Environmental drivers
• Debate is drawing to close,
even in the U.S.
• Science will become irrelevant
– perception is reality
• Cost of doing nothing greater
than cost of action e.g. Kyoto
• Popular pressure will drive
policy
• Public tone of White House
has already changed e.g.
“Energy Hog” campaign
Renewables are not the only solution to these drivers
Others include:
– Carbon Sequestration
– Energy Efficiency
– Fuel switching (e.g. Coal to gas, coal/gas to nuclear)
– “Clean” hydrocarbons
Renewables are the solution of choice for those countries with either
a major indigenous renewable resource, firm social/political will, or
because a market support framework has created an industry

It is all about having the experience & skills
Managing our growing carbon footprint
• Economics of sequestration don’t add up - UNLESS you view it
as an enabler for growth
• No sequestration = no chance to exploit unconventionals/coal
• Geological sequestration is possible without technology
advances
Managing our growing carbon footprint
• Proving safe storage is the challenge
• Governments needs to clarify legal liabilities wrt storage
• Public understanding is low – NGO’s are ready to fill the
gap if we don’t
• It’s time to get moving

The solution is the energy mix
• There is no single solution – diversity of energy sources
will increase, including other new energies like Hydrogen
• Renewables will be part of the solution – costs will
decrease, but stability, scale and new fast growth markets
will determine pace of competitiveness
• All choices (including nuclear) need time to build
So the time to make decisions is now…not only for new
renewables, but also traditional fuels….
