and the Technologies to use it. Tina Kaarsberg, PhD House Science Committee, Energy Subcommittee Tina.Kaarsberg@mail.house.gov For For Producing Energy: The Emerging Technologies Organized by theNanoscience Exchange November 11, 2004 The Biggest New ‘Source’ of Clean Energy — —Local Recycled Energy
2
Local enables more use of all fuels Peak Demand Capacity 28 (Losses) Power station fuel 100 70 ( Losses including T&D ) Electricity CHP fuel Heat 30 55 Heat Boiler fuel 83 183 GRID BOILER CHP 100 48 (Losses) Separate Heat & Power Combined Heat and Power (Typical industrial onsite efficiency)
3
Peak Demand Capacity Transmission Capacity vs. Demand Use of Local energy reduces the need for more transmission infrastructure
4
Other Biomass Gases 111 MW, 1% US Operating Recycled Energy Capacity 2002 by Source of Waste Energy --Total 9,328 MW Black Liquor, 3577 MW, 39% Wood Waste Solids, 2447 MW, 27% Other Gases, 1258 MW, 13% Blast Furnace Gas, 926 MW, 10% Landfield Gas, 877 MW, 9% Waste Oil 74 MW, 1% Wood Waste Liquids, 35 MW, 0% Other Biomass Solid, 25 MW, 0% We already recycle energy in many ways.
5
We already recycle energy in many states! We already recycle energy in many states! --Total 9,328 MW
6
We could easily recycle a lot more energy Peak Demand Capacity Gasturbine Process Heater Residue Gasification - Petroleum Refining EPSI - VOC Control Black Liquor Gasification Natural Gas Pressure Recovery Turbines Back-Pressure Turbine - Industry Steam Injected Gasturbine (Cheng Cycle Gas Turbine - Drying Landfill Gas Recovery Residue Gasification - Other Industries Municipal Wastewater - Anaerobic Digestion …… …Organic Rankine Cycle Fuels Cells in the Chlorine- Alkaline Industry Advanced Cogeneration - Iron & Steel Back-Pressure Turbine - District Heating Flare Gas Recovery Pressure Power recovery Agriculture - Anaerobic Digestion Industrial Wastewater - Anaerobic Digestion 100 GW Potential NOW
7
Policy Options to Promote Local Recycled Energy Use The Bully Pulpit Expand Systems R&D –on heat recovery technologies (incl. nano) and –fuel clean up and use (including nano) Add Recycled Energy to a Renewable Portfolio Standard Train & Develop Energy Services Workforce.
