5 Engineering Technology Goals in the Energy Value Chain
2
• Adopting clean energy technologies
• Developing advanced materials
• Establishing standards
• Reducing environmental impact– Water-energy nexus– Reduction in packaging– Zero manufacturing waste to landfill
3
Global Supply Chain for Industry
4
A sustainable and economically viable supply of energy is essential for economic growth and security
Population Growth by 2025

“The future is inherently uncertain and always will be.”
— Energy Technology Perspectives 2010
7
“Managing the risks of climate change will require a profound systematic and global transformation in the production and consumption of energy.”
— Global Energy Technology Strategy Program
8
Revolutionize Electricity Production
– Efficiency
– Climate change/ Sustainability
– Renewables
– Standards
– Smart grid
9
Reinvent Transportation
– Advanced materials– Fuel efficiencies– Fuel options– Systems integration
10
Transform Infrastructure
“Cities are the growth engines of the future” — Green City Index, Siemens AG
11
• New technologies• New materials• New standards• Increased efficiency
“New low-carbon technologies will be needed
to sustain emission reductions beyond 2030,
particularly in end-use sectors such as transport,
industry and buildings.” — Energy Technology Perspectives 2010
12
Promote Sustainable Industry
Empower Innovation
“Just as energy is the basis of life itself, and ideas the source of innovation, so is innovation the vital spark of all
human change, improvement and progress.”
—Economist Ted Levitt

• Half of world’s population already live in urban areas
• 2.6 billion lack basic sanitation
• 1.3 billion lack access to clean water
• 1.4 billon lack access to electricity

7 billion people on Earth
ASME will serve as an essential energy technology resource and a leading advocate for technically sound energy
16
ASME will foster a broader, competent, vibrant and more diverse engineering workforce with sustained engagement in ASME over all career stages.
17
ASME will collaborate to develop and provide locally relevant engineering resources that advance public safety and quality of life throughout the world.
