9781786051875: Supergrid - Super Solution: The Key to Solving the Energy Crisis and Decarbonising Europe

Synopsis

As we live through the throes of an energy crisis this timely book sets out how electricity can finally get the world off fossil fuels, and accelerate moves to a zero-carbon world. The essential element in this transformation is setting up a supergrid to transmit vast amounts of power quickly to where it’s most needed. Supergrid – Super Solution sets out how this can be done in the European context, with Ireland playing a lead role through deployment of its vast offshore wind resources. This is in a new energy supply system delivering consistently cheaper power, all made possible by using ‘superconductor’ technology. Supergrid – Super Solution outlines: • The masterplan by a global leader in developing renewable energy with input from leading energy experts. • The solution that tears up energy history by revealing how renewable energy and a radically changed electricity grid are key to securing Europe’s energy future. • The creation of an energy revolution using superconductor cables to deliver electricity from offshore wind and solar to areas of peak demand at the heart of Europe through rollout of the supergrid – by deploying already proven technology. • Ireland’s opportunity to become a renewables exporter of green power to mainland Europe. • The special advantage for counties along the western seaboard, which is set to witness unprecedented economic opportunity because of record wind speeds in the nearby Atlantic that will be harnessed by floating turbines. • The need for courage and collective action by states and the private sector to work together in the best interests of humanity and planet Earth. Supergrid – Super Solution is essential reading for anyone interested in practical solutions to achieving net zero.

À propos de l?auteur

Dr. Eddie O’Connor is a world-renowned entrepreneur and leader in renewable energy development. He is executive chairman of SuperNode, the company he founded in 2017. He pioneered the concept of the Supergrid in response to the challenge of decarbonising electricity generation in Europe and formulated the initial proposals for it in 2001. SuperNode is a cutting-edge technology development company based in Ireland that designs and delivers superconductor connection systems to connect renewable generation and increase grid interconnection. He became executive chairman of Mainstream Renewable Power in September 2017, following nine years as chief executive of the company, which he founded in 2008. O’Connor worked for the ESB, prior to becoming CEO of Bord na Móna – and built Ireland’s first commercial wind farm in 1992 while at the helm. He founded Airtricity in 1998, which was sold in 2008 to E.on and Scottish & Southern Energy (SSE) for €1.8 billion. In 2003, he was named World Energy Policy Leader by Scientific American, and Oilprice.com cited him as one of the five most influential figures in the US clean energy sector. In 2009, he was the first ever winner of the leadership award at the annual Ernst & Young Global Renewable Energy Awards. In 2013, he received wind energy’s most prestigious award, the Poul La Cour Prize, from the European Wind Energy Association. In May 2016, he was appointed as the Global Wind Energy Council’s new Global Ambassador. O’Connor holds a Bachelor of Chemical Engineering degree and a Masters in Industrial Engineering from University College Dublin (UCD), and has a doctorate in Business Administration from the International Management Centres, Europe. He has received honorary doctorates from UCD, Maynooth University and the University of Hull in recognition of his contributions to business and science. Kevin O’Sullivan is Environment & Science Editor and former Editor of The Irish Times. He specialises in the coverage of climate change; biodiversity, renewable energy and sustainability for the newspaper and irishtimes.com. He is a science graduate of University College Dublin and has a post-graduate degree in journalism from Dublin City University.
