How much energy is produced during the lifetime of an energy source - compared to all that is required for its construction, operation and decommissioning? The so-called Energy harvesting factor (or "Energy Return On Investment", EROI for short) provides a tangible answer to this question and is an often overlooked but key measure of the performance of any form of energy.
In this lecture Dr Lorenzo Dusowhy a high energy harvest factor is a prerequisite for prosperity - and what role nuclear energy plays in this. We dispel myths, present hard facts and critically categorise the current energy paths.
- How does nuclear energy really compare to wind and solar?
- Are we threatened by a loss of prosperity due to low EROI values?
- Can EROI show us the way to a resilient and sustainable future?
Discuss with us one of the most crucial questions of our energy future - scientifically sound, comprehensibly presented, open to dialogue.
