Turning The World’s Waste Problems Into Energy Solutions

Solar, wind, and water are the most commonly known green energies used across the world. However, with the amount of waste produced each day, engineers are constantly looking to create positive use out of our trash through waste-to-energy (WTE). Many countries including the US have been using WTEs for some time but, some have a much higher production rate which creates many issues. China, being one of these countries, has invested in the world’s largest WTE plant to cut the amount of carbon dioxide released from their landfills. As their economy and population grows, their government is transitioning to cleaner energy. Various areas have similar systems to create clean energy out of unwanted waste. These innovations will hopefully yield “a continuing shift in attitudes toward cleaner, more sustainable production” to “become the norm around the world, combining the future of waste and the future of energy”.

After months of contentious debate, Ohio nuclear bailout bill becomes law

The State of Ohio passed a bill to pay a nuclear power plant $150 million/year to keep operating. It was immediately signed by the Governor.

Yes, you read that right.

A new tax, $0.85/month on all residential customers from 2021 – 2027 is expected to generate $170 million/year.

In addition, this new law will drop the renewable requirements for utilities from 12.5% to 8.5% by 2026. But, after 2026 there is no further requirement. Yep- back to free markets.

This action is in sharp contrast to surrounding states that increased the renewable requirements for energy delivered to their residents.

Ohio chose to bail out a failing power plant at the expense of its future in renewable power.

A cyber-attack just disrupted grid operations in the U.S. But it could have been far worse.

I have experienced it, perhaps you have…your computer screen goes blank and it instructs you to call a number to get your data back.

Now imagine it on the electric grid.

A “disruption” or hack of the US grid occurred and was attributed to a basic web hack; bombarding a website with clicks. Unlike overseas, this disruption did not cause anyone to lose power… yet. Everyday the US consumes several trillion dollars worth of electricity. Any disruption would be consequential.

The federal government must stay engaged in maintaining world standards of business conduct . Utilities can and do take steps to safeguard the grid. However, unlike concluding a foreign government attempted to influence our elections, a foreign government causing a power outage would undoubtedly be an act of war.
