How the Internet can Green the Electrical Grid

[Dobydoves]

I got a power

[klinok19]

So far there were experiments on the large scale with photovoltaic farms in Spain, and Germany, and wind turbines farms in California. They were run for last 15 years. They all failed miserably. So far the technologies don't prove viable. The cost of energy storage and the maintenance is too high.

[klinok19]

This guy talk about general trends, but in particular electrifying your house with photo panels will be more expensive in the short, and in the long run than using the existing centralized theme. It's easy to calculate. What they conveniently "forget" in their calculations is the cost of the big new battery, that you would have to buy in 10 years, and maintenance cost of the system. The system includes panels, battery, power distribution unit and wiring.

ann dis vill rearrange your fyace...

SUPERLIKE

[knelledkismet]

peak oil is a lie. hydrogen from water is very viable, magnetic generators run perpetually. WHy dont pysicists realise the laws of physics have been broken several times over? oh, funding. thhe same reason the quelled cold fusion and Gen Motors electric car...criminy

WTF IS THIS NERD SHIT



[Kingomarmuhamad]

Also, at the end he says money talks. And the debt keeps rising. This goes to show that most of everyone wants money and feels they need it to survive. Have u ever asked yourself if what u want, is what others need? Or do you want something that is just temporary? our desire should not be in profits,costs,waste or alternative energies. Me and You were given life, so all we should want is to give. An eye for an eye keeps the whole world blind.

if u cant watch this 1 hour video, then u cant watch the tree grow,much less wait for the fruit that brings forth seeds. Zero is understood and overstood

[pirokosan]

I just got mind fucked and shat brix at the same time...

wtf an hour long no way i aint watching this sh*t

[PanzerDivisionBOM]

How is conventional energy conveyance "falling apart from internal and external pressure", if its alternatives are fit only to supply some niché markets, even in a state of affairs which includes billions of dollars of subsidies?

If this person really believes that he knows what he's talking about, then why is he speaking in front of his university class, instead of a gathering of investors? He should be out acquiring options for energy provision in a small area, not whining to the state for intervention.

Let him and his risk their own resources on their experimentation, and not mine and yours.

When Washington proposes a boondoggle like the housing bubble (@20:10) then tell them to stick it in their heart valves.

holy ##$% an hour long? I'm not watching this for an hour.

[Ioganstone]

oo a power point

[bmecher]

Opt out of control- change building code to go for High Efficiency Housing where it is possible for a house to use its roof, waste stream and wind to be self sufficient. Now all you need is a hook up if the house draws more than it can generate, a saftey grid tie if you will...... That would shed the residential load.

The intense use you see in a city/ industry would need the Generate- Distribute model. Now you can build Hydro, Nuke, Sunfarm, or other source for those MW's

[bmecher]

He Makes excellent points until he brings up global warming. That may be a concern, but the scientists are still doing their research. The Carbon Credits is nothing more than a politicaly driven scam, using green panic as a lever. I do agree that renewables that feed off of waste streams, plus solar/ wind are going to be a mjaor part of being energy independant.

Cheap/ simple Gravity or Pressure schemes of storage will probably beat fuel cells or other complex storage methods.

i hope the rest of you 8,651 people were as baked as i was, like 7% of this is interesting. the remaining emulsion is eerily like setting up an hp wifi printer... just sayin...

[TheQuestion8]

THIS DUDE WOULD KICK ASS AT MINECRAFT

[legion2]

I have no clue why I just watched this guy talk for a flipping hour about my industry.

He doesn't have a clue!

[04smallmj]

*yawn*

[TellinTheTruth]

imagine the "data mining"..... more control and erroding of peoples rights

[TellinTheTruth]

well, it says to me that there planning for energy problems........ interesting.

[ieatdeadbabies101]

man made global warming its bullshit scientist keep saying its the sun heating up because other planets there heating up too dont believe this bullshit green green my ass

[r0b0hobo]

@ieatdeadbabies101 "bullshit green green my ass" indeed

[MandoHaloODST]

So google owns youtube and is immune to any time limit... And this is incredibly boring and i only understand a bit of it though the guy snorting is funny. No offense, some people may enjoy this, I just don't.

[Lidarrel]

Im not watching this for an hour...

#FAIL video #FTW  #OMG it sucks

[thijsvanleeuwen]

The story of Hansje Brinker is mutch more famous outside of the Netherlands. A lot of people here dont eaven know the story althow most of us live below the sea level.

Still GREAT QUIZ!
