MAN HISTORY
• Early human forays into the Middle East from Africa around 100,000 to 150,000 years ago.
• These early settlers were replaced by Neanderthals in the region about 80,000 years ago.
• Possible triggers for migration : increase in population, a change in diet, the acquisition of language and climatic change.
• Around 40,000 years ago, grip of Ice Age loosened, temperature became warmer, humans moved into Central Asia and multiplied quickly.
08/06/10 [email protected]
…MAN HISTORY
• 35,000 years ago small groups of people left Central Asia for Europe. Cold temperatures kept them there.
• They became paler and shorter than their African ancestors.
• 15000 years ago, one small clan of arctic dwellers followed the reindeer herd over the Bering Strait land bridge to North America.
08/06/10 [email protected]
…MAN HISTORY
• Some time in the past, random mutations, which can happen naturally and be harmless, marked a new begging.
• Climate changes may have coaxed humans out of Africa and encouraged Neanderthals already living there to spread outward into other parts of Asia and southeastern Europe.
• But a climatic reversal also could have turned the tables.
08/06/10 [email protected]
…MAN HISTORY
• Europe and Northern Asia were experiencing a cool era at that time, and even hearty Neanderthals probably would have found the warmer climates to the south enticing.
• “They pushed back probably from the Caucasus region to the north, and drove the humans then living there into retreat” Bar-Yosef suggested.
• Only a second advance by humans thousands of years later—one that was more permanently successful—ultimately settled the question of which species would prevail.
08/06/10 [email protected]
CLIMATE FACTOR
• A major mystery in the story of human evolution is how climate affected the environment where creatures that regularly walked upright—the hominids—first emerged.
• One widely accepted theory holds that after the ape and hominid lineages split, the earliest human ancestors were forced into the expanding tropical grasslands of the African savanna after the continent's thick forests dwindled as a result of climate change.

CHRONOLOGY OF OIL DISCOVERY AND USAGE
• 450 B.C : Herodotus described oil pits near Babylon. • 325 B.C : Alexander the great used flaming torches of
petroleum products to scare his enemies.
• 1264 : Marco Polo recorded visiting the Persian city of Baku, on the shores of the Caspian Sea in modern Azerbaijan, he saw oil being collected from seeps for use in medicine and lighting.
• 1814 : One of the first wells that produced oil which was marketed was drilled near Marietta, Ohio
08/06/10 [email protected]
…CHRONOLOGY OF OIL DISCOVERY AND USAGE
• 1895 : Invention of combustion engine.
• 1896 : Henry Ford's first motorcar.
• 1908 - Oil discovered in Persia, Anglo Persian Oil company formed (Later became British Petroleum, BP).
• 1938 - Oil discovered in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.
• 1939-1945 - World War II - control of oil supply from Baku and Middle East played a huge role in the events of the war and the ultimate victory of the allies. Cutting off the oil supply considerably weakened Japan in the latter part of the war.
08/06/10 [email protected]
…CHRONOLOGY OF OIL DISCOVERY AND USAGE
• 1951 : Anglo Iranian Oil Company nationalized.
• 1954 : Anglo-Persian Oil Company renamed British Petroleum. • 1979-1981 : Oil prices rise from $13.00 to $34.00.
• 1986 : Chernobyl - Nuclear power plant accident. • 2003 : (Aug 14) - Major electrical failure causes blackout in
New York State and Ontario.
08/06/10 [email protected]
…CHRONOLOGY OF OIL DISCOVERY AND USAGE
• 2004 (July) - US oil imports at a record 11.3MMBO per day.
• 2004 - (Nov) George Bush re-elected President in USA.
• 2004 (Oct 25) - Oil at a record price of $55.67 US per barrel on concerns over high demand and possible supply disruptions in the Middle East and damage on the Gulf Coast from Hurricane Ivan .
• 2008 (Jan 2) - WTI oil price briefly touches US$100 per barrel for the first time driven by supply concerns and the weak US dollar.

