Held every year with representatives from most countries this week lets dive deeper examine the impact they have youre watching eco india and on some of that are coming to you from mumbai the Indian Government has signed the patters 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. Donny hamlet of one was barely 100 kilometers away from indias Business Capital in mumbai but until just a few years ago it had no concept of electricity. Its residents relied on far as their main source of power like an energy. Things changed for one wasi in the summer of 2016. So let us know where dad was once documented now there is light everywhere and this village we could have never imagined this. In the nearby villages the government. Comes and goes. That theyve been laid here we have access to electricity thank you for saving. Money so that you have it that they would say this is quite unbelievable but it always does anybody when they later on as i get these i mean its out. Today one of aussies able to address the daily and energy needs of its 265 residents with an uninterrupted supply of power generated through its ready solar microgrid. Wishing to ensure visits a smooth operation to its daily mundane and also troubleshooting. So at the very early on and then you are not sure if this would ever get in the past a lot of cities have made. But once they left home none of them were going to finish it that means that any that could have gotten a. Owing to its extremely small population when wasi does not fit into the governments calculations of what constitutes a really good. And instead it just. Could oculus together with discounted gloster for the hamlets in the district of maharashtra. This means that despite the Indian Governments ambitious 100 person Electrification Program electricity. Through the National Public grid has never properly reached such remote communities. To close this gap some united go founded. In 2008 in these kind of it is a problem is the cost of taking the grid to these areas for a small load and this is a small number of households it becomes a bit of a tangent there are a large number of such hamlets an electrified while official figures suggest india is inching closer to 100 percent household electrification the challenge to bring clean and affordability extremely remote house remains largely unaddressed the social enterprise droids access to electricity through Renewable Energy models. Only if they want to actually install this project having seen it and im willing to put their initial money willing to you know create a bank account Village Electrification Committee get an energy from the local well and then becoming the solar power as a storage in the battery bank while overhead transmission lines make sure that electricity is brought to every household. The total cost of this installation was 3000000. 00 rupees or 37000 years. At the graham who john has successfully set up solar microgrid in 65 remote villages. These decentralized micro grids unknown and owned and operated by local communities with each household being judged according to usage. Can he is part of one was the stern member village and as you can miti it and shows that the grid grounds effectively and is responsible for invoicing the house rules. Im leaving when i get to work out in the last week of every month a committee holds an editing them discussing the building and the status of us even as a sailor jacket is sometimes a custom i was unable to bring up in a wooden one monday late in the allow them to be done with the next months bill but if it still paid off to pay my we would demand the money and tell them if they dont help them if they like to see the supply house bill will be cut off in a sense and either but this does not happen until today the sale of the fund a con you dont care a little. Apart from electrifying house was the microgrid also delivers the fog right. The sort of fall it has had and the daughter didnt stress for the family and boss. Ok about me to do it by now and ive got to face what do we have to walk all the way to the red barn and getting that no one was taking care of the kids but at that it took us a lot of time. Often i didnt have time to even make food or any human. Body again id have gone it. Not a solar powered bomb supplies water to wear down to have. A fat life that little alley. When there was no electricity a dam like a fight ahead of. Me but now we can socking only in my mind i got there before sometimes a little bit and then he calmly came i used to purchase my like those of couse you know every month which was very expensive and he said what if we had electricity or the i phone would have been there to slow down. The microgrid has made a substantial change to life in buses as the new power and light bring in. You opportunities for its residents and though. It could be safe to see the many problems to sort when it comes to Climate Change india could biggest economy of asia for example is great not as fast as the last decade but it is growing rapidly and this means the country needs 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 spiral the country has been drawing considerable attention towards how it is going to increase Energy Access while maintaining its commitment made of the battles Climate Summit 2 words to do you think emissions from the perspective primary energy mix of the country you will see that the energy scene of the country is predominantly dominated by coal and then the emerging star in the you know do you see you know as up close the. Making major disruptions in the Energy Resources the awful country sure you know were at the moment when you combine hydro power its summer its possible sureness back to the future not 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. Answerable strides in the Solar Energy Sector but the Transition Towards Clean Energy does not inevitably suggest a simultaneous phasing out of the countrys dependence on fossil fuels. Now its very difficult for you nor the government or even for that but i would. Very dependence on fossil fuels in dark regard what we have to do is we have to take over the graduated approach wherein we bring the renewables in you know more. And we freeze our fossil fuels you know mano where you know your economic targets. Lord know in the expectations of the industry you know taken care of but at the same time you are not kind of. Disrupting the energy market. 