SUSTAINABLE ENERGY
The ultimately energy system is low-cost, compact fusion power,
in particular the boron hydrogen reaction with direct magneto-
hydrodynamic electricity generation, coupled with electrolysis to
produce H2 fuel. This pollution-free, high-energy future still
produces heat when the copious power is used so that removal of
excess greenhouse gases from the atmoshere is still required.
As this remains unrealized, the best solution is 100% renewable
energy from reliable, non-intermittent sources such as ocean
(tidal current & wave), geothermal or solar thermal energy
coupled to non-polluting distributed energy storage.
Remote isolated communities that are currently dependent on
expensive, imported, diesel fuel based generation have the
greatest need to have 100% renewable power ASAP. EnGen
Institute has focused on tidal power for island communities as it
can provide guaranteed power and hence guaranteed desalinated
water, has high energy density, does not need to use scarce island
land and requires less energy storage capacity.
Guaranteed, bulk, clean energy to power electric vehicles can
completely eliminate the need for expensive, imported fossil fuel
without impacting, like bio-fuel production, on the availability of
land for food, housing, recreation and nature.

Tidal currents are not-intermittent
(ie. cycle slowly without dropout),
frequent, predictable & reliable,
have high energy density and both
climate and weather independent.
Tidal current power, with a small
known amount of energy storage
can provide guaranteed demand
tracking 100% renewable energy.
