Since the turn of the century, the talk about the limited reserve of fossil fuels and the effects of their burning on our climate has become a major topic of the media. The evidence is staggering and as a consequence most of our world’s countries have started an energy transition. The main goal is to get away from fossil fuels and use “renewable energies”, so called because the resources are constantly renewed and compared to fossil fuels seem infinite. Energies such as solar, wind, biomass and geothermal are examples of such sources of renewables. Denmark is the current leader in wind generated electricity, California and Spain are showing how to harness the power of the Sun, and all those efforts to generate more with renewables has to be matched with the effort to make those solutions more efficient and more attractive to other countries who still view fossil fuels as the easy s...
