Inhaltsangabe

As we live through the throes of an energy crisis this timely book sets out how electricity can finally get the world off fossil fuels, and accelerate moves to a zero-carbon world. The essential element in this transformation is setting up a supergrid to transmit vast amounts of power quickly to where it’s most needed. Supergrid – Super Solution sets out how this can be done in the European context, with Ireland playing a lead role through deployment of its vast offshore wind resources. This is in a new energy supply system delivering consistently cheaper power, all made possible by using ‘superconductor’ technology. Supergrid – Super Solution outlines: The masterplan by a global leader in developing renewable energy with input from leading energy experts. The solution that tears up energy history by revealing how renewable energy and a radically changed electricity grid are key to securing Europe’s energy future. The creation of an energy revolution using superconductor cables to deliver electricity from offshore wind and solar to areas of peak demand at the heart of Europe through rollout of the supergrid – by deploying already proven technology. Ireland’s opportunity to become a renewables exporter of green power to mainland Europe. The special advantage for counties along the western seaboard, which is set to witness unprecedented economic opportunity because of record wind speeds in the nearby Atlantic that will be harnessed by floating turbines. The need for courage and collective action by states and the private sector to work together in the best interests of humanity and planet Earth. Supergrid – Super Solution is essential reading for anyone interested in practical solutions to achieving net zero.
