A bit of a vision on a global energy transmission system



So basically this is what I imagine a a system that would
be capable of transferring energy from one spot on the
globe to pretty much any other.

First of all I believe somewhat of a reform on the distribution
level which would include neighborhood power
generation systems,  of modest power generation levels,
but would involve  co-operation within communities.  These
generation systems would not  necessarily produce a massive
or industrial level  of energy but would involve a substantial
reduction in  transmission and industrial scale power generation.

And you can also see this in individual
power generation systems...

But beyond that, to maintain an industrial infrastructure
requires industrial energy production.  So on a large scale
we would need to greatly expand our ability to share energy
on a large scale.  One idea connected to this would be a more
industrial scale power generation at a local or pre - distribution
level, which would create an energy supply independent of
the transmission system.

But in general, the system would be defined in a sense
as a process, evolving over time,  making gradual and
continuous performance and innovative progress.  Progress
on this system would also involve integration of the system
into general infrastructure.

These are just a few brief notes on what a global  energy
system might contain. But clearly a much different tone and
atmosphere of co-operation globally would be necessary to
succeed with such an enterprise.
