wants to finish his studies now. yeah, i said he's getting trained, you can choose to go back or somewhere else. currently, more people than ever on the move worldwide in such a better life. so why do i want to go back to 9 j like i don't have any reason to do this? no reason there's nothing for me that yeah, believe something great is coming. very, very sad. and yeah, come with jean will regard love when the story in for my grief reliable nice her migraines, wherever they may be with ah, humans are dependent on energy, whether it's to heat our homes, look off food or traveled to work. but this dependency fueled by its limited

resources, has led to a crisis that threatens the world as we know it, humanities only who is to change the way we think about energy and debbie get it from. that's what we talk about today. hello and welcome to eco, india. i'm some of that i go now garbage is another problem. we've cleared it. every day we produce more than $2000000000.00 of solid waste. in thumb and nod will have just a using their trash to generate energy solving to problems at once. let's see how ah a little boss. some done walked through this village and he will noticed all of these lights come on. these lights are powered by this, this, this and this re auto country wrangled village and dominant. who's ever gone guy district here they generate electricity from vase using this bow. gas blocked.

everybody keeps stalking nowadays about west to well. so this is a perfect as on mission in that angle, dom law do generates more than 14 and a half tons of solid risk every day. most of it is collected by local municipal bodies, but only half of it is processed. the rest goes straight to landfills we're collecting, we're collecting all the rest and generalizing. we're trying to segregate, we're in processing assets that we're not 100 percent of processing in many places . so now that attempt to we're making the blonde receives race from more than $4000.00 households and come to wrangell village. additionally, the super gun guy down an 8 near by villages also contribute ways from their vegetable markets to the blonde. on average, the blonde receives anywhere between 500 to 1800 kilograms of bio degradable waste every day. the village president money moved to say is that this process reduces

the burden of vist management on those local bodies. funny commer. oh, sunday retina. now apart. so let's assume there is a leaky market in one of those villages on a saturday, and we go in the evening and collect the v is to with the vehicle or when we do so, the relate saves about $15000.00 rupees money that it would have otherwise a spangler did that add up to like $60000.00 rupees. amanda's went any product or not. even i believe it wants to waste a sent to the bio guest blonde. it falls within the purview of the blonde supervisor. so got ready branch. he works long side to sen because in overseas operations in the blonde to ensure every 10 grams of smoothly, although the biodegradable waste is already segregated when it arrives. pradeep says it is necessary to repeat the process. only a truck, contin biodegradable waste only vinny to cross ticket to ensure that it doesn't contain anything like plastics of as we get here, it is made up of the you cables, chicken parts and things from the students and vis from which other schools and

fish market like october, think negated, which on the list up and send it on to for the next, a standalone for that next the se, debit travels through as crude i've convinced straight to the shred over, it is mixed with water and flows down to the edge data. the agitator is nothing but a collecting dang, that continuously stirs the waste before feeding it to the digestion. but before we get into what that is, that is an important step which involves cow, dung and al guardian. we get a lot of cytochrome to count of the acidity, the, and about 100 k g of golden doodle to think that and shows that the back media inside survives, i had the act quickly quicker that's an out of now back to the digest. it is this huge balloon like structure and here is where the magic happens. this di justice capacity is to metric tons, meaning it can process 2000 gallows of vase width 2000 litters of water at any

given time. the rest of it to the district takes just a month to decompose. that process would be 3 times as long if the refuse were left out in the open. bull, not honest, if you don't the, based on the road, the police becomes dirty. landfilling happens that problem of landfilling assorted because of my best learning a lot that not anyone who wants to buy a gas is produced. unwanted gases and moisture content are scrubbed out and the filtered gas is fact of the generator for electricity generation and can go out in the dense and order give us a degenerate us capacities 15 kilowatt like engineered up to 100 units of electricity with the and died who nick is powered by mortality, nicky as a b movie powder into 5 lights that on declined with this electricity. secondly, we have a charging association for the eguard bedding, snobbish to, well, what do you want to charge him when you get a pot from bio gas to digest your old, to generate slurry water as a byproduct? it is an efficient alternative to chemical fertilizer and is distributed free of cost to residents in the region. nathaniel,

