Primera nacion del sol

Alemania creo 214,000 empleos en energia solar desde el ano 2000 con un 20% de su electricidad procedente de fuentes renovables.

Guatemala es mucho mas rico en solar y viento que Alemania.



Ahorros de transportacion JPods 10x es el catalizador para el cambio de sistemas de energia. Gente:

  • Navegaban barcos antes de construir molinos de viento.
  • Remo canoas antes de construir vehiculos de agua.
  • Los ferrocarriles eran el catalizador para cambiar el sistema energetico de E.E.U.U. de los biocombustibles (heno y madera) a combustibles fosiles a finales de los anos 1800.

    Aprovechando JPods ahorros en gastos de trasporte por unos 10x,Guatemala puede crear mas empleo, mas rapidamente que hizo Alemania combinando:

    • La fuente sustancial de la energia solar de Guatemala.
    • La mano de obra trabajadora de Guatemala.
    • El benefico neto (multiplicado por 6) de energia solar sobre el petroleo para impulsar el transporte.

    < p> Al mundo le hace mucha falta y necesita al menos 4 milliones de kilometros de JPods,ET3,y otras tecnologias de transporte altamente eficiente. Alguien debe fabricar estos. El ahorro se paga 10 veces para la innovacion.

    El siglo de aprendizaje aplicado a la infraestructura de comunicaciones ya que los mercados libres fueron restaurados en 1982 estan esperando para ser aplicadas a las infraestructuras de transporte y energia. Guatemala puede ser un centro creando un ambiente acogedor para la innovacion. Thomas Edison, 1910:

      "la luz del sol se entiende de forma escaso y por lo tanto la electricidad tambien. Talvez son los mismos, la luz del sol es una forma de energia,y los vientos y las mareas son manifestaciones de la energia."

    "Los utilizamos? Oh, no! Quemamos madera y carbon,como inquilinos queman la verja frontal para combustible. Vivimos como intrusos, no como poseimos la propriedad.

    "Seguramente vendra un tiempo cuando el calor y energia se almacenara en cantidades ilimitadas en cada comunidad,todos reunidos por fuerzas naturales. La electricidad deberia ser tan barata como el oxigeno...."

    Lo siguiente son un objetivo,principios fundamentales,recursos,beneficios y acciones Guatemala pueden llevar a ser la primera nacion impulsada solar en el mundo.

    Objetivo: En 2013 crear un ambiente que invita a innovadores de modo que para 2016 se crean 20,000 empleos haciendo de Guatemala la primera nacion impulsada solar en el mundo. No ponerse a la altura,brinque delante.

    Acciones: El gobierno creara un ambiente acogedor para el transporte y la innovacion de energia mediante la concesion de via aceso a la zona por encima de las calles con las siguientes condiciones:

    • Construccion de redes de transporte son con fondos privados.
    • Eficiencia de las redes de transporte exceder 3 veces la de automoviles.
    • Seguridad de redes de transporte exceder 3 veces la de automoviles.
    • Se crean puestos de trabjo en Guatemala para construir las redes de transporte.
    • Las companias que construyen redes se paga el 5% de los ingresos brutos para el aceso no exclusivo a los derechos de paso.
    • Las redes seran regulados y asegurados de acuerdo con la ASTM Internacional F24 normas publicadas.
    • Las aprobaciones ambientales se deben conceder si las redes reducen la contaminacion en relacion a automoviles.
    • Las redes completadas hasta el junio de 2015 deben tener una licencia de operaciones de 20 anos.
    El gobierno hara su mejor esfuerzo para:
    • El respaldo de bonos gobernamentales para el uso de empresas en la cual son mas de 65% propiedad guatemalteco para adquirir las redes operativas una vez que estan certificadas y en funcionamiento. El objetivo es aumentar la rapidez de implementacion y apropiacion de las redes.
    • Como JPods demuestra que Guatemala puede ser energeticamente autosuficiente,basar la moneda(el Quetzal) en energia.. Las naciones ricas en petroleo se han hecho ricos explotando su energia petrolera y tecnologias de fabricacion. Guatemala tiene recursos de energia solar extensa. Haciendo la energia la base de dinero inducira a la gente a juntar y hacer comercialmente viable esa riqueza. Aqui hay una explicacion: Tenga en cuenta de que el 20% de la potencia de Alemania proviene de fuentes renovables desde el 2000.Guatemala es inmensamente mas rica en solar y viento que Alemania. Alemania es un exportador mayor de soluciones solares. Los abundantes recursos solares de Guatemala deben hacerla un importante fabricante y exportador de las tecnologias solares.
    JPods hace un mejor esfuerzo para:
    • Capitalizar con fondos privadas la construccion de una red de $300 milliones de dolares en la ciudad de Guatemala/Villanueva dentro de 24 meses que emplea 5,000 a 20,000 trabajadores para poner fin a la congestion en Guatemala/Villanueva.
    • Construir una red de $100 milliones en Villanueva.
    • Reclutar a los innovadores de energia y transporte para establecer el sistema y fabricacion en Guatemala.
    • Crear 10,000 empleos mediante una flota de rescate-carril de Guatemala.
    • Crear 10,000 empleos de la fabricacion y exportacion de la red de suministro.
    • Contratar la fabricacion,construccion,exportacion y ideas de la innovacion para impulsar a Guatemala.

    Fundamental Principles:

    • Life requires energy. More energy, more and better life. Less affordable energy, less life.
    • Oil rich nations have become rich selling oil and oil extraction technologies.
    • Oil is finite. Oil costs have increased 494% since 1998 as oil resources deplete and demand increases.
    • Haiti is solar rich. Leading the creation, manufacture and deployment of technologies to utilize solar power can make Haiti wealthy.

