How Energy / Fuel / Electricity could be different



Power grid / energy usage could be reduced with incentives / rewards

LK-99 could be the first room-temperature, ambient-pressure superconductor

Trash could become jet fuel

Windows could be solar panels

Solar energy could create extreme heat

Human waste could be turned into energy, insect feed, and/or fertilizer

Geothermal could be a significant renewable energy resource

Crop residue burning could be turned into fuel or livestock feed / bedding

Teslas / electric / lithium batteries could be modified to not catch on fire

Wind turbines could be bladeless, noise-free, not harm birds, on rooftops, and produce more power

Beach umbrellas could be solar

Coral reefs could grow faster with solar electrical currents

Digital distributed energy could provide energy in emerging markets

Food could be created from carbon dioxide, microbes, water, and energy

A rechargeable solar battery could be a power backup / enable off grid living

Cruise ships could pollute less / dump less sewage / use different fuel

Solar microgrids could provide power and withstand hurricanes / tropical storms

Algae could become biofertilizer, bioplastic, pollution control (sewage and fertilizers), food / vitamins, fuel, fish and mushroom feed, and dyes/stabilizers

Fermentation could produce sustainable, healthier, and better tasting oils / fats

Kinetic dance floors, sidewalks, and floors could create energy

Coffee grounds could be recycled into fuel, flavor, raw material, and fire logs

Fracking could enhance geothermal energy

Nuclear power could be less expensive and safer

Using wood for fuel could have negative effects

The U.S. power / electric grid could be updated, safer, and/or nationalized

Cargo ships / cruises could have sails or use hydrogen / solar power

Texas could build out excess capacity for Ercot's power grid

Smart thermostats could be given away to ease blackouts during heatwaves and save energy

Power lines could be underground

Dams could harm river ecosystems and wildlife

Car racks could be reinvented to use less energy

Highways/roads could be solar powered

Bitcoin, cryptocurrency, and/or NFTs could have a large carbon/energy footprint

Gas stoves could be harmful to health and the earth

Hydrogen cars/planes could be better than electric cars/planes

Power stations could replace gas generators

Nuclear / radioactive waste could be used for energy or disposed of safely

Buildings could be energy positive

Algae could power buildings

Traders / banks could be prevented from manipulating energy / power markets

Energy from nuclear fusion could be possible

Nuclear power could be a risky solution to climate change

Waste could become energy

Solar panels could be spherical

Floating turbines could provide wind energy

Dead plants could heat homes, enrich soil, and sequester carbon

Inedible plant life could be turned into environmentally-friendly fuel and healthy sugar

Sewage could be converted into potable water and electricity

People could use and have access to community solar farms or solar gardens

Shoes could collect and store electricity from walking
