like in iceland where geothermal energy has become more and more important it was pushed in the 1970 s. when all crisis hit the world and shook tiny iceland as well from harlem borrow. from. and it's a crisis of like you sort of use the. speed of. almost all important arm was. a success story in many countries around the world and learning from iceland and a keen to use the technology back home and especially in indonesia this could be a game changer indonesia is an island and actually a local because you can see itself thousands of violins delegated along the equator and on top of the ring effect of volcanoes the so-called ring of fire. we just basically acted until now and it makes us having the biggest get them up in the world approximately 29 go words of potential geothermal power is spread across

hundreds of locations on several islands such as java. sumatra and bali but how much is that really 29 go words well and back to the future in the eighty's it took 1.21 gigawatts to travel through time a crazy big number back down. point 25. today $29.00 gigawatts can be expressed as the output per year of $29.00 medium sized nuclear power plants $12340.00 for wind turbines that means potentially more than one 3rd of indonesia's energy capacity could come from geothermal power plants one day it's now still mostly public by coal. 60 it's a press and a holler at the see if it comes from the poor and bad it will mean we have the sweet and missions fund that are called for and it makes the air pollution ice going so badly here that's why we need to change our energy choice and geothermal

energy could be a smart choice it is available 24 hours per day $365.00 days per year in contrast to so we're. on cloudy days or wind when the wind doesn't blow and as it is a clean technology it could tell decarbonize the policy not only in indonesia but in other parts of the world the wrong tree to 4 percent of global energy demand by 2050 could be supplied from geothermal estimates say. today just around the quantum of the norm potential around the world is being used one reason is it is not attractive to investors in the short term because it takes years to develop. once the operation is firmly developed and everybody is everything is running well it is definitely

a parish you are making money left and right but it takes a long time and people are impatient and not a problem it's just thermal exploration could trigger earthquakes not just the drilling itself but removing the steam and returning to water can destabilize the undergrowth it's rare but it can happen and in indonesia. is also resistance because many areas a sacred moment people thinking this is really out of their mind if that holy place is being driel you'll get just a minute and since coal is still the top priority in indonesia it is hard to sell the idea of green geothermal energy. the local people who live close to the region all of the just a manager resources they don't talk about the change they don't talk about green energy issue also green energy is not really despite some technological problems

geothermal energy seems to have great potential not only in iceland but around the world and if we've learned something from the icelanders it's that other countries could start promoting and investing much more into it because dirt is a great and clean source of power waiting to be used right there. and look to the stars now with thanks to one of the most famous innovate is of our time even musk is project starlink promises to bring high speed internet to everyone not just people in big cities all richer economies this could be a solution for far off places all around the globe including remote communities in africa the value restricted access until now well we visited eastern congo where every upload is a challenge just for you to wait till but it's also working. in

some parts of africa uploading files is often a real challenge many places have little to no access to the internet. but. does the solution lie in space thousands of satellites are being deployed to enable high speed internet worldwide by starlink a 10 bill. dollar project launched by south african born in long months. jacko had obama is a documentary filmmaker and journalist he also provides footage to t.v. broadcasters in europe and needs to transfer the images quickly over the internet. but in his hometown of sucking in eastern congo getting a connection is often a hit or miss affair. he's currently trying to upload footage via his cell phone. sometimes it's a way it's and some snow to work in good some day and you can sense only 2

g. that waits much more and the boats can take even a day. full day sending just to do that. is not only sucky as all of the lives that means into minutes but the full hold the full country needs into it so what i can best do styling is to just come here and to help. what's their company here because people need it. but aren't there more pressing problems here like fighting hunger and poverty. and if the internet is a necessity to any place in the wild it is

a way out it is in africa and never was and it was communities to tap into whether it's education systems that they did not have access to all health care systems that they would otherwise have no access to. college so markets because of projects that they would have no access to. starlink is intended to serve africa to. data and videos will be transmitted to satellites that will be in the material to tracking stations connected to the internet. starlink is currently testing its technology in the united states to get a high speed internet connection users need a device which is easy to install initial reports say the connections are usually fast and stable. among. them becomes difficult someone. who now our ward is.

ready for an. operation. might be a bit awkward. gaumont is the closest city in congo to muhammad's home internet cafes here promise wrap it up loads the journalist hopes he'll finally be able to send his video material all 40 kg of bytes of it. will know what to sell it's just like just too big a plate for just click here. nothing. nothing. 40 gigabytes would cost him almost 150 euros here we need these people who are just sitting just like. this did it because you're going to do nothing with this it did it and it's not so up to. the starling technology could improve speed and

reliability in cyber cafes and allow unrestricted access to the worldwide web but that is precisely what the government in congo doesn't want. to. build their militia. operation a doctor but what's the big mission. or. is this the end of the road for starlink in africa now neighboring rwanda has been using other providers satellites for fast internet for some time now it's seen as a driver for development internet tourists come to could gali from far and wide from hama it was a 4 hour trip by bus and motorbike. and this bit is where. the upload takes 2 hours his client in the netherlands has finally received the video files the price 20 year 0 so i didn't cross the border to border in the other country

just to move into. its own or the city there to move. to the poor country. my cunt. that you swore it is later corey and that president i think it is. this all the way to. untrue all of these. or make sure i don't actually. mean the mom is tired of all the traveling around he still pinning his hopes on starlink and its promise to deliver high speed internet to africa. and his cross for jack and all the others around the world would like to enjoy all the information they can get their hands on thanks to the most impressive innovations about time the internet the team and me here in berlin is joining us
