Objectives

The coal industry, including both internationally traded and domestic coal, needs to present a united front to the challenges it faces this decade and beyond. The orthodoxy that views coal only as a CO₂emitter – without regard to its role in economic and social development, essential to electricity generation and steel manufacture – may be at a turning point. However, the industry needs to cooperate to ensure that this turning point occurs. For that reason, New Century Coal and CoalPower.co has adopted a forward looking strategy that aims to position:

• coal as a strategic resource that is widely recognised as essential for a modern quality of life, a key contributor to sustainable development, and an essential element in enhanced energy security; and
• the coal industry as a progressive industry that is recognized as committed to technological innovation and improved environmental outcomes within the context of a balanced and responsible energy mix.

The strategy can only be achieved with the commitment of leading coal producers and stakeholders.

2011 “Coal Power” Story of the Year, where successful coal investors,

turn coal profits into alternative energy exploration

We still remember when ABC News initially reported that a wave earth energy generator which was launched off the New South Wales south coast in March, 2010 has sunk in rough seas. This project was initiated by some investors in coal, that felt their profits should go into alternative energy efforts.

 

(www.IJRnews.com) Sept. 24rd 2011) The U.N. had just recently named this one of the top ten renewable energy investments, does this still hold true?  Mother nature might be a safer bet.  International Journalism Review (IJR) and Earth Energy Exploration Beyond (EEEB) analyzed this alternative earth energy resource that is renewable to help shed light on what went wrong and what can be learned.

A massive swell at the Port Kembla site, 93 miles off the coast of Australia was able to drop the continent’s first wave power device to feed power to the Australian grid. The $5 million pre-commercial pilot project had just begun supplying power to the shore in February 2010, so in actuality it worked for two months.  Although disappointing it still shows promise in lieu of traditional Coal Power.

The wave earth energy industry is in its early years. Other than this, only half a dozen pilots are actually are delivering electricity to grids and which designs will do well remains to be seen.  EEEB feels this is a promising renewable energy, that needs to focus more attention to structural engineering.

The US has tremendous potential off the Northwest coast from Oregon to Alaska to harness this somewhat proven alternative energy resource.  Because it is a completely new industry, wave power entrepreneurs are trying out various engineering designs to imprison the power of the ocean. Some are sited on the sea floor, some float, and some are moored to the sea floor.

According to Science daily, the Oceanlinx design was modeled on an off-shore oil rig  and moored to the sea floor. Essentially it was a platform floating partly above the sea surface with turbines suspended above the water;  inside a wind tunnel. These are designed to capture air pushed up and down as the waves beneath them swell and sink. The power generated by the spinning turbines is then fed to the coast to supply the grid. Initially, the powerful waves just ripped the device from its moorings. Efforts to capture and tow it back to safety had to be abandoned in high seas, and the next day, it sank.

Unlike the other deep-sea energy failure going on now as a real oil mage don gushes from the sea floor in the Gulf of Mexico, there is no shocking environmental disaster associated with this hygienic energy failure.  However, there does appear to be a need to get back to the drawing board and seek other ways to confine the ocean’s power. If anything, it just demonstrates the tremendous power of the sea.  Engineers must focus on structurally designing these platforms for worse case scenarios.

Both IJR and EEEB applaud the efforts by engineers and entrepreneurs to date in the alternative energy resource, and see great things ahead.