unless larry water has to be used in one by an issue for every daily dose of water . vanita ross, letty is mixed with big because it's highly concentrated with nitrogen that the garden head was created with that city water. i would say that he workers working that exempt they take over the fruits and vegetables, they read about a cultivating their desire. it gives them some supplementary income, also for them to sustain their lives. the plant was financed by the ministry of ruler development. for 66 lat rupees, about 75000 years. it's daily operations are managed by the villages administration . he did this type of unit can be set up in every religion ex benito in quantity can been abused and this model can be replicated. it's pretty good auto or india. this must be known as m. since the by august unit began operating in august 2021. it has processed some $400.00 metric tons of biodegradable waste

and sustainably. the west has to be managed, 100 as to where my measured and low cost, very tens of northern gums of financial benefits. but that in terms of the ecological benefits, the protection of our health, protection of our public health sanitation. that way only we cannot says in the future, the village administration plans to utilize all of the electricity generated from the bio, guest blonde to politics, office and other administrative buildings. hype, a local and decentralized solutions like these conquer butte not only to the waste management needs of the region, but also to safe, healthy living spaces. oceans cover more than 70 percent of diet. ocean tides could potentially be an abundant source of energy, but utilizing that power is not so simple. we took a look at the highs them laws of tidal energy. off the coast of scotland. you could witness this wind turbines being put into the water. they're called tidal turbines

. they sit on the sea floor and harness the energy in the moving water that comes in and goes out with the tides. tell car is canal sitting there and waiting to be used. the potential is huge. it's estimated that we could practically capture enough title, energy to power all home from the united states, twice over my research with climate change shows. we need this energy. now. yes, at the moment, all the energy we get from existing title power plants worldwide can power less than 400000 homes. so how does tile power work exactly? and why isn't it every way at the tides are predictable. they come in, they go out and they've been doing this the same way since the moon was born. so with the dial stick a turbine on the water as it flows in or out. and viola you can make electricity

with the same principle that window binds. you moving water mix the turbine spin, this powers the gearbox on a generator, which turns mechanical energy into electricity. water incidentally is over $800.00 times downfield, an air which means that time turbines need to be studio, but they can be smaller and slower and still individually produce more power than wind turbine. wind starts and stops blowing somewhat randomly and the sun isn't always out. so these renewables can be difficult to integrate into the grid tides, as we know, i really, really predictable and consistent. so if batches are charged, when tides are flowing, we could use those batteries each time there's no movement and repeat at regular intervals. with tides to mean waste extract, power exist, once called title stream, and the other title range. let's talk about titled range power. that takes

advantage of the difference between the high and the low tide, which can go up to 12 meters. and this kind of title power has been around for decades. the oldest title reign generator lawrence was built in northern france in 1966. it costs around $1000000000.00 in today's money, which is cheaper than a comparable nuclear power plant. there are 4 other titled range plants running in south korea, russia, canada, and china. apart from geography, the infrastructure to support titled range plants does, doesn't exist everywhere. and people have both the massive structures because they can be who defect for the local environment, disturbing migratory fish, the composition of the soil, and even taking space away from local communities. 98 percent of title energy. today comes from title range projects that together have a capacity of $520.00 megawatts, which is still a tiny, tiny fraction of consumption. but the other kind of title,

power generation could ship things up for the younger and sexier kind of the market . dido stream power. it's showing more promise of the moment with its simpler devices that depend on underwater currency caused by the tides. they vary in shape and design. i like wind turbines that have been known to cause the lungs of bats flank boss, to implored the pressure difference called by title barrages could have a similar effect on the internal organs of fish. but title stream projects are already more eco friendly. what we see is climate change is by far the worst enemy . so yes, big things will have a environmental effects, but we should put them in that context. climate change, compared to wind of solar energy. title has been slow for the reason you might have guessed. sadly, a lot of the solutions are really expensive because the industry, so young with very small industry,

