The reason electricity is fed to customers through the wire is so that it can be metered at each customer's premises. Morgan's insistence suggests taking 85 percent of the power produced to overcome the resistance within the wires used to reach its destination. If wireless technology had been universally implemented as per Tesla's wishes, the world's environment would be affected by 85 percent, leading to less pollution than we have today.

The increasing need for cleaner and sustainable energies provoked by the contamination emitted to the atmosphere made by petrol sources had made biodiesel an option to reduce those emissions by using a renewable, clean product as vegetable to impulse diesel engines. In this book we will try to expose the chemistry behind the processing of vegetable oil (waste or clean), the equipment, safety measures, and setup for the area to process a batch of biodiesel at home.

This is for those who wish to continue the journey we started in part 1. Now we are going to learn how to use the knowledge to streamline product development and manufacturing processes. The approach is simple and repeatable. We know that the most streamlined processes are the ones that comply with the behavioral model that we uncovered in part 1. We simply compare real implementations to the model, look for the gaps, and when we find gaps, we fix them. This is a repeatable approach for all products and everywhere within the product development process.

Anschaulich wird erklärt, was Energie eigentlich ist und wie sie für uns funktioniert. Am Beispiel des Alltags einer vierköpfigen Familie rechnen wir den Energieverbrauch durch, zeigen, in welchem Verhältnis Energiebedarf und Energiegewinnung stehen und wo Einsparmöglichkeiten stecken. Aber wie viel Energie benötigen wir täglich eigentlich, wofür benötigen wir sie vor allem, und wie schaffen wir es künftig, ausreichend Energie zu gewinnen, wenn wir auf fossile Brennstoffe verzichten?
