Steven Cowley: Resource vs. Knowledge based energy
Jun 26, 2011Thanks Mike for sending me the link to this Steven Cowley TED talk on fusion.
Transition
Focus Fusion, if proven to work, is a transformative technology.
If the Plasma Focus device works as theorized, it means that, within a decade, cheap power stations will be popping up all over the world, completely transforming the energy, resource, economic and political dynamics that we are currently operating under.
This section looks at ways to facilitate the transition to fusion world, to make it as universally beneficial as possible.

Energy and Income
May 07, 2009Jim Trow, our new technical spokesperson, draws our attention to gapminder.org. This software enables us to create a graph that shows the stark connection between energy consumption and poverty.
Are Renewables in Competition with Focus Fusion?
Feb 05, 2009If Focus Fusion is successful, will it mean that all the investment of time, energy, passion and money that has gone into traditional renewables is wasted? If we can get unlimited energy for a song, will all those solar energy companies go bankrupt? Is this a win/lose proposition?
LPP Receives Major Investments

Transition to Hybrid Cars
Jul 25, 2006Transitions don’t happen over night. When you compare total energy costs of hummers to hybrid cars today, as Art Spinella from CNW Marketing Research did, you find that the hybrids cost twice as much per mile driven. Hummer drivers rejoiced at this news, because they didn’t listen to the rest of the analysis.
Heat and Thermal Pollution

The Energy Industry
Jul 20, 2006Here are some thoughts on the transition for the Energy industry. As you can see, we need to think this through a lot more to come up with some practical policies, strategies, suggestions.

Water
Jul 14, 2006There are two major ways in which Focus Fusion can affect the planet’s looming water crisis. First, as a source of cheap, virtually unlimited energy it makes hydropower obsolete, liberating many water systems currently trapped behind dams. Second, it will reduce the cost of desalinization dramatically, thus alleviating global water shortages. Of course, switching to fusion and working on these issues will require a complex transition process.