Is an Oil economy Sustainable?• In the long run, an economy that utilizes petroleum as a
primary energy source is not sustainable, because the amount of oil in the Earth’s crust is finite.
• The history of energy use is largely one of substitution. In the 19th century, the world’s primary energy source was wood.
• Around 1890, wood was replaced by coal. Coal remained the world’s largest source of energy until the 1960s when it was replaced by oil.
• No one can predict the future, but the world contains enough petroleum resources to last at least until the year 2100.
08/06/10 [email protected]
The above graph shows the Hubbert predictions in 1956 which shows the estimates of the oil production in the future which is compared with the actual production.
08/06/10 [email protected]
The world average oil production per capita from 1920 to 1999. The curve represents the ratio of world oil production (O) and world population (Pop): i.e. ô = O/(Pop) in barrels per capita per year (i.e. b/c/year). Note well that ô grew exponentially from 1920 to 1973. Next, growth was negligible from 1973 to the all-time peak in 1979. Finally, from its peak in 1979 to 1999, ô decreased at an average rate of 1.20% per year. (i.e. from 5.50 b/c in 1979 to 4.32 b/c in 1999)
08/06/10 [email protected]
• World average energy production per capita (ê) grew significantly from 1920 to its all-time peak in 1979.
• Then from its peak in 1979 to 1999, ê declined at an average rate of 0.33 %/year.

• High heat capacity working fluid (usually Hydrogen)
• The age of petroleum is coming to an end, and the future is dangerously insecure.
• Oil demand will shortly exceed the production capacity of even the largest suppliers. The world economy is moving towards an uneasy transition.
• The open question is when the peak oil usage occur. Can the world renewable and green sources of energy be able to continue the industry in the same way as it is at present.
• Global warming is an engineering problem, not a moral crusade. Until we solve the problem, it's hypocrisy to pretend we can stop.

Remarks:
• Accepted age for the Earth and the rest of the solar system is about 4.55 billion years. It took billion of years to produce world oil, gas and coal reserve.
• Recorded history of Homo Sapiens is about 5000 years old.
• For 5000 years, man used wood , wood charcoal , wind and water power .
• Since the industrial revolution, man has been using coal.
• Man has been using oil for one hundred years. How long would it last?

…Remarks:
• Man has been present on earth : 5000/4000000=0.1%
• Man has been using energy : 5000/100000=5%
• Man has been using oil : 100/5000=2%
• Results: Man has populated the earth and exhausted it resources.

INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
What are the Benefits of Distributed Generation Systems ?
• Installation near to the local loads.
• Power losses of distribution network can be reduced by reducing the power flow in the transmission lines.
• On-site standby power systems during grid outages
• Peak load shaving
• Modular structure makes system expansion easy. e.g. fuel cell-micro turbine or micro turbine-battery systems.
• Combined heat and power (CHP) applications.

Germany Solar Initiative
• The "Feed-in Law" in Germany permits customers to receive preferential tariffs for solar generated electricity depending on the nature and size of the installation. Under the new tariff structure introduced in 2004, the base level of compensation for ground-mounted systems can be up to 45.7 euro cents/kWh. PV installations on buildings receive higher rates
of up to 57.4 euro cents/kWh.
08/06/10 [email protected]
Germany Solar Initiative
• The Feed-in Law fixes tariffs for approved renewable energy projects for a 20-year period from the plant commissioning and will apply incremental price cuts. Tariffs were initially set at 48.1 cents per kilowatt hour for solar energy, 8.6 cents per kWh for wind, from 9.6 to 8.2 cents per kWh for biomass, 8.4 to 6.7 cents per kWh for geothermal and 7.2 to 6.3 cents per kWh for hydropower, waste and sewage gas.
• The Feed-in Law requires that the tariff paid for solar electricity be reduced by 5% per year, and by 6.5% per annum for ground-mounted systems.

Germany Solar Initiative
• Some 20,000 solar electricity systems yielding an output of about 145 Megawatts (MW) were installed in 2003, almost twice the volume installed in the previous year.
The total solar electricity capacity in Germany is now estimated at over 400 Megawatts. Germany saw slow growth in 2006, but still remains by far the largest PV market in the world.
08/06/10 [email protected]
Germany Solar Initiative
968 Megawatts of PV were installed in Germany in 2006. The German solar market generated total revenues of over 800 million euros in 2003.
The German PV industry generates over 10,000 jobs in production, distribution and installation. Over 90% of solar PV installations are in grid-tied applications in Germany. The balance is off-grid (or stand alone) systems
