Are held every year with representatives from most countries this week lets dive deeper them in the impact they have you know watching equal india and im someone coming to you from mumbai the Indian Government has signed the paris climate agreement and plans to change its energy mix 50 Percent Renewable Energy by 2022 is the and solar power plays a big role in achieving this. One its barely 100 kilometers away from indias Business Capital mumbai but until just a few years ago it had no concept of electricity. Its residents relied on far as their main source of food like an energy. Things changed in the summer of 2016. And that is where their loved ones are now there is light everywhere and they. Have never imagined this. In the nearby villages the government. Comes and goes. That here we have access to electricity thank you for saving. Money. This is quite unbelievable but it always does anybody have got these i mean its out of. Today one of aussies able to address the daily and energy needs of its 265 residents with an uninterrupted supply power generated through its solar. Microgrid. Wish to ensure visits a smooth operation to its daily mundane and also troubleshooting. So that they let you know im going to l. A. And if any are even not sure if this sort of thing in the past a lot of cities have made as a long answer but once they left home none of them were going to find it if that means that that money that could have gotten a. Owing to its extremely small population when was he does not fit into the governments calculations of what constitutes a really good. And instead it is awfully fond of good oculus together with disgust at gloucester for their hamlets in the district of maharashtra. And the. This means that despite the Indian Governments ambitious 100 person Electrification Programme electricity to the National Public grid has never properly reached such remote communities. To close this gap some united cofounded. In 2008 in these kind of images the problem is the cost of taking the going into these areas for a small node and this is a small number of becomes a bit of a challenge then a large number of the time later to an electrified while official figures suggest india is inching closer to 100 percent household electrification the challenge to bring dream and Affordable Energy extremely remote house remains largely unaddressed the social enterprise prochoice access to electricity through Renewable Energy models. No need they want to actually install this but i think having seen it and i willing to put that initial money willing to. You know create a bank account little equivocation going to get an annuity from the local one to one of them becoming the solar power is a story just in the battery bank while overhead crossed mission lines make sure that electricity is brought to every household and. The total cost of this installation was 3000000. 00 rupees or 37000. 00. Its at that graham who john has successfully set up solar micro grades in 65 remote villages. These decentralized micro grids unknow and dolly owned and operated by local communities with each household being judged according to such. Reading gone hes part of one was the stern member village and educate me it and shows that the great guns effectively and his response of the fire and voicing to house leaders. I mean. In the last week of every month our committee holds an eating then discuss the bill and the status of our savings a sewer capital sometimes a customer has an evil theory of who would have won money and we allow them to hear that within the next month bill little but if its still on paid off to keep in mind we will demand the money place and tell them if they dont pay out that they literally supply the house bill will eat out of the levy but this does not have until today the sale of the fund. I dont care a little. Apart from electrifying households the microgrid also delivers the flog him in. The solar power has had to leave a lot of didnt stress for the village and boss. Again i mean to do it by man i. Do very much water we have to walk all the way to the rail barn and you think that no one was taking care of the kids but at that it took us a lot of. Often i didnt have time to even make food and you know. But again i had a chronic. Not. Supplies. That life that. When there was no electricity i would so kind of a down like a fight ahead of. Me but now we can Start Cooking only and mom and i got there before so i dont know a little bit and then he. Came i used to purchase my like those of kerosene every month which was very expensive and he said well if wed had electricity or a little life i would have been there. The microgrid has made a substantial change to life in denver as the new power and light bring in many new opportunities for its residents and though. It would be safe to see the many many problems the source when it comes to Climate Change india could biggest economy for example is great not as fast as the last decade but it is growing rapidly and this means the country means a lot of fuel and energy. India is one of the Top Energy Consumers in the world and its Energy Demand is only likely to spider the country has been drawing considerable attention towards how it is going to increase Energy Access weidman training its commitment made of the baddest Climate Summit towards deducing emissions from the primary energy mix of the country. You will see that though energy scene of the country is predominantly dominated by cool and then the emerging star in the you know the scene as up close the new it is making major disruptions in the Energy Ecosystem of our country renewable at the moment so when you combine hydro power its big summer its contribution is back to the field of somewhere around 7 percent. In keeping with its commitment india has set itself a target of increasing its Power Generation capacity