. That's just for the tiny area making up england and wales. So get some specs for batteries and see how many are required and at what cost just for this tiny area.

[alchemy] 03/3/2017 14:08

After all if we captured two theoretical hours of sun a full year's worth of requirement is met so how many practical hours do we need?

[alchemy] 03/3/2017 14:03

Easing into the subject. I am wondering if we overspecced PV and Vanadium too what percentage of national needs could be met, effectively from the nuclear reactor in the Sky.
