4. Objectives for the Course: Provide a basic foundation regarding the language, technology, and science of energy. Develop skills needed for quantitative analysis of problems related to energy. Encourage you to develop skills needed to acquire, assess and analyse information related to energy. (of course, we also hope that much of this practice will also find application in other aspects of your studies).

5. Energy Issues in a nutshell: What is Energy? How do we find it, measure it, use it, store it, etc.? What is the science behind it, and how does that interplay with the economics? What technologies are coming online to change the way we deliver or utilize energy? What technologies might become available in the future? http://www.pickensplan.com/ http://www.pickensplan.com/media/?bcpid=1640183817&bctid=1651750502

6. Adding numbers requires the right UNITS!! This sign makes no sense, you can’t add years and people!

7. U.S. Energy Flow, 2005 (Quads) U.S. Energy Flow, 2005 (Quads) 7  85% of primary energy is from fossil fuels; 8% is from nuclear; 6% is from renewables.  Most imported energy is petroleum, which is used for transportation.  The end-use sectors (residential, commercial, industrial, transportation) all use comparable amounts of energy. http://www.eia.doe.gov/overview_hd.html

14. Possible sources for first article summary These could also be starting points for your term paper (or later article summary)

17. Exponential Growth/Decay Time rate of change of X is PROPORTIONAL to X itself “ y Proportional to x” => y=rx (r is a constant) For our case here: dX/dt=rX (if you like calculus) [if not, then just skip to the answer below!] Solution to this is: X=X o e rt ln(X) = ln(X o ) + rt

19. U.S. Wind power since 1995 (mQuads energydelivered/year) From EIA website Annual Energy Report: 2007 20.7% annual growth DATA FIT

20. A subtle point “Annual compounding” is not the same thing as “continuous compounding”, so you have to be a little careful with how you discuss annual growth rates. True exponential growth with a rate of 7.5%/yr for two years gives an increase of: X=X o e 0.075/yr*2yr =1.162*X o An “annually compounded” interest rate of 7.5%/yr gives: X=X o *(1.075) 2 =1.156*X o i.e. e 0.075 is not exactly equal to 1.075 (it’s really 1.07788, so it is slightly bigger). The difference between the two cases is greater if you consider greater periods of time.
