Current and future power generation
Friday 27/11/2009 14:30
Current and future power generation presented by Jonathan May from E-On UK.
The critical questions of how, where and from what we generate power, and how it is distributed, depend upon environmental sustainability, geopolitics, technological developments, and the availability and geographical distribution of energy sources. Our current pattern of coal, gas, nuclear, hydroelectric and wind-based power stations will have to change substantially if we are to meet future demand in a safe, secure and sustainable fashion.
This talk will describe some of the methods by which we generate and distribute power at present, and their suitability for meeting future needs. It will then examine a range of technologies for future power generation, and some of the challenges that they present.
