As Indias oil consumption is increasing,world oil supply will soon stabilize and thenstart dwindling while oil prices are bound to
rise further For economic as well as environmental
reasons we need to shift to alternative non-polluting sources of energy.
The aim of this presentation is to raisequestions and provoke discussion regardingthe future of Indias energy policy and toconsider various possible solutions

Our civilization has evolved based on anabundant supply of cheap oil
The transportation industry and agriculturalfertilizers heavily depend on oil
The current world oil production andconsumption rates are almost equal

Contradicting Optimistic Views
The Energy Crisis is often overlooked based on thefollowing misconceptions:1. Higher prices will bring in larger investments, which
will lead to more production
2. Rise in prices will lower consumption3. Oil shale and tar sands will replace conventional oil4. Fudging of reported reserves by oil companies andcountries for political/economic reasons5. Many previous crisis predictions proved wrong thisone will too

Oil Economy The world market can be said to depend on OPEC almost
entirely since it has 77% of the current world oil reserves The day-to-day market prices of oil reflect many factors like the
current stocks, shipments, economic situation, speculativeinvestment, etc. and not so much the size of reserves of oil
We have now reached a stage in the exploitation of the earth
where trying harder to produce more oil can have only limitedresults
Oil consumption on a short-term basis does not depend on theprice of oil, as is the case for other goods. There is a large timelag before consumers shift to alternatives or reduce demand
In fact, some experts believe that a rise in oil pricesincreases
demand on a short term basis. E.g Oil and natural gas demandgrowth rates in China have been in the range of 7-15% per yearsince 1999, despite the tripling of oil prices since then

Future Exploration
The major oil fields in the world have already beendiscovered the largest fields are always found first
Except for some parts of the China Sea and of thewestern desert in Iraq, major regions in the worldhave been fully explored.
Advances in geological technology allow us to predictpromising areas for oil we now know reasonably well
where new oil will be found
Oil in the Caspian Sea has high sulfur content whichcorrodes the pipes and is expensive to extract andrefine. Caspian Sea oil is not likely to become asignificant factor in the world oil scenario.

The best known extraction techniques are already in use inmany of the giant fields in the Middle East
Increase in the fraction of Oil-in-Place which is actuallyrecovered will require diligent field management,technical knowhow, motivation and discipline, as well ascapital investment, which may not always be feasible
Oil which can be recovered using these techniques couldgive us only a breathing break, e.g. advanced recoveryfrom Indian fields could amount to 4 MMM bbl more(Narayanan, 1999). At current Indian consumption rates,
this would give us about 4 years more supply, though atworld consumption rates, this will last for less than 2months

Fossil fuel
Fossil fuels are non-renewable resourcesbecause they take millions of years to form, andreserves are being depleted much faster thannew ones are being made.
Fossil fuels are fuels formed by natural resourcessuch as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead
organisms.
The age of the organisms and their resultingfossil fuels is typically millions of years, and
sometimes exceeds 650 million years.
-

The fossil fuels, which contain high percentagesof carbon, include coal, petroleum, and naturalgas.
Fossil fuels range from volatile materials with
low carbon:hydrogen ratios like methane, toliquid petroleum to non-volatile materialscomposed of almost pure carbon, like anthracitecoal.

Environmental effects
on fossil fuels
-
8/7/2019 energy crisis and its alternatives resources
16/81
Pollution
Almost all fossil fuel use is by burning (or
"combustion"). Burning produces waste products due toimpurities in the fuel, especially particulates and
various gases such as sulphur dioxide, nitrogen
oxides, and volatile organic compounds.
-
8/7/2019 energy crisis and its alternatives resources
17/81
There are serious disagreements over whethersome effects of fossil fuel use are harmful at all.
In some cases the amount of waste is so smallthat the effect, if any, is difficult to detect.
Mercury from coal burning is an example.
In the United States, more than 90%of greenhouse gas emissions come from thecombustion of fossil fuels.

Acid Rain
Combustion of fossil fuels generates sulphuric,
carbonic, and nitric acids, which fall to Earthas acid rain, impacting both natural areas andthe built environment.
Monuments and sculptures made
from marble and limestone are particularlyvulnerable, as the acids dissolve calciumcarbonate.

Fossil fuels also contain radioactive materials,mainly uranium and thorium, which are releasedinto the atmosphere.
In 2000, about 12,000 tonnes of thorium and5,000 tonnes of uranium were released
worldwide from burning coal. However, this radioactivity from coal burning isminuscule at each source and has not shown tohave any adverse effect on human physiology.

