  1. Presentation by: Alexander Zamora, CEO, Ilion Energy S.A Symbiosis Greenhouse Presentation Energy Efficiency Lighting Sponsor:

  2. A Global Issue – Water Scarcity • With an ever increasing world population, today’s agricultural sector already consumes vast mounts our fresh water supplies and is highly dependent on inputs of fossil fuel energy for production.  However, our “modern” agricultural system is starting to face serious supply constraints. • Globally, irrigation now accounts for 70 percent of the 3,240 cubic kilometers water withdrawn for human use. • Many vegetable growers are already been experiencing issues with water scarcity and quality and have therefore started to invest in expensive water purification equipment to tackle the problem.

  3. A Global Issue – Soil Degradation • Intensive farming practices have already led to considerable soil degradation in many parts of the world.  Soil degradation is a process which is not easily reversed and once desertification occurs, almost irreversible.

  4. A Global Issue – Water Scarcity & Soil Degradation

  5. Permaculture Vs Symbiosis • Observe and interact • Catch and store energy • Obtain a yield • Use and value renewable resources and services • Produce no waste • Design from patterns to details • Integrate rather than segregate • Use small and slow solutions • Use and value diversity • Use edges and value the marginal • Creatively use and respond to change Presentation for: <company logo>

  6. Symbiosis Greenhouse – Functional Principle

  7. Symbiosis Greenhouse - Benefits • Freshwater production • No fossil fuel requirements at all • Reduced pesticide use • Land use optimization • Salt & Mineral production • Less food logistics • Lower operating costs • Better produce

  8. Other Symbiosis Greenhouse Apllications Following our design principles it is possible for our greenhouse to be customized to suit a different range of climates and needs such as: • Arctic landscapes such as those that occur in northern countries • Tundras & Taigas • Swamps & Marshlands • Semi – arid steppes

  9. Sustainability factors

  10. Epilogue We remain positive that the purpose of technology should be to reduce costs and raise the quality of the living standards for all mankind, although technology as any other tool should be used wisely and with a symbiotic criteria as far as natural resources are concerned. We believe that proper design (habitat, food production, industrial) should be done with sustainability as its prime criteria. We believe that natural design is the new paradigm. Thank You
