1 Global Energy Supply and Use

2 The Sun: Source of Earth’s Energy The Sun is the primary (> 99%) source of heat for the planet Direct Indirect: –Wind –Water moving –Biomass Commercial Energy: the remaining ~ 1% energy –Mostly from extracting and burning non-renewable fossil fuels

5 Commercial Energy Uses? Transportation, Heating, Industry, and Electricity Generation –These are not the same –Substitution not always practical/possible 84% from non-renewable The future does not look much different…

14 NET Energy: the energy that matters Takes energy to make energy Net = (total energy in resource) – (energy needed to find, extract, process, deliver Could also present as a ratio: –Net Energy Ratio = (useful energy produced)/(useful energy used to produce) Obviously, this ratio should be > 1 Now, let’s take another look at the previous slide
