So that means if you wanted, literally, to produce total
energy
consumption in all forms, on average, from wind farms, you need wind farms half the area of the UK.
Here are the physics principles that tell you how to reduce the
energy
consumption of transport.
The
energy
consumption of this typical tank here is 80 kilowatt hours per hundred person kilometers.
It's 80 times better in
energy
consumption, and it's powered by biofuel, by Weetabix.
In between, perhaps some more realistic options on the transport lever are electric vehicles, so electric bikes and electric cars in the middle, perhaps four times as
energy
efficient as the standard petrol-powered tank.
Heating is a third of our
energy
consumption in Britain, and quite a lot of that is going into homes and other buildings, doing space heating and water heating.
There's this remarkable technology called a thermostat: you grasp it, rotate it to the left, and your
energy
consumption in the home will decrease.
You can also deliver heat more efficiently using heat pumps, which use a smaller bit of high-grade
energy
like electricity to move heat from your garden into your house.
The third demand-side option I want to talk about, the third way to reduce
energy
consumption is: read your meters.
I was writing a book about sustainable energy, and a friend asked me, "How much
energy
do you use at home?"
We need big action, because we get 90 percent of our
energy
from fossil fuels, and so you need to push hard on most, if not all, of these levers.
All
energy
is concentrated into a single point of
energy.
This takes energy, producing clean water.
It's probably 100 watts each person is producing, and we need to get rid of that
energy.
I need, with my body, to get rid of the energy, and the harder it is for myself, for my body, to get rid of the energy, the less comfort I feel.
And if I don't get rid of the energy, I will die.
And just by using cold water going through the water pipes, you can release the heat which is absorbed during the day in the stadium, so you can create that comfort, and then by adding dry air instead of down-chilled air, the spectators and the football players can adjust to their individual comfort needs, to their individual
energy
balance.
We don't borrow any
energy
from history.
We are not borrowing
energy
from our neighbors.
We're using
energy
we can harvest on our roofs, and also on the training pitches, which will be covered with large, flexible membranes, and we will see in the next years an industry coming up with flexible photovoltaics, giving the possibilities of shading against strong sun and producing electric
energy
in the same time.
And this
energy
now is harvested throughout the year, sent into the grid, is replacing fossils in the grid, and when I need it for the cooling, I take it back from the grid and I use the solar
energy
which I have brought to the grid back when I need it for the solar cooling.
And I can do that in the first year and I can balance that in the next 10, and the next 20 years, this energy, which is necessary to condition a World Cup in Qatar, the next 20 years, this
energy
goes into the grid of Qatar.
And I also hope that you share the idea that if engineers and designers can use all these different climatic parameters, it will be possible to create really good and comfortable outdoor conditions, to change our thermal perception that we feel comfortable in an outdoor environment, and we can do that with the best passive design, but also using the
energy
source of the site in Qatar which is the sun.
And these electrons, while flowing, they collide with the atoms, and in these collisions they lose a certain amount of
energy.
And they dissipate this
energy
in the form of heat, and you know that effect.
However, inside a superconductor there are no collisions, so there is no
energy
dissipation.
In classical physics, there is always some friction, some
energy
loss.
Well, first there are strands of magnetic field left inside, but now the superconductor doesn't like them moving around, because their movements dissipate energy, which breaks the superconductivity state.
But we can also store
energy
using superconductors, because we have no dissipation.
So I wanted to develop something that we could develop very fast, that would be cheap, and that would be open-source, so, because oil spills are not only happening in the Gulf of Mexico, and that would be using renewable
energy.