to renewables up to 40 percent by 2030 investments of 300000000000 euros will be needed over the next decade. While there are concerns over the country being able to meet its targets the government of india has declared assurances of being on track. Currently wind energy has the largest share of installed capacity within the Renewable Energy mix however the coming years will see some considerable strides in the Solar Energy Sector but the transition to was clean energy does not inevitably suggest a simultaneous phasing out of the countrys dependence on fossil fuels. Now its very difficult for you know the government or even for the private kind of shared very dependence on fossil fuels in that regard what we have to do is we have to take a very graduated approach wherein we bring the renewables in in a more freeze manner and we phase out fossil fuels in a manner where you know your economic targets and the lord know in our expectations of the industry are also you know taken care of but at the same time you are not kind of. Disrupting the energy markets. Today india is producing the worlds cheapest solar power since 2010 set of costs fell by 80 percent the most prestigious decline of any country but continuing to meet the Rising Energy hunger of the population will require investment. We can all agree that fossil fuel based energy is one of the biggest causes of Climate Change but is variable energy really a feasible alternative is one of the most common questions that comes up what if there isnt enough sun on a particular day of water if the wind isnt Strong Enough a community in the south of germany didnt just ask these questions they tested it out hands up with success. This is the night train from berlin to the far south of germany its going to be a 12 hour journey to. A village in the foothills of the alps thats famous for pioneering the transition to green energy. None of its energy comes from fossil fuels all of it comes from when. Its all there in nature we dont need to take any energy from fossil sources on the ground plenty is given to us every day we just have to make use of it. Produces 8 times as much electricity as its 2600 residents can use all that electricity isnt produced in one big plant paterniti centralized fashion and its then made available to others fire the grid. Delegations from the places around the world marked by flags who come to inspect this revolutionary village. They usually buy on. Demand for 23 years. And has been involved in the shift from the start. Line in 1909 we asked everybody here how things should be in 2020 wind energy was just one of the many different issues 92 percent said they were in favor which was a sensational result. People here are very proud of whats been developed in basically theyve done it themselves. We can quote. Become thinking and thinking of. The villagers have invested 50000000 euros over the past 2 decades in 300 photovoltaics systems 9 Wind Turbines as well as several hydro electric and combined heat and power plants. We want to show that it is possible to create a regional circular economy for Energy Production and energy use this. Of course it has to make economic sense so if it erodes a profit and we save money and were doing something positive for the environment thats doubly good. But i dont know if theres no did we stop and go to. Another father the green revolution of poultry it is fendel and i know. Hes a farmer who started experimenting with Renewable Energy in the 1990 s. He soon won over his fellow villagers and set up a wind farm cooperative. Anyone who lives in the community where a windmill is located can invest the more people join the lower the amount each may invest its currently 5000 euros and no more any higher amount and we have too much money everybody keeps asking when are we going to build another wind turbine. I know has set up for bio gas plants on his farm they now heat the entire village. He designed some of the components himself the Energy Sources are all local animal waste from 20 nearby farms. They replace 700000 liters of heating oil a year. Says Generating Energy from biomass alone point be enough to complete the transition to renewables at the National Level sun wend and hydro power are also needed. With the mix and with the right mix it wont be hard to attain 100 Percent Renewables and many people dont believe that but its true the amount of clean energy we produce in a very pod sleet could also be generated in other communities districts and states. And were going to be the number one cause of the. Energy generation is one key factor to others are Energy Storage and developing an intelligent grid so power can be moved to where its needed. Energy reservoirs and needed for days when the wind drops or the sun doesnt shine. Or when demand is higher than usual. This is all in company and addresses both these issues it makes lithium ion phosphate batteries which in combination with solar panels enables households to become largely energy independent. It also manages an electricity sharing system it costs so on and community. Runs the force or does your critics say its cloudy here but the sun is shining in hamburg. When our customers in hamburg have energy in abundance. Their batteries are fully charged and they feed the excess into the grid which can then be used by our customers here their link to via our zone and community that was the 1st step the 2nd was to approach the grid operators and offer to help them stabilize the grid. Private power sharing could perhaps one day make the large Utility Companies and the huge power plants redundant if hundreds of thousands of communities went the way of it pulled straight and set up Autonomous Energy generation and sharing systems. One small village in bavaria could inspire other people across germany and in other countries. The global temperature rise needs to be limited to 1. 