2 Why? Why do we need improved growing systems? Page 2
3 We all are sitting in a very comfortable Space Ship so far! Page 3
4 In Space Ships smoking is strictly forbidden! Smokers: Page 4
5 Smoking can have bad consequences Air Pollution and CO 2 - Increase: Page 5
6 First Symptoms are already clearly visible Global Warming: Page 6
7 Climate change destroys growing space Increasing temperatures: Page 7
8 Positive feedback loops are further raising the global temperature Methanhydrates are instable: Page 8
9 positive feedback loops Melting Permafrost: Page 9
10 And, limited resources are jeopardizing food security! Peak Oil: Page 10
11 The current decrease of cheap oil production is a very severe danger for food security! Oil production forecast: Page 11
12 Slowly, also the oil companies are waking up Shell: Page 12
13 The price of oil is strongly increasing Trend: $/barrel 36 $/barrel Oil price increased by 20% per year! Page 13
14 The Competition between Food and Energy is forcing this Situation!! Food or Energy? Page 14
15 The Food Price is increasing according to the Oil Price!! FAO Food Price Index: Page 15
16 A drastic impact on our world society is expected soon! German Military: Page 16
17 The food production dramatically depends on oil! Oil dependend food production steps: Cultivation Fertilization No Oil Irrigation Harvest Drying No Food! Processing Storing Packaging Logistics Page 17
18 The basic needs of the world society are in danger and have to be secured! Maslow Pyramid: In Development Countries Individual Fulfillment Appreciation and Acceptance and even more in High Developed Countries!!! Sozial Needs Security Physical Basic Needs (Water, Food, Health) Page 18
19 Confirmation about the world s situation Asahi Glass: Page 19
20 What? What can we do? Page 20
21 Local and autonomous Integrated Food and Energy Systems (IFES) are providing a way out First good approaches (FAO): Integrated Food and Energy Systems (IFES) are farm models for the production of food and energy at the same time and at the same place. IFES Type 1: Physical coexistence Food and energy plants are cultivated at the same field (example: Pea and False Flax, lat. camelina sativa); IFES Type 2: Closed loop systems By-products and residues are the resources of the following process steps (example: corn, cattle, biogas, digestate back to the fields); Page 21
22 Interesting Facts! Light Intensity: The sun provides 1,000 W/m² The plants require only 250 to 350 W/m² Too much light inhibits plant growth! Page 22
23 A new Approach increases now the Efficiency of Food and Energy Production Cooking Recipe for an IFES of Type 3: Create controlled environment conditions by minimizing the heating and cooling loads; Use highly transparent cover material; Use Photovoltaics solar systems to provide shade and to control optimized light conditions for plants; Convert surplus solar irradiation direct into usable energy; Expand photoperiod in northern latitudes (light); Implement Aquaponics to lower the systems heating and cooling loads and to increase its food production; Page 23
24 The Aquaponic Solar Greenhouse is such an IFES of the new Type 3 Ingredients: Greenhouse Structure Greenhouse Cover (F-Clean) Multi-functional Photovoltaics PAR Light Film Sulphur Plasma Lamp Page 24
25 A controlled environment requires a space with low thermal loads Chinese Lean-to-Greenhouse: Page 25

36 The PAR Light Film increases the output of Greenhouses without additional energy demand Sun Light Spectrum: Plants mainly use Blue and Red Light for Photosynthesis, Green Light is less used! How to make the Green Light usable for Photosynthesis? Page 36
37 At poor Light Conditions PAR Light will be amplified without electricity ETFE PAR Light Curtain: Page 37
