The 10th International Conference on Energy, Resources, Environment and Sustainable Development (ERESD 2024)

One day every human being will be able to have as much energy as they need for enjoyable work and happy life, without harming the planet Earth that sustains us. The renewable technologies developed over the last 30 years can be sustainably and economically scaled-up to generate sufficient energy for all future human needs. Missing are the technologies to transport and distribute the free energy coming continuously from Sun to the ten billion humans of tomorrow.
This presentation will outline a possible power electronics solution for achieving the sustainable energy abundance by transporting the energy from renewable electricity generation through a global network of undersea and underground electrical HVDC lines connected by electronic energy routers. The new electronic power belt, could collect energy from wherever the sun is shining and wind is blowing and deliver it instantly, at the speed of light, to customers anywhere around the world. Just as we are now using Internet to talk and look at each other anywhere around the world.