00 to 2. 00 big recession at a maximum thats what was agreed in the paris climate agreement in 2016 but countries around the globe how much has happened since then lets take a closer look at the status report. Which countries are doing the most to protect the climate and whos not pulling their weight the Analysts NetworkClimate Action tracker has compiled a ranking. The only countries on course to meet the 1. 00 degrees celsius limit the goal of the Paris Agreement are gambia america. In 2018 morocco completed one of the worlds biggest solar power plants. The north african country plans to produce over 40 percent of its energy from renewables. If everyone followed indias example Global Warming could at least be held to 2 degrees its massive Tree Planting programs are having a positive effect india has committed itself to ensuring that over one 3rd of its areas forested to help absorb c o 2. Kusturica is also in the 2 degree club the small Central American country ems to be climate neutral by 2021 part of that drive involves cutting emissions of the Greenhouse Gas nurturers oxide from its coffee bean production fertilizers are responsible for most of those emissions. The country hopes to cut their use by training farmers to use the chemicals more efficiently. And. If the whole world behaved like the e. U. Temperatures would rise by 3 degrees the German Government is now planning to introduce Carbon Pricing on Gasoline Heating Oil and gas. But critics say a price of 10. 00 euros per tonne is far too low and they say that across the e. U. The switch from coal to renewable should be happening a lot faster. If every country followed in chinas footsteps wed be looking at a 4 degree increase china is also the earths biggest Greenhouse Gas emitter responsible for about a 3rd of all emissions despite a shift to solar power chinas economy remains heavily dependent on coal. And according to Climate Action tracker Global Warming would exceed 4 degrees if everyone were to follow the example of the u. S. It has announced that its pulling out of the paris climate treaty though many u. S. Cities and states are keen to do their bit to fight the climate crisis. But all in all the effort to curb Global Warming has to happen on a global level. Scientists goal being the worlds huge and increasing appetite for it is essential to avoid the devastating effects of Climate Change but is that an option to hope that we could just stop Meat Consumption worldwide are there sustainable alternatives in place in barcelona in spain. Innovation we found a startup developing a substitute for meat produced by a 3 d. Printer. Varies a way off for managing the resources upon a planet which is unsustainable. Greece big changes when the Food Industry is impacted very much so for example is china as a me the positive ones more Meat Consumption and we want to provide even their governments of china and india with alternatives for their population. To engineer just wants to spark a food revolution with plant based protein and a 3 d. Printer. The study of nova meat is working on technology to replicate the Sensory Properties of meat. And in this process creates special michael filaments and his microfilm is try to mimic henri sam but what is actually in the past was in story of the chickens. And the tissue often aim is very complex is created in a years very organized way and so. In our case with this investigation we found that. But theres was able to order this micro fibers as if they were muscular fibers and when the technologys radio and when the scale is rated we will provide a proper food that has that back sure that beer is that taste is healthy and is better for about. Writes the code for the program and its just designed his 1st steak well designed it is quite easy now and we have to make it real which is the hard part to created sure the structure. Is quite easy but thats really one its its perhaps. So why go to all the trouble when we think about the way we are produced. It that its quite complex know how we have to go of the crop that will feed the car window and then the car how we have to manage to convert the protein from the crop so the cow thats for me thats complex. Thats not that complex because we are taking Natural Ingredients we are taking our property. From a visit of ours. We are just combining the right ones and putting that together with the printer. The printer uses a powder mix from bryson petes which require a fraction of the water needed to produce speech and this we can state as without all the lent and the added costs of raising and slaughtering livestock which will surge if everyone in the world starts eating meat regularly. Its not real meat but its designed to taste just like it. Ultimately affordability will be the key to its success once you really have a different start ups or Different Companies bringing this to a supermarket you will lead a price which we go lower than actually. Still there are the energy costs to think about. We use talking at Room Temperature now weve got much pressure we dont control in the unit you see in the machine is quite simple and we believe it could be more efficient also in terms of energy costs should be around 95 percent more efficient in terms of both the less than the acquired less water required and less gas emissions. Present were tearing down forests to plant the crops to feed the animals that end up on our plates. Finding a way to feed people and protect the planet is one of the great challenges of our time. At the end of the big it comes down to people like you when not to mimic some noise about the safety of our planet the people of climate conferences after all are our representatives attempting to solve possibly the biggest crisis of the next 100 years i hope you will make your voice heard too well be back next week once again until then the back.
