ROADMAPS FOR TRANSITIONING ALL 50 U.S. STATES AND 139 COUNTRIES TO WIND, WATER, AND SOLAR POWER FOR ALL PURPOSES
Global warming, air pollution, and energy insecurity are three of the most significant problems facing the world today. This talk discusses the development of technical and economic plans to convert the energy infrastructure of each of the 50 United States and 139 countries of the world to those powered by 100% wind, water, and sunlight (WWS) for all purposes, namely electricity, transportation, industry, and heating/cooling, after energy efficiency measures have been accounted for. Results showing the ability of the grid to remain stable at low cost under 100% WWS conditions are also provided.
