evening everyone this is enough – and

evening everyone this is enough – and today I’ll be retaining the feel of the

today I’ll be retaining the feel of the

today I’ll be retaining the feel of the future so today we have two main types

future so today we have two main types

future so today we have two main types of energy production renewable energy

of energy production renewable energy

of energy production renewable energy resources and non renewable energy

resources and non renewable energy

resources and non renewable energy resources so the main types of non

resources so the main types of non

resources so the main types of non renewable energy resources are fossil

renewable energy resources are fossil

renewable energy resources are fossil fuels like Google and natural gas and

fuels like Google and natural gas and

fuels like Google and natural gas and then there is uranium-235 which powers

then there is uranium-235 which powers

then there is uranium-235 which powers the nuclear power stations and then of

the nuclear power stations and then of

the nuclear power stations and then of course there is coal so the

course there is coal so the

course there is coal so the disadvantages of non-renewable energy

disadvantages of non-renewable energy

disadvantages of non-renewable energy resources are that they are limited in

resources are that they are limited in

resources are that they are limited in quantity and dep Aleut other environment

quantity and dep Aleut other environment

quantity and dep Aleut other environment which is why the goal of the 21st

which is why the goal of the 21st

which is why the goal of the 21st century is to step away from these

century is to step away from these

century is to step away from these non-renewable energy resources and move

non-renewable energy resources and move

non-renewable energy resources and move toward renewable energy resources so

toward renewable energy resources so

toward renewable energy resources so let’s look at what we have today this is

let’s look at what we have today this is

let’s look at what we have today this is solar energy and the disadvantages of

solar energy and the disadvantages of

solar energy and the disadvantages of solar energy is that they take up a lot

solar energy is that they take up a lot

solar energy is that they take up a lot of space to produce sufficient amounts

of space to produce sufficient amounts

of space to produce sufficient amounts of electricity and they require heavy

of electricity and they require heavy

of electricity and they require heavy maintenance and replacement but in spite

maintenance and replacement but in spite

maintenance and replacement but in spite of these reasons I believe that solar

of these reasons I believe that solar

of these reasons I believe that solar energy has a great potential in the 21st

energy has a great potential in the 21st

energy has a great potential in the 21st century and I’ll talk about this later

century and I’ll talk about this later

century and I’ll talk about this later in the presentation

in the presentation

in the presentation moving on we have wind energy and the

moving on we have wind energy and the

moving on we have wind energy and the disadvantages of wind energy are that

disadvantages of wind energy are that

disadvantages of wind energy are that they take up vast amount of space to

they take up vast amount of space to

they take up vast amount of space to produce sufficient amounts of

produce sufficient amounts of

produce sufficient amounts of electricity also they heavily depend on

electricity also they heavily depend on

electricity also they heavily depend on wind plus the turbines require heavy

wind plus the turbines require heavy

wind plus the turbines require heavy maintenance as birds often get stuck

maintenance as birds often get stuck

maintenance as birds often get stuck into them so wind energy is not a viable

into them so wind energy is not a viable

into them so wind energy is not a viable or a dependable source of energy to

or a dependable source of energy to

or a dependable source of energy to power our 21st century day needs moving

power our 21st century day needs moving

power our 21st century day needs moving on we have hydroelectric energy and the

on we have hydroelectric energy and the

on we have hydroelectric energy and the disadvantages of hydroelectric energy at

disadvantages of hydroelectric energy at

disadvantages of hydroelectric energy at that day rely heavily on rainwater which

