Global Network of Energy Systems
Help us build a full connected global energy system which can be displayed as a mashup on Google Earth by superimposing layers assembled in different files and consisting of placemarks, lines, polygons and overlays.
Help Us Find & Build the Following
- Precise geospatial location, time history and description of power plants, fuels and resources and transmission
- Complete existing information and add new data to GEOwiki
End-Use of electric power and fuels by individuals and organizations
- Provide description and physical map of the electric grid that connects power plants to major distribution hubs.
Provide data, models and tools to estimate Lifecycle costs and environmental impact
- Costs of the infrastructure
- Operating costs
- Fuel costs and constraints
- Environmental impacts
- Green House Gas emissions and their impact
Strategies for, and successful examples of
- Providing access to clean energy to the global population
- Increasing efficiency of energy use
- Transition to carbon-neutral systems
- Coupled Energy, Water, Climate and Environment systems analysis
Examples of data we are currently trying to complete:
