“Engineering and Socio-Economic Aspects of Sustainable Energy and Transportation”
Abstract: There is plenty of hydrocarbon resource energy available on earth, for hundreds of years. The urgency of sustainable energy and transportation problem is from prolusion, global warming, and equitable access to energy for all humanity. The way forward is to help the developing world (90% of the population that dominates the future emissions) with “clean” energy, rather than making the developed world clean (the 10% solution). This has to be done by appropriate technologies, consistent with sound business plans, and market economy.
This presentation offers the engineering and economic foundations of the above proposition. Case studies and example technologies from the author’s group at Texas A&M University will be presented as specific illustrations.