that day rely heavily on rainwater which

that day rely heavily on rainwater which means that the shortage of rainwater

means that the shortage of rainwater

means that the shortage of rainwater will cause a shortage in electricity

will cause a shortage in electricity

will cause a shortage in electricity also they restrict water movement in

also they restrict water movement in

also they restrict water movement in Reverse which means that they may cause

Reverse which means that they may cause

Reverse which means that they may cause flooding in the nearby areas just

flooding in the nearby areas just

flooding in the nearby areas just disturbing the villages and the nearby

disturbing the villages and the nearby

disturbing the villages and the nearby ecosystem so this also is not a

ecosystem so this also is not a

ecosystem so this also is not a renewable this also is not a dependable

renewable this also is not a dependable

renewable this also is not a dependable source of energy to power our modern-day

source of energy to power our modern-day

source of energy to power our modern-day needs so you now you might be thinking

needs so you now you might be thinking

needs so you now you might be thinking that is our future in energy production

that is our future in energy production

that is our future in energy production bleak but the fact is that new forms of

bleak but the fact is that new forms of

bleak but the fact is that new forms of energy production are coming forth and

energy production are coming forth and

energy production are coming forth and less we are going to uncover

less we are going to uncover

less we are going to uncover discover them today so the first one is

discover them today so the first one is

discover them today so the first one is a relatively simple method of energy

a relatively simple method of energy

a relatively simple method of energy production

production

production this is solar roadways the idea is to

this is solar roadways the idea is to

this is solar roadways the idea is to place solid blocks onto the roads which

place solid blocks onto the roads which

place solid blocks onto the roads which will generate electricity the advantages

will generate electricity the advantages

will generate electricity the advantages of this technology are that they do not

of this technology are that they do not

of this technology are that they do not occupy additional space on earth as they

occupy additional space on earth as they

occupy additional space on earth as they only take up space which is being used

only take up space which is being used

only take up space which is being used by roads also they are so efficient that

by roads also they are so efficient that

by roads also they are so efficient that scientists speculate that this alone can

scientists speculate that this alone can

scientists speculate that this alone can power up to 90% of the modern-day energy

power up to 90% of the modern-day energy

power up to 90% of the modern-day energy needs which is quite a lot but moving on

needs which is quite a lot but moving on

needs which is quite a lot but moving on we have another source of energy which

we have another source of energy which

we have another source of energy which is relatively a complex method of energy

is relatively a complex method of energy

is relatively a complex method of energy production and this is all space solar

production and this is all space solar

production and this is all space solar satellites the idea is to place solar

satellites the idea is to place solar

satellites the idea is to place solar satellites into the orbit which will

satellites into the orbit which will

satellites into the orbit which will generate electricity and beam the

generate electricity and beam the

generate electricity and beam the electricity back to the Earth’s surface

electricity back to the Earth’s surface

electricity back to the Earth’s surface using waves the advantages of the system

using waves the advantages of the system

using waves the advantages of the system are that they do not occupy any space on

are that they do not occupy any space on

are that they do not occupy any space on earth also they can generate electricity

earth also they can generate electricity

earth also they can generate electricity 24 hours a day seven days a week as

24 hours a day seven days a week as

24 hours a day seven days a week as there in space sunlight is ever-present

there in space sunlight is ever-present

there in space sunlight is ever-present unlike Earth so that there are two main

unlike Earth so that there are two main

unlike Earth so that there are two main types of space solar satellites their

types of space solar satellites their

types of space solar satellites their microwave transmitting solar satellites

microwave transmitting solar satellites

microwave transmitting solar satellites and laser transmitting solar satellites

and laser transmitting solar satellites

and laser transmitting solar satellites so microwave transmitting solar

so microwave transmitting solar

so microwave transmitting solar satellites beam back the collected

satellites beam back the collected

satellites beam back the collected energy to the Earth’s surface using

energy to the Earth’s surface using

energy to the Earth’s surface using microwaves and laser transmitting solar

microwaves and laser transmitting solar

microwaves and laser transmitting solar satellites beam back the collected

satellites beam back the collected

satellites beam back the collected energy to the Earth’s surface using

energy to the Earth’s surface using

energy to the Earth’s surface using laser beams so now you might know that

laser beams so now you might know that

laser beams so now you might know that transportation takes up a major chunk of

transportation takes up a major chunk of

transportation takes up a major chunk of the total energy produced and to combat

the total energy produced and to combat

the total energy produced and to combat this issue we have a solution

so this ladies and gentlemen is the

so this ladies and gentlemen is the saltwater car and this car runs on the

saltwater car and this car runs on the

saltwater car and this car runs on the most abundant resource on earth which is

most abundant resource on earth which is

most abundant resource on earth which is salt water I speculate that this car

salt water I speculate that this car

salt water I speculate that this car will reduce transportation costs greatly

will reduce transportation costs greatly

will reduce transportation costs greatly also this car produces zero emissions

also this car produces zero emissions

also this car produces zero emissions which is a plus for the environment

which is a plus for the environment

which is a plus for the environment ladies and gentlemen I believe that this

ladies and gentlemen I believe that this

ladies and gentlemen I believe that this car is a major breakthrough and a step

car is a major breakthrough and a step

car is a major breakthrough and a step towards the field of transportation and

towards the field of transportation and

towards the field of transportation and I believe this is your future

I believe this is your future

I believe this is your future in transportation thank you

in transportation thank you

in transportation thank you [Applause]
