Association Webinars: The Unpopular Truth... about Electricity and the Future of Energy



  

 

This webinar introduces the concept of energy return of investments (eROI), often referred to as net-energy returns, and discusses fundamental challenges of variable renewable energy, as well as the implications. The discussion covers the raw materials required as well as other environmental aspects for today's and tomorrow's energy systems. The presenter has 20 years of commodity background, has lived and worked in Asia, North Americas, Europe, and Africa, and recently published a book on the same subject.

It is a thought-provoking presentation that will stimulate a dialog on the key assumptions behind the energy transition. Lars will conclude with suggestions about the future of energy.