    Resources:

    • Haiti has vast solar and wind resources.
    • Haiti has a vast population of hard workers looking for work.
    • Innovators can be attracted to Haiti, and develop from within Haiti, by creating an inviting environment. In many nations power and transportation infrastructures are so controlled by vested interests that innovation is delayed or blocked.

    Benefits of becoming the First Nation of the Sun:

    • Create jobs. In 1982, US Federal courts declared Federal monopoly control over communication infrastructure unconstitutional and restored free markets. US firms innovated and lead deploying cell phones and the Internet, creating millions of jobs. Haiti can repeat that success in power and transportation infrastructure.
    • Self-reliance: By 2014 Haiti becomes a major manufacturer of lower-cost, sustainble energy technologies.
    • Exports: By 2015 Haiti becomes a major exporter of manufactured goods to a world hungry for lower cost, sustainable energy.
    • Imports: By 2020 create enough synthetic natural gas to end oil imports.
    • Education: By 2020 Haiti's education system is established as the world leader in solar collection and energy storage ideas.

    JPods Concept: 10x Paradigm Shift

    Business case for JPods



    JPods in Guatemala

    Start small, iterate relentlessly.

    Counting walking, ticketing and travel time from the Blue Cross, areas in Green are 10 minutes, areas in Yellow are in 20 minutes and areas in Red are in 30 minutes. Black lines represent computer instructions on distances for calculating travel times, not precise routes.

    Power of Niche Solutions: JPods, Bikes, LUVs (Local Use Vehicles), ET3 and others

    JPods are railroads that are grade-separated from the organic plane. People and animals move without risk of accidents from 2 ton vehicles. As more and more congested car traffic is removed from roads, roads become safer for alternative transportation solution. Bikes and Local Use Vehicles become safe to use.

    Since CargoPods, DirtPods, SewagePods, TrashPods and other specialty vehicles also remove truck traffic, lower the costs of moving goods and cost of highway repairs (road costs increase as the 4th power of axle weight). Connecting the city to rail heads, airports and harbors will substantially improve the cities options for resupply and waste removal.

    Freight railroads average 480 ton-miles per gallon and will be the logistical arteries. JPods exceeding 250 passenger-miles per gallon will be logistical capillaries. JPods niche is commuter-range transport of people, cargo and waste in payloads less than 1200 pounds. There are niches for Local Use Vehicles and High Speed networks.



    JPods formed an alliance with Club Car in 2009 to integrate Local Use Vehicles with JPods networks to provide safe, low cost, last mile solutions. JPods is working to deploying networks in Fayette County, GA. The County for Peachtree City.



    We will make it so vehicle such as the ELF can be transported by a JPods network.



    Highspeed networks will fill the niche of air travel at a fraction of the energy and cost.

    Match Stations to Communities

    Images by Robert Therrien and Judeth Van Hamm matching JPods technology to local esthetics. This network is primarily locally owned. Local interests will make the decisions.

    Example station:




    Fire, Earthquake and Beach Defense

    Rescue-Rail networks can be temporarily deployed to:
    • Mitigate transportation disruptions after an earthquake.
    • Deploy along contours to deliver water and help fight fires.
    • Create and then remove wave breaks.

    Security: Life Requires Energy. Less Affordable Energy, Less Life

    Joint Forces Command's Joint Operating Environment 2010 (JOE-2010) warning to all US military commands:
      "By 2012, surplus oil production capacity could entirely disappear, and as early as 2015, the shortfall in output could reach nearly 10 million barrels per day."

    "A severe energy crunch is inevitable without a massive expansion of production and refining capacity. While it is difficult to predict precisely what economic, political, and strategic effects such a shortfall might produce, it surely would reduce the prospects for growth in both the developing and developed worlds. Such an economic slowdown would exacerbate other unresolved tensions, push fragile and failing states further down the path toward collapse, and perhaps have serious economic impact on both China and India. At best, it would lead to periods of harsh economic adjustment. To what extent conservation measures, investments in alternative energy production, and efforts to expand petroleum production from tar sands and shale would mitigate such a period of adjustment is difficult to predict. One should not forget that the Great Depression spawned a number of totalitarian regimes that sought economic prosperity for their nations by ruthless conquest."

    "Energy production and distribution infrastructure must see significant new investment if energy demand is to be satisfied at a cost compatible with economic growth and prosperity."

    "The discovery rate for new petroleum and gas fields over the past two decades (with the possible exception of Brazil) provides little reason for optimism that future efforts will find major new fields."

    Foward by General James N Mattis





    Self-reliance Will Result from Free Market Solutions

    In 1984 communications infrastructure was restored to free markets resulting in millions of jobs, vast innovation and better service at lower costs. That same success can be repeated as transportation and power infrastructure are restored to free markets via Performance Standards. It is the interaction between customers and innovators in free markets that allows innovations to scale to commercial viability.

    After the 1973 Oil Crisis a Personal Rapid Transit network (PRT) was built in Morgantown, WV. It has delivered 110 million oil-free, injury-free passenger-miles. Car accident are mostly unnecessary. Few parents would allow their children to ride a roller coaster with the safety record of Department of Transportation highways. Radically more safer and more efficient transportation is well understood:
    • Freight railroads average 480 ton-miles per gallon. Yet the Interstate Highway network caused the loss of thousands of miles of railroads.
    • The Personal Rapid Transit network (PRT) in Morgantown, WV has delivered 110 million oil-free, injury-free passenger-miles since being built as a solution to the 1973 Oil Embargo. In the same period Morgantown PRT has been injury-free, the highway monopoly has killed 1.3 million Americans.
