The steam engine accelerates the intensive use of natural resources and in this period the ppm of CO2 in the atmosphere increased by 48%. The population was 750-800mi. The rapid growth to 7.8 billion, now on much better terms including food, uses approximately 615 Exa Joules (EJ) to meet its needs in electricity, transport, heating and industries, as well as to produce food. To stop hazardous emissions, a radical matrix change is underway. Solar, wind and other renewable energy must replace fossil fuels while maintaining the quality of energy, especially electrical energy. This article addresses these issues.closedAccessgreenhouse gasessustainabilitymachinerystorageenergy sourcesresourcespower demandcarbon dioxideTexto completo de evento10.1109/ICHQP53011.2022.9808572