it doesn't have an established supply chain for manufacturing chain. corrosion is going to be big problems. you're going to choose your materials really carefully, bio falling as a really big issue where, you know, you put something, the water is things are going to want to grow on it. and it's gonna make it into low, many repo habitat, the performance of the term of deteriorates. you need to find some way for renting that that's a huge operational costs. which is why most title stream generation project cluster in the global, not where financial support to death. the technology at this stage exists, china and south korea joining in but low income countries like india have been slow, a drop plans to try out idle power. but they could benefit when the costs of deployment begin to fall, while its financial cost is still higher than other renewables. if net benefit could actually be higher when you consider things like it's predictable supply of clean energy to the grid. or the fact that the stream projects don't visually affect a beautiful sea view. so especially,

and course to long island nations title does have the power to play a significant role in getting the net 0 in a relatively less disruptive way. the need of the hour is to make tighter power competitive from the depths of the ocean to moon buys high rise of rooftops, where more and more people are considering solar panels to generate cleaner and cheaper electricity. we explored how businesses are helping people lose the sun's limitless energy. efficiently. share money is a financial consultant who now works from home, which means his electricity use has fight. he tried to set up solar panels on his roof to north his carbon footprint, but ran into a problem living in us, eddie lake,

one by 8. your new understand that moodle stop is never communion spirit said so shared spheres. it's not on late. the other thing is that you have your worn holes, your own rooftop, that you can, you know, use or control, ah saw getting access to little thought who set up a lot by mill warns that electricity goes out and let us or diesel openly, con, weekly, or bi, only me this is one big problem. several renters and homeowners in crowded cities like mom by our facing. and it accounts for a large gap between the countries ambition for rooftop solar generation, and that he, and at the, on the ground, ah, india, the target was to produce around 40 gigawatts of energy from rooftop solar generation. by 2023. so far, only 8 gigawatts have been generated. other factors holding it back, our lack of standardization in solar policies and practical financial support for saunders installations. ah, but there are now

a few startups in india working to bridge these gaps like burial jaw that has raised private investment to install low cost solar panels far as a danger communities. so far they have set up solar panels for hundreds residential complexes in one bite on a national model and was a long term leasing contract and financial support. eventually, the communities will own the banners. so with us, the data is fixed for 15 years. that is one benefit. second it is immediately i'd be 0, it is 50 percent of your cost, and $3.00, it is free when, when you set it up at the end of 15 years, the plan does transfer to the consumer free of cost. ah, however, the update from urban consumers continues to be slow and then date. but betty, or john will founder, she believes that when a few people feel incentivized to buy in more will follow i feel that you know it,

the trust definitely needs to be. so for the starting step for solving their trust is definitely more installation, so should prove which, which that creates. they are working with the bank or be technology, dr. called sandy grid, also attempting to make solar energy more accessible and affordable by going digital. is it possible for us to basically be couple of the, the problems of a having to go so wanting to go solo on one side and having a physical installation doesn't necessarily have to happen on your own. rooftops, right. can it be just like, you know, back in the dave used to carry, you know, some drives with storage and now everything is on the cloud in a similar fashion. can we put solar on the cloud? ah, it sounds no vince. but it's similar to our credit trade scheme. how it works is fendy grids range grids like doors belonging to the residential solar project from betty job. the units of energy produced here at my credit and can then be treated

on their platform. customers can invest in the panels, monthly and reserve unit social credit because of the comics of scale, the big them because we are building largest systems and then we are basically you can come and reserve smaller portions on it pay have let me visit to close a solar, we actually segregate and basically allocate to glow what's off this particular project for your requirements? so whatever paula gets generated from this, right, we trade the power to a local partner to 5. in this case, it is this building, retrieve this power at the be defined price point. so that is around $5.00 piece per unit. that power, essentially whatever it gets, treated that credit then come to a war. so every time you come and create an account with us on our platform, we also create a wallet like a digital wallet in for the but to clear up on and on to that a wallet,

we essentially add those credits from the system. since it's launch in november 2021 sunday grids has purchased 64 kilowatt. so solar capacity through multiple residential rooftop installations across my and bank lot. and people from around the country can and have bought into these installations as it's in the development phase. the solar power market relies on subsidies from the state. the startup companies also have private investors who are financing them and funding their operational costs. sunday griggs have on boarded with most public and private electricity suppliers and built us in buyer to collaboration with solar producers. like better, you'll just provide that infrastructure. they need a group of believers educating over digital holiday. you know, i, i felt this was 11 that julie grid of gab that he was filling in the and died ecosystem. the link between public and private electricity providers is

