Our fuel cell car will be used both for transportation as well
as to balance electricity demand and -supply. Renewable
electricity will be produced by hydropower, geothermal
heat, waste and biomass power plants, wind turbines on-
and off-shore, tidal power, wave generators, osmotic power
plants and solar systems. Biogas will be produced from
manure, agricultural residues, waste water, food industry
waste, algae’s etc. In the end there is not a shortage of energy
but a surplus. Because the sun gives the earth more energy
in one hour than we consume worldwide in a year. And
there is also not a shortage in electricity production- and
storage capacity. Because all our fuel cell cars have many
times more electricity-production capacity than necessary
and storage of electricity can be done both in the batteries
of our electric cars or in hydrogen.
The organization of such an energy system will differ
fundamentally from our present system. Everyone can
produce renewable energy, locally from solar, wind, hydro
or biomass. It can be done at your own house, school, office,
within your own neighbourhood or by our own social net-
work. And everyone has a lot of electricity production- and
storage capacity available: their own cars and/or cars
from lease companies or social network organizations.
There will be also large-scale renewable energy produc-
tion, an electricity- and gas infrastructure and our car
parks and other parking places will change into energy