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 decline investment. We can all agree that fossil fuel based energy is one of the biggest causes of Climate Change but is Renewable 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 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 fill called straight 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 come. From renewables. Its all there in nature we dont need to take any energy from fossil sources underground plenty is given to us every day we just have to make use of it. Milled fullscreen it produces 8 times as much electricity as its 2600 residents can use all that electricity isnt produced in one big plant paternity centralized fashion and its then made available to others fire the grid. Delegations from the places around the world marked by flags who have come to inspect this revolutionary village. They usually welcomes by on. Hes been married for 23 years and has been involved in the shift to renewables from the start. Line in 1909 we asked everybody here how things should be and 2021 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. Girls basically theyve done it themselves. We can tote other i become thinking and thinking i dont know. The villagers have invested 50000000 euros over the past 2 decades in 300 photovoltaics systems 9 Wind Turbines as well as several hydroelectric 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 country of course it has to make economic sense so if it is a profit and we save money and were doing something positive for the environment thats doubly good. But i dont know if thats not really stop and go to. Another father of the green revolution a very cold street is vandal 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. To 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 like the river and if theres no good we still could go. Another father of the green revolution or fill whole street is fine dylan i mean. 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. Eyen siegler 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 and cross from 20 nearby farms. They replace 700000 liters of heating oil a year. 98. 00 less as Generating Energy from biomass alone point be enough to complete the transition to renewables at the National Level sun wind and hydro power are also needed. There mixed in 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 sweet could also be generated in other communities districts and states. And were going then on the rise 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 are needed for days when the wind drops or the sun doesnt shine. Or when demand is higher than usual. Theres no known 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 tissue but they say its cloudy here but the sun is shining in hamburg then 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 same. Was to approach the great operators and offer to help them stabilize the grid its not stop you its a high. Price a power sharing could perhaps one day make the large Utility Companies and the huge power plants redundant. Hundreds of thousands of communities what the way if it ports fade 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 Analyst 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 and morocco. 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. Kuster rica is also in the 2 degree club the small Central American country aims to be climate neutral by 2021 part of that drive involves cutting emissions of the Greenhouse Gas natures 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 will be looking at a 4 degree increase china is also the earths biggest Greenhouse Gas in matter 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 say go being the worlds huge and increasing appetite for it is essential avoid the devastating effects of Climate Change but is that an option to hope that we could just stop Meat Consumption worldwide are this the scene of a alternatives in place in barcelona in spain a high. Innovation we found a startup developing a substitute for meat produced by a 3 d. Printer. Varies a way off from managing the resources upon a planet which is not sustainable. There is a big changes when the Food Industry is impacted very much so for example its china as a me the class that once more Meat Consumption and we want to provide even their governments of china and india with their inner peace for their population. To engineer the seante wants to spark a food revolution with plant based protein and a 3 d. Printer. To start up nova meat is working on technology to replicate the Sensory Properties of meat. This process creates special michael filaments in this microfilm is try to mimic henri sambo what is actually in the muscles in my mouth story because. Theyre the tissue of a name is very complex is created in a years very organized way and so. In our case with all the simplification we found that certain patterns was able to order these micro fibers as if they were muscular fibers and when the technologies radio and when the scale is rated we will provide a proper food that has that back sure that period that taste itself and is better for about. Writes the code for the program and has just designed his 1st steak well design it is quite easy now and we have to make it real which is the hard part to create a sure the structure. Is quite easy but the pretty one is its pretty hard. So why go to all the trouble when we think about the way we are to. It that its quite complex now how we have to go of the crop that will feed the car window and then the car out 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. From a bit of us. We are just combining the right ones and putting that together with the printer. The printer uses a mix from rice and pizza 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 can go lower than actually. Still there are the energy costs to think about. We use talking at Room Temperature and now weve got much pressure we dont control in the you mean that youre seeing the machine is quite simple and we believe would be more efficient more so in terms of energy costs should be around 95 percent more efficient in terms of both of the new choir less water required and less enough guess which. President we are tearing down forests to plant the crops to feed the animals that 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 beat it comes down to people like you went on to make some noise about the safety of our planet the people of climate conferences off the board are our representatives attempting to solve possibly the biggest crisis of the next 100 years i hope you will make your voice heard to well be back next week once again until then the dot.
