  1. OUR VISION: To enable Massive Scale Sustainable Energy Initiatives that will generate the next vibrant economy while protecting our planet for future generations to enjoy. Together, We can. “Sustainable Energy Initiatives: Global Impact, Local Opportunities

  2. Global Energy Impact Overview: • Why the world needs to move towards disruptive massive scaling of Sustainable Energy Initiatives (SEI). • invVEST : Global SEI Leadership thru’ Massive Scaling • Converting Global Energy impact into local opportunities • invVEST Virtual Market Place & How you directly benefit from supporting the initiative

  3. Energy Use: Global Impact Steady Economic Growth in USA & OECD Europe CAUSES… ……increased demand for Energy … adapted from EIA databases OECD Europe have similar GDP/Capita profile as USA Yet, USA Consumes 54% more energy/capita OECD Europe: 06 pop. 400M 1990 to 2030 practically flat 2000 GDP: $11T 2030GDP: $16T USA ‘06 pop. 307M 3rd in 1990 to 3rd in 2030 Quadrillion Btu

  4. Energy Use: Global Impact Rapid Growth in Developing Countries China will consume more energy than USA by 2020 & by 2030 will consume 155 Quadrillion Btu, 30% more than USA USA ‘06 pop. 307M 3rd in 1990 to 3rd in 2030 CHINA‘ 06 pop. 1,280M 1st in 1990 to 2nd in 2030 Quadrillion Btu India is a non player as far as current energy generation trends and pollution it causes globally.

  5. Energy Use: Global Impact SOURCES OF ENERGY EFFECT GHG Emissions China exceeded USA in total CO2 emissions by 2008 and will emit double of USA by 2030 1st in 1990 to 2nd in 2030 QBtu ‘06 pop. 1,280M ‘06 pop. 307M 3rd in 1990 to 3rd in 2030 Energy Consumption in Quadrillion Btu

  6. What this means is by 2050- 2100 at the current trend rate of greenhouse gas release: There is a 99% probability the Global Temperature will rise by 3 degrees Celsius or 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit There is a 50% probability the Global Temperature will rise by 5.5 degrees Celsius or 10 degrees Fahrenheit The world will see severe environmental impact that may be irrevocable There is a 10% probability the Global Temperature will rise by 10+ degrees Celsius or 18 degrees Fahrenheit High likelyhood of Environmental Calamity impact that will be irrevocable The “FAT TAIL” For a more complete presentation please refer to “Carbon Dioxide: What is Earth’s Point of No Return?” Alexander E. MacDonald, Director, NOAA ESRL See VSNI website: Data& Links & NOAA website for more .

  7. Countries with Leading Renewable Energy Initiatives& 2007 USA Energy Consumption Profile Hydropower: Norway 98% of electric 60% of total energy needs Wind & Solar: Germany Wind installed: 22.2 GW Solar PV Installed: 3.8GW Nuclear: France 70% of electric 39% of total energy needs USA is a poor second on all Renewable Energy components when compared to OECD Europe While still being the first by a huge margin for Fossil fuels. Bio fuels: Brazil 40% of Transportation fuel 11% of total energy needs

  8. Germany Solar Energy I KW panel Produces 947kWh/yr 1 KW panel Produces 1530 kWh/yr 40 -70% more • USA & Germany: A Perspective: • Land Area: USA has 26 times more land mass & 1,000 times free/arid land space. • Sun Radiance: SW corner of USA (5 times larger than Germany) has 40 - 60% more sun radiance. • USA GDP is 4 time more than Germany • Yet, USA installed a mere 340MW of Solar PV compared to Germany’s 1,800MW in 2008. USA should have deployed 8,000MW to be on par • What is wrong with this picture?

  9. Understanding the Exponential Size of the Pie for the Solar Energy Opportunity: Total energy from Sun falling on earth surface Total energy need of the world Total energy need of the world Current Solar Energy generated as % of total energy needs Solar Energy generates less than 0.05% of total global energy. If solar energy generates 25% of global energy, it needs to scale 10,000 times, creating a $3 Trillion Solar Energy Market. Focus on slicing the pie or make the pie exponentially bigger through massive scaling? Total energy needed globally is 100,000 times less than the amount of solar energy falling on earth.

  10. UNDERSTANDING THE FRAMEWORK FOR THE invVEST VISION & PURPOSE GLOBAL ENERGY ECONOMY REACHES TEN TRILLION $ 2030. 60% CAN BE SEI WILL CREATE BILLION+ JOBS TACKLE CLIMATE CHANGE We use energy in almost anything we do Energy drives economy USA NEEDS TO REGAIN GLOBAL LEADERSHIP IN SEI TO MAINTAIN VIBRANT ECONOMY COLORADO IS THE NEW ENERGY ECONOMY HUB LEAD BY EXAMPLE WHAT’S IN IT FOR US? invVEST Virtual Market Place

  11. What is invVEST? invVEST stands for: invest in Energy that’s Sustainable thru’ Virtual Teams. invVEST sole purpose is to enable Global Leadership in Sustainable Energy Initiatives for USA through Massive Scaling. invVEST will be a technologically & politically agnostic nonprofit organization made up of virtual clusters of thought leaders who are well verfocused on deploying initiatives that fulfills its purpose.. invVEST will enable Close Collaboration between diverse thought leaders from public and private sectors in vertical and functional clusters. invVESTwill work with all other associations & organizations who are involved directly or indirectly with Sustainable Energy Initiatives. invVESTis focused on exponentially increasing the pie size for SEI.

  12. The invVEST team has identified Three • Sustainable Energy Initiatives for Massive Scaling. • BreakThrough Solar Energy: Generate at least 20% of total US energy consumption by 2030. Drive price below power parity. • Garnering Education Community Support for Massive Scaling of SEI: Involving the Students and Faculty of Schools, Colleges and Universities in generating a mass grassroots movement. • Energy Efficiency and Conservation Initiative: The US consumes 54% more energy than a comparable OECD country. Our goal is to reduce energy consumption per capita incrementally by 1% a year for 12 years for a total 12% reduction by 2020. • Other well defined ideas that hold the promise of meeting SEI set definitions.

  15. Participants in the invVESTVirtual Market Place • Supporters: are any person/organization that supports: Global Leadership in Sustainable Energy Initiatives (SEI) for USA through Massive Scaling for invVEST. • Thought Leaders: are individual (independent or part of an organization) who have a deep knowledge/influence in the specific energy cluster they are participating in and/or people who have deep knowledge/influence in any of the functional clusters. • Ambassadors: The role of the Ambassadors is to facilitate a group of thought leaders that are focused around each vertical energy cluster to bring ideas and initiatives to a logical conclusion.

  18. Colorado Renewable Energy InitiativesWhere are we? A Global Perspective • Significant increase in Renewable Energy Initiative since 2007 in all 3 states. • Colorado has since installed: • 4 MW residential & commercial solar panels • Commissioned 8.2 MW utility scale solar plant in Alamosa. 2nd largest in US. • RFP to install 600MW solar plant, which may become the largest install in the world. • Significant increase in Wind turbine installs • NREL and Xcel working on several wind, solar, hydrogen fuel cell, hybrid designs… • Xcel Smart Grid pilot in Boulder… • Conoco Philips Renewable Center, Louisville • NREL going through major expansion… • What does Colorado as leader in Renewable Energy mean to you? • How can we make Colorado a much more significant player?