Harvesting, processing, and distributing fossil
fuels can also create environmental concerns. Coal mining methods, particularly mountaintopremoval and strip mining, have negativeenvironmental impacts, and offshore oil drilling
poses a hazard to aquatic organisms

Transportation
Transportation of coal requires the use of diesel-powered locomotives, while crude oil is typicallytransported by tanker ships, each of whichrequires the combustion of additional fossil fuels
-

Regulations
Environmental regulation uses a variety ofapproaches to limit these emissions,
Command-and-control (which mandates theamount of pollution or the technology used),
Economic incentives, orVoluntary programs.
-
8/7/2019 energy crisis and its alternatives resources
32/81
Example
An example of such regulation in the USA is the"EPA is implementing policies to reduceairborne mercury emissions. Under regulationsissued in 2005, coal-fired power plants will needto reduce their emissions by 70 percent by
2018."

Economic Terms
Pollution from fossil fuels is regarded as anegative externality.
Taxation is considered one way to make societalcosts explicit, in order to 'internalize' the cost ofpollution.
This aims to make fossil fuels more expensive,
thereby reducing their use and the amount ofpollution associated with them, along withraising the funds necessary to counteract thesefactors

Impact upon INDIA(5.5 %) &CHINA(7.5%) Oil contributes to 40% of world energy and 96% of
transportation energy.
875 billion barrels consumed already and approx.1000 barrels in reserve. From now to 2020, world oil consumption will rise
by about 60%. By 2025, the number of cars will increase to well
over 1.25 billion from approximately 700 milliontoday. Global consumption of gasoline coulddouble.

-
8/7/2019 energy crisis and its alternatives resources
48/81
Impacts
A handful of Middle East suppliers will regain theinfluence they had in the 1970s and once again be able to
dictate the terms on world oil markets and manipulateoil prices and world politics. Middle Eastern producers will continue to use their oil
revenues to increase their military expenditures, fuel anarms race and undermine regional stability.
Corrupt, oppressive regimes will continue to use oilrevenues as a means to maintain their power.
Wealth generated by oil rich Middle Eastern countrieswill continue to flow into terrorist organizations andorganizations promoting radical Islam.
-
8/7/2019 energy crisis and its alternatives resources

Impacts
The U.S. will need to keep increasing American militarypresence in the region to ensure our access to theremaining oil. This will mean further U.S. embroilmentin Middle East conflicts, more anti-American sentiment,and a deepening rift between the West and the Islamic
world.
Tension between the U.S. and Chinadue to growing Chinese intervention in the Middle Eastto ensure its own access to oil and Chinese arming ofMiddle Eastern countries hostile to the U.S. and itsallies.
Further drain on economic resources caused by importsof expensive oil.

Generating methods Tidal stream generator
Tidal stream generators (or TSGs) make use ofthe kinetic energy of moving water to power turbines, in asimilar way to wind turbines that use moving air. Thismethod is gaining in popularity because of the lower cost
and lower ecological impact compared to tidal barrages.
Tidal barrageTidal barrages make use of the potential energy
in the difference in height (or head) between high and lowtides. Barrages are essentially dams across the full width ofa tidal estuary, and suffer from very high civil infrastructurecosts, a worldwide shortage of viable sites andenvironmental issues.

Dynamic tidal power
Dynamic tidal power (or DTP) isa theoretical generation technology that wouldexploit an interaction between potential andkinetic energies in tidal flows.
It proposes that very long dams(for example: 3050 km length) be built fromcoasts straight out into the sea or ocean, without
enclosing an area.
Each dam would generate powerat a scale of6 - 15 GW.

Dry steam power plants Dry steam plants are the simplest and oldest design. They
directly use geothermal steam of 150C or more to turn turbines.Flash steam power plants
Flash steam plants pull deep, high-pressure hot water intolower-pressure
tanks and use the resulting flashed steam to drive turbines. They
require fluid temperatures of at least 180C, usually more. Thisis the most common type of plant in operation today. Binary cycle power plants Binary cycle power plants are the most recent development, and
can accept fluid temperatures as low as 57C The moderately hot
geothermal water is passed by a secondary fluid with a muchlower boiling point than water. This causes the secondary fluidto flash to vapour, which then drives the turbines. This is themost common type of geothermal electricity plant being builttoday both Organic Rankine and Kalina cycles are used. The
thermal efficiency is typically about 10%.
