Plan
The Energy Plan shows how United States achieves Clean
Energy and Energy Independence in the next fifteen to twenty years. A plan is needed because during the last thirty years, United States has spent
over $1 trillion without solving America’s energy problems. At chapter
meetings, members are learning and understanding the challenges, economic opportunities, and environmental benefits.
United
States Clean Energy Plan
United States achieves Clean Energy by building 500 Clean Energy Breeder, Thorium or
Mirror Power Plants. The plants operate at efficiencies ranges from 40 to 95 percent, provide additional power to
operate millions of electric vehicles, and generate electricity cheaper
than coal or 3 cents per kilowatt-hour.

In
January 2013, Roger
Blomquist,
ANL
Nuclear Engineer, discussed how Breeder Power Plants generate
electricity. Fuel recycling takes place on the site. The research and
technology was developed at Argonne National Laboratory. For more
information, please visit Argonne
National Laboratory Breeder Program
A commercial Breeder Power Plant generates electricity from one ton of uranium per year compared to
fossil power plant that burning 4 million tons of coal and producing 20
million ton of carbon dioxide. Please visit
Breeder
Power Plants.

In March
2013, Norm
Hansen, Energy USA President, talked about how Mirror Power
Plants can generate electricity from the conversion of matter into Mirror
Energy according to the mass times the speed of light squares or E
= mc2. The technology comes from discovering the missing links in
United States and other countries multi-billion dollar High-Energy Physics
& Astrophysics research programs.
A commercial Mirror Power Plants use 200 grams or seven ounces of
matter. Spacecraft can take people anywhere in the World in minutes,
communities on the Moon in hours, Mars in days, and stars in weeks. Please

In April 2013, John
Kutsch, Executive Director, Thorium Energy Alliance, present how Thorium Power
Plants generate electricity. Recycling of fuel takes place on site. The
research and technology was developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory www.ornl.gov
A commercial Thorium Power Plant uses one ton of Thorium per year. Thorium
is more abundant than Uranium and can supply the World’s Clean Energy needs for over 10,000 years. For more information, please visit
Energy from Thorium

In
May 2013, Robert Rosner, Co Director of the
Energy Policy Institute at Chicago discussed Energy Policy to enables countries to move into the 21st century
by tripling the World’s energy supply. People
are
The
Energy Policy Institute at Chicago, EPIC, is an interdisciplinary research and training
institute focused on the economic and social consequences of energy
policies. For more information, please visit http://epic.uchicago.edu/about
On
January 2014, Raphael
Lee, University of Chicago, discussed the beneficial and harmful
effects of radiation: Beneficial
effects of radiation from the Sun. Beneficial natural background radiation
from the Earth. Medical uses of the radiation to diagnose and
treatment diseases. And the harmful
radiation caused by nuclear power plants accidents in the United States,
Russia and Japan.
In September 2013, Steven D. Rowe, P.E. Senior Product Manager - IEMS, GE Digital Energy
discussed how microgrids
control systems can better utilization
renewable energy sources like wind and solar power to reduce the demand on fossil fuel consumption.
GE Microgrid Control Systems use
can result in lower energy costs to the consumer because it encourages
making smarter choices about power use. For more information, please visit www.gedigitalenergy.com/multilin/catalog/mcs.htm
The Breeder, Thorium,
and Mirror Power Plants can be manufactured in assembly lines at the rate of one
per week. The clean energy power plants are estimated to cost $1 trillion. By
comparison, the U.S. Environment Protection Agency plans to have $1 Trillion
Carbon Tax ($150 to $200 per ton on carbon dioxide emissions). The clean power plants will reduce
carbon dioxide emissions by 2 billion tons or 33 percent and
will create
three million jobs..
United States Energy Independence
United
States achieves Energy Independence by having automobile companies manufacturing millions of energy efficient electric
vehicles and millions of natural gas cars and trucks.
- In September 2012, Brian Doody, Tesla Motors, discussed Testa Motors Model S” electric vehicle. The car was a five-passenger sedan with a
lithium-ion battery pack, gets 300 miles between charges, and is one of the
most aerodynamic sedans ever built. Some members were given the opportunity
to drive a Tesla Motors Model S electric vehicle. Please visit www.teslamotors.com/
Since Tesla Motors, General
Motors, Ford, Chrysler,
and other automakers are making energy efficient electric vehicles, passenger
cars, SUVs and trucks, the automakers need to economically mass-produce them.
- At a future meeting, the chapter plans to the have a
speaker discuss how cars and trucks are operating on natural gas. According to
the Natural Gas Vehicles of America (NGVA), 15 million cars and
truck in the World are powered by natural gas. For more information, please
visit http://www.ngvc.org/
Boone Pickens strongly supports using natural gas for transportation because
United States has the largest natural gas reserves in the World. For more
information, please see www.pickensplan.com/ngv/
United States can achieve Clean Energy by
building 500 Breeder, Thorium, or Mirror Power Plants and Energy Independence by manufacturing millions of
electric vehicles and natural gas cars and trucks. Carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced by 4 billion metric
tons or 67 percent. The implementation of the Energy Plan will create million of jobs and stimulate America’s economy.