a really important step that helps customers offset the credit against that electricity bills and minimize their own carbon footprint. and this platform was exactly what shall ronnie was looking for. it's undergrads. i started at about 50 percent off my bill, basically the greatest gibbs getting accrued to your account as their generator. and whenever you have to pay your bill, you can this born to that of portal or the backboard and use your credits to pay your bill. and if anything's left, right, you can use your traditional sources to pay the rest of the wind rate. and what that also allows me to do is all the ability to decide how much of my bill to offset gives me a good starting point. right law as an entryway into this ecosystem. while this still remains accessible, only do

a small section of india's city dwellers and is still in its early stages. going in door digital, solid energy is one potential step forward. talk, lena, future. ah, solar panels like those from the last report, wind power, tidal energy. these renewable sources are key to generating clean, abundant power. the infrastructure needed to harness that power requires other resources. and there's the question of what we do with the material when we can more longer use them. we travel to poland, where a company has found a creative solution. with these wind turbines are more than 20 years old, compared to modern ones, they're small and inefficient. so they're being torn down so what happens to

these green energy giants at the end of their lifespan? the blades especially, are made of composites and plastics instead of recycling them a lot and some in landfills, more incinerated in the kilns of cement and steel factories. for some years now, facilities that incinerator them aren't really happy about it and that's down to the physics of the combustion process. last fall, the glass fibers bonded with resins, which come up the kiln and the ash and i so quite apart from the environment, luna sank on. it's just not an ideal solution. zeal is unique. dealers own and recycling is only just getting off the ground. it's only recently that wind turbine manufacturers have had the wind to waste problem on their radar. that often leads to situations like this on this green field. decommissioned turbine blades

are dismantled for the scrapyard. one company near the polish city of rod suave has come up with a solution unmet takes all turbine blades from germany and turns them into furniture. the plains of the 12 meters long are 1st sought into sections, sanded and painted. they get a new life as outdoor furniture, chairs, benches, and tables. accented with top quality march would students from the university of shalana gotta come up with the designs. they're thrilled that their products are being bought by customers around the world. of course we can use it inside, but i think outside is am is better right to, to use this material because it's water proof is damaged grove,

a foot bridge, another of unmet novel recycling ideas. the rotor blades were transformed into the support for a pedestrian bridge. it's the brain child of engineer on j. r. done show for him. old blades are not hazardous waste, but a resource spout. shamiqua news me ions go to the for example. we don't try to change the shape of the rotor of yet. we turn it into a sculpture or that doesn't blades me deal is going to be monumental. i really big so that when it really, while your bush bunge, it'll be on a narrow jug rosanna, unquestionable of runs and online shop wings for living. that's the exclusive retailer. there's even an app to let you see what the furniture would look like in your garden shed novel and his counterparts in poland are good friends. a garden bench like this can easily cost 1500 euros. we're

aiming to be a small and stylish branches that helps raise awareness of the problem and also shows that old discarded objects can be turned into beautiful and unique furnishings. the movie boy, his friends and poland are constantly coming up with innovative designs. like a rotor wing transformed into a wine cellar. when it comes to up cycling the sky's the limit. and there is no shortage of turbine blades that need repurposing with the new generation of wind turbines are bigger and more powerful. modern turbines are temples of high tech filled to the brim with electronic components. and they promised to help solve the wind to waste problem. in 30 or 40 years, when these turbines go offline, they'll be more easily recycled into valuable raw materials. elena ha, yesterday about the all big manufacturers are working on producing their components

and so that they'll be easier to recycle. meaning in a way that's environmentally sustainable energy saving and cost saving energy intensive costs. 100 percent recyclable turbine blades are the wave of the future. germany, for example, plants to install $1500.00 new wind turbines a year. in a few decades, their aging blades will be mined for valuable raw materials. recycling components surely seems to be the way forward. and while we're talking about the way forward, a team in india in germany is working hard on bringing eco india to point to in the next few weeks. sadly, it's time for me to say good bye. thank you for all your depreciation and support over these last 4 and a half years. aku. and i have enjoyed every minute of bringing you this short week after week. keep tuning in to find context and solutions to some of the biggest
