3.2 deg C Expected Global Warming natural and anthropogenic factors natural factors
The first effects of Global Warming
What we can do? One possible solution is distributed cogeneration Uneffective centralized system of power generation 35% of energy utilised at home Conventional fuel or biomass 60% production loss 5% transmission loss 90% of energy utilised at home Distributed cogeneration: effective heat & power production in mini- & micro - CHP 10% production loss LOCAL COMBINED HEAT AND POWER PLANT IN SMALL SCALE CHP PLANT
NEW IDEA: SMART GRIDS = LESS PRODUCTION, MORE INTELLIGENT MANAGEMENT MICROGRID MICROGRID MICROGRID INTELLIGENT HOUSES VIRTUAL POWER PLANTS CHP APPLICATIONS WHAT WE NEED?
MODEL FOR POLAND ECO ENERGY SECTOR THE BIGGEST CIVILISATIONAL CHALLENGE of XXI CENTURY FOR POLAND & FOR EUROPE J. Buzek, President of the European Parliament, at Ecoforum in Polkowice, Poland 2009 2020 MODEL FOR POLAND: 70 15-15 COAL RENOWABLE NUCLEAR COAL, RENOWABLE & NUCLEAR POWER SHOULD NOT & CANNOT BE RIVALS SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNOLOGIES
Surprising!! Potential of polish energy agriculture TRENDS for POLAND until YEAR 2020 FAST TRANSFORMATION OF 2-3 MLN ha of WASTE LANDS (10-15% of FARM LAND) 1.5 MLN ha of CORN YIELDS 7.5 BLN M3 of BIOMETHANE, EQUIVELENT of CURRENT POLISH IMPORTS of NATURAL GAS RENEWABLE ENERGY from BIOMASS 78%, WIND and HYDRO 22% Biomass will be most important factor in polish green energy
