  1. Strategic Analysis Adaptation Assessment An Alternative to the Economic Storyline Scenario

  2. Advanced Energy and Material Systems Lab Mechanical Engineering • Dr. Susan Krumdieck - Energy and Materials • Dr. Elijah Van Houten - Numerical Modeling • Dr. Mathieu Sellier - Optimization and Simulation Civil and Environmental Engineering • Dr. Andre Dantas - Transportation and Neural Networks Electrical Engineering • Dr. Wade Enright - Power Systems • Dr. Alan Wood - Power and Smart Networks Computer Science • Dr. Richard Green - Human Interface Technologies Geography • Asst. Prof. Simon Kingham - Transport

  3. How can we plan for a sustainable future?

  4. Economic Scenarios World Energy Outlook 2004 “World primary energy demand in the Reference Scenario is projected to expand by almost 60% between 2002 and 2030…” “High Oil Price Case, in which the average IEA crude oil import price is assumed to average $35 per barrel over the projection period.” “Global oil production will not peak over the projection period so long as necessary investments in supply infrastructure are made. New capacity will be needed to offset production declines and to meet demand growth.”

  5. World Oil Production by Source World Energy Outlook 2004

  6. A peak by any other name…

  7. Economic Scenario Should governments and businesses really be planning based on this kind of “information”? World Energy Outlook 2004

  8. If you want something done right… • Explain my idea of how to look forward • Apply the method to a case study • Compare the outcome to current Govt. strategy.

  9. Strategic Analysis Adaptation Assessment Strategy (noun) 1. planning of war 2. carefully devised plan to achieve a goal 3. adaptation important to evolutionary success

  10. Strategic Analysis Adaptation Assessment Analysis (noun) 1. separation into components 2. close examination of details of parts 3. description or assessment

  11. Strategic Analysis Adaptation Assessment Adaptation (noun) 1. process of changing to fit new circumstance 2. something has been modified for a purpose 3. development of physical and behavioural characteristics that allow organisms to survive in their habitats

  12. Strategic Analysis Adaptation Assessment Assessment (noun) 1. A judgment about something based on an understanding of the situation

  13. Strategic Analysis Adaptation Assessment Method: 1. Identify and Characterize the Activity System 2. Identify the Adaptation Issues and Risks 3. Create Transformation Concepts 4. Develop Strategic Adaptation Assessments

  14. Define Activity System Identify the Adaptation Issues What is the Problem? What poses risks to these activities? Strategic Analysis Adaptation Assessment Generate Transformation Concepts What kind of systems wouldn’t have these problems? Or face these risks? Strategic Analysis What capability or technology would mitigate the risk? Strategic Assessment

  15. Let’s try to get the whole picture…

  16. Case Study Define Activity System Personal Transportation

  17. Identify the Adaptation Issues What is the Problem? What poses risks to these activities? Case Study Personal Transportation World Energy Outlook 2004

  18. Global Oil Production will Peak and Decline 60 Identify the Adaptation Issues What is the Problem? What poses risks to these activities? 50 Discovery 40 Production Billions of Barrels per year 30 20 Projected Discoveries 10 1930 1940 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2010 2020 2030 Case Study Personal Transportation

  19. Identify the Adaptation Issues What is the Problem? What poses risks to these activities? Case Study Personal Transportation The "Hockey Stick" Mann, M.E., Bradley, R.S. and Hughes, M.K., 1999

  20. Generate Transformation Concepts What kind of systems wouldn’t have these problems? Or face these risks? Case Study Personal Transportation

  21. Case Study Strategic Analysis What capability or technology would mitigate the risk? Personal Transportation A technology that would apportion and manage sales of constrained fuel supply. • Fuel Supply Disruption • Fuel Supply Decline • Fuel Consumption Reduction

  22. Strategy Assessment Case Study Personal Transportation What do we do now? Research and Engineering Development: Immediate: Constrained Fuel Supply Allocation and Distribution System Continuing: Fossil Fuel Reduction Long Range: Non-Fossil Fuel Activity Systems

  23. Compare SAAA to MED

  24. MED Strategy for Oil Shortage • Measures to Improve Supply – Release stocks form NZ petroleum reserve to the market Domestic production increased Petroleum product specifications relaxed • Measures to Restrain Demand – Appeals made to the public via public information campaign to voluntarily save fuel, speed limit reduction Government compulsion used to restrain demand, prevent hoarding and distribute a limited amount of fuel – (non-specific) Substitute alternative fuels (non-specific) Sustainability?

  25. New Zealand Energy Strategy • Use Bio-fuels – Alternative Fuels • Increase Vehicle Efficiency • Shorter, Fewer Motorized Trips • Electric Cars, Plug-in Hybrid Cars • Public Transport to Ease Traffic Congestion • Improve Public Transport to Reduce Road Costs • Ensure 90 Day Reserve of Oil Sustainability?

  26. How does my SAAA method stack up? • Adapting to new circumstances • Evolution to goal of Fossil-Free Activity Systems • This may be what Sustainability Engineering is!
