Sweden is able to recycle 99% of their trash, some of which they burn. Why isn’t this practiced in the United States?

99 Per Cent Of Sweden’s Garbage Is Now Recycled
http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2014/09/02/sweden-recycling_n_5738602.html
“There’s a “recycling revolution” happening in Sweden – one that has pushed the country closer to zero waste than ever before. In fact, less than one per cent of Sweden’s household garbage ends up in landfills today.”

The sensible Swedes burn a lot of their garbage. Why can’t we?
http://www.slate.com/articles/business/the_juice/2014/07/wte_in_sweden_weirdly_enough_burning_garbage_makes_environmental_sense.html
“The Swedes generate a decent amount of garbage, just like everybody else-465 kilograms per capita of waste in 2010, or about 1,070 pounds per person. Aggressive recycling programs that hoover up about 50 percent of the country’s waste have helped radically reduce the amount of junk going to landfills.”

Energy Recovery from Waste
http://www.epa.gov/waste/nonhaz/municipal/wte/
“Energy recovery from waste is the conversion of non-recyclable waste materials into useable heat, electricity, or fuel through a variety of processes, including combustion, gasification, pyrolization, anaerobic digestion, and landfill gas recovery. This process is often called waste-to-energy.”

Air Emissions & Clean Energy
http://www.epa.gov/cleanenergy/energy-and-you/affect/air-emissions.html
“Although municipal solid waste includes renewable resources, its use as a source of energy has been met with controversy.”

Michael and Michelle were very involved with the design of their Passive House. They wanted a house that was beautiful, but also very energy efficient. Their beautiful bungalow uses less energy than it makes (net positive). “We can heat and cool the house with less than you’d use for running a hairdryer!”, says Michael. Using Passive House principles they were able to build a house that was efficient with space, efficient with energy, and would allow them to pass a positive sustainability message onto the next generation. See a tour of their beautifully quiet and comfortable Passive House!

Video Rating: / 5

Buildings represent approximately 40% of American carbon emissions. As the climate crisis worsens, building owners are now thinking about their energy use in completely different ways as many race to achieve carbon neutral operations. This talk will go through the current cutting edge of energy efficiency in buildings, onsite renewables and storage, building electrification and offsite power procurement with the goal of charting the path to net zero emissions related to energy consumption.

Building large-scale renewable energy projects demands time, money, human capital, and risk tolerance. Most renewable projects would never be built without the involvement of third-party debt and equity investors. Understanding the essential assets, financial attributes and risks associated with renewables projects is prerequisite to an understanding of renewable project financing. It also provides insights into public policies, consumer preferences, economies of scale and other macro topics that will influence the future of renewables. With this overview in mind, we will address the following questions:

What are the most common types of financings available for utility-scale wind and solar energy generation projects?
At what points in a project’s life cycle do financings come into play?
What assets are necessary for these financings, and what economic incentives and considerations shape these investments?
What are “offtake agreements”, and what role do they play in a project’s operations and financings?
What is “tax equity financing”, and how do the federal “Production Tax Credit” (for wind) and “Investment Tax Credit” (primarily for solar) benefit renewable projects?

What are the macro drivers of new renewables investments, and what opportunities exist to expand renewables?

Water — so essential to us all, and yet it still has the potential to further impact our lives in important and positive ways. Hydroelectricity goes by many names — “hydroelectric energy,” “hydropower,” or just plain “water power” — but don’t let that trip you up. It all boils down to harnessing the force of moving water. In this video, you’ll learn interesting hydropower facts and how water power works. Isn’t it amazing how something as simple as water can offer us clean, renewable energy to power our homes, businesses and communities sustainably? We certainly think so!

Transcript:

Renewable Energy 101

Water covers 71% of the Earth’s surface and is vital to our daily lives. It can also be a clean, renewable, reliable source of electricity.

Hydroelectric energy comes from capturing the force of moving water that’s in our Earth’s rivers and oceans. We do this by using the movement of the water to spin hydraulic turbines. That generates kinetic energy, which is converted to electricity through a generator and then sent to the power grid.

Most hydropower is generated from dams built on rivers and streams, often where there’s a big drop in elevation so gravity can help us out. Dams block the water’s natural flow and force it through a large pipe with the turbine and generator before releasing it back into the stream on the other side of the dam. Today, we know that dams — most of which were built before the 1960s here in the U.S. — can disrupt river ecosystems. There haven’t been many new hydro plants built in the U.S. in a few decades, but some existing dams are beginning to be tapped for their electricity-generating potential, and existing hydro facilities are being upgraded to be less harmful to plants, fish and wildlife. This helps us get the electricity we need by protecting the natural environment around us. Now that’s a win-win!
