Integrative Design for Radical Energy Efficiency
Offered By: APS Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the groundbreaking concept of integrative design for radical energy efficiency in this 38-minute conference talk presented by Amory Bloch Lovins from the Rocky Mountain Institute at the APS April Meeting 2019 in Denver, CO. Delve into the potential for achieving substantial energy savings through optimizing buildings, vehicles, factories, and equipment as whole systems rather than isolated components. Discover how this approach can lead to energy efficiency gains that are several times larger and more cost-effective than commonly believed. Learn about the possibility of increasing returns in energy efficiency, similar to those driving the renewable electricity revolution. Examine how applying basic physics principles and sound engineering practices can create opportunities to make the world more prosperous, equitable, environmentally friendly, and secure—all while generating significant economic benefits.
