Energy • Petroleum for energy – banned in 2035

• Solar extraction; direct, wind, tide, hydro ~50%

• Limited renewable

• CO2 generation is highly restricted

• Nuclear is ~50%

• New fission recently implemented – finally!

Solar

• Solar has many facets Direct Wind Renewable agricultural; wood, biofuels Other

Thermal Extraction• Energy from oceans

Tidal

Thermal – heat removal reduces storms

• Subterranean generators

• Thermal energy storage

• Heat cells convert thermal to electrical

Most energy is now FUSION; the “air engine” Nitrogen gas is the fuel. The by-product is oxygen.

Jet and piston engines have been retrofit and carry NO fuel or combustibles
