Energy Crisis

• The need for energy dramatically increased because of industrialization and Transportation. Natural
resources such as fossil fuels used primarily as a source of Energy are close to exhaustion and
limited supply. This scenario creates a challenge That our society now faces: the energy crisis, the
limited supply of natural resources Used for energy, and the increasing world demand for energy.
This is, to sum up, the Complexity of the topic, limited resources will run out if we have growing
demands And it is a real possibility for the future.

Causes of Global Energy Crisis


• Overconsumption puts strain on natural resources/fossil fuels, gas, oil, coal-Moreover, the use
causes pollution and additional problems to bear.
• Overpopulation increases the demand for the consumption of products. Everything Uses
transportation to move products that use petroleum.
• Poor infrastructure of power generation stations or equipment is also a reason for Energy shortage.
• Unexplored Renewable Energy Options. We should give more focus to the use of Renewable energy.
• Delay in commissioning power plants. The gap between the supply and demand Increases, causing
load-shedding and breakdown.
• Waste of Energy. We should conserve energy.
• Poor distribution systems cause frequent tripping and breakdown.
• Major accidents and natural calamities.
• Wars and attacks
• Miscellaneous Factors. This could include political events, severe weather Conditions, strikes, and
tax hikes that increase demand or hinder supply.

Effects of Global Energy Crisis


• Environmental Effects. The burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide and Other greenhouse
gasses that cause global warming.
• Increasing Prices of the Fuel Resources. The effect of this is in increasing prices of Daily products.
• Political Disturbance.
• Effect on Tourism Industry. Increased costs of tourism make it hard for individuals To afford.

Possible Solutions
• Action towards Renewable Resources such as steam, solar, and wind. Reduction of The world’s
dependence on non-renewable sources of energy.
• Buying of Energy- Efficient Products. An example is replacing traditional bulbs with LEDs for
household and commercial purposes.
• Lighting Controls.
• Easier Grid Access. Allowing people to get access to plug their alternative power Generation to the
grid and get credit for it.
• Energy Simulation. Redesigning building units to develop more energy-efficient Buildings, reducing
energy costs.
• Perform Energy Audit. Identification of areas in an office or home that are losing Energy to improve
efficiency.
• Stand on Climate Change. Every country should have a standard stand in the Reduction of
greenhouse emissions.

Energy Crisis in the Philippines


• The power supply shortage is common to Luzon and the whole country. According To the
government’s Power Development Plan for 2017 to 2040 forecasts, Communities face a rotating
brownout to cope with this situation. There will be an Annual 5 percent growth in the electricity
demand. It is predicted to reach 49,287 MW in 2040. Therefore, the country needs 43,765 MW of
added capacity to become Available. Conserving is crucial, but we need more power to deal with it.
We need to Boost and support all renewable energy alternatives such as windmills, solar energy,
And hydropower plants. Energy
