The Future of Humanity's Energy No One Knows About | Terraform 

Founder speaks in 2x Speed 😅

See kids ADHD isn't necessarily a restraining factor when it comes to innovation and creativity if you apply it in the right way you too can be like this guy

im subbing just because dude's verbal bandwidth smokes the competition.

6:35 "Door or no door" 😂😂 Love the recent news reference

Watched this at 0.75x speed. 😂 But holy smokes! Casey is amazing and clearly a genius. I'm blown away by Terraform's proposition and I hope they can crack it, especially the $1/kg Hydrogen.

I love this dude! Incredibly smart, loves what he is talking about, loves teaching about it, he understands the economics, he understands the engineering and how they fit together. I love that energy! And how you presented him and his company was amazing too, you let hm tell the whole story, that is a great interviewing skill. S3 has already become my new favorite engineering channel. Very much reminds me of the honeypot documentaries but for engineering stuff and not for software. I can't believe this channel is as young as it is. Please keep on doing what you are doing for a long time. ❤

It's all about cost. Five plus years ago I saw a story about someone doing similar in Britain. They were doing direct air capture and water electrolysis, the only difference was their reactor creates liquid hydrocarbons for use in an ICE tractor. Their rector setup wasn't cheap.

Its like looking at Bezo's before he was filthy rich.

Man... you are becoming my favorite channel. Each video is such a top class content. I really wish you the quickest road towards few millions of subs.

In over 10 years of watching RU-vid this is the first video I’ve watched entirely through on 0.75x, that’s impressive

greatest youtube channel i ever stumbled upon... I'm so inspired every time. I would love to work with this man, he is the best type of teacher if you are genuinely curious

wonder what the entire efficiency of the system is, seems like it involves multiple energy-intensive steps, direct air capture, water electrolysis, and the conversion of hydrogen and carbon dioxide to hydrocarbons.

Finally I watched it completely and this is just amazing. 17:00 speaks the volume and depth of his genuineness.

Man Casey is one of the most interesting and genuine person that I have seen for quite a long time. Just wow!! So thank you for an awesome video and for sharing the work they are doing!

Incredible video! Thanks to S3 and Terraform Industries for sharing

one thing that is always forgotten in schemes like this is the transportation of the end product... natural gas and that to transport large amounts of it quickly so pumps and pipelines are needed, one also must not forget that both natural gas and hydrogen MUST be liquified to be of any practical use in motor vehicles (land, sea and air) and even when liquified (which also requires a huge amount of energy (NG requires about 40% of the energy content to cool and compress) that it must be kept refrigerated, not just below freezing but below dry ice temps... so long term storage in not practical... an NO discoveries will change this fact as the critical temps of both NG and H are physical laws and their overall densities are much below gasoline and diesel fuel so require much more room to store, 4-5x for H2 in liquid form,

you need 15982 horses to match the power output of a 747

"We're bottling it at the source!" I love that.

knowing people like this irl is rare I love this personality type gives ya a warm feeling when they rant about interests

Perfectly done. The words that come out of KCs mouth are really something to pause and think about

This was great, altho I felt a bit like I was getting scammed. He's so transparent about everything... except the hard economic numbers. How can you talk with a straight face about supplying all the energy for all the people on the entire planet and not respond to all the critics who say this simply can't make economic sense at this point in time or any time soon? You can do anything with chemistry except for alchemy so the numbers are the most interesting part! Great video tho and seems like a genuine company.

The technology seems really promising, but I need to see the numbers. Does the solar generation minus the conversion and transportation losses provide significant value over just using the solar directly on the grid during the day?

And a whiteboard with excellent penmanship….TRULY ASTONISHING 🥳 Thanks for the content S3 ☺️

Great episode. I wish that you'd linked casey's blog and twitter in the description, especially after telling us to visit them.

I like that in intro the finite aspect of hydrocarbons is the focus not always cc

This sounds like something we as humanity needs to invest more time and money.

Man, you are fast and funny! curious and courageous! Go on - all the best :)

Love it! Our kind is growing ;) Greetings from Germany

This guy's talking speed scratches my brain in a good way. Finally I don't have to speed a video up.

Excellent video. Casey speaks very well and the idea could be extremely impactful.

Finally, someone who talks fast enough for my brain!

Much more enjoyable video at .75x, im wondering if sped up in post processing. Great video!

I like the way you think, I am a firm believer in design/build what is needed!

Awesome video, great content! Love to see this stuff! Keep it up! Good luck to terraform big problems to solve, can’t wait to see what they do

Amazing episode. If we take this technology and combine it with other innovative energy systems, humanity will have a bright future. Thanks for sharing.

I found this episode great! The one thing I would suggest make this kind of content even better, would be to have a critical voice somewhere. What do "traditional minds" think of these kind of ideas? If the chemistry tech is from last century, why was this not done 10 years ago?

This is great work that will hopefully see roll out very soon. It is a continuation of work first demonstrated by Proffesor Tony Marmont in the UK back in 2010. The equipment which fits in a shipping container still sits on his land in Leicestershire (pronounced lestersheer). I am sad to have heard yesterday that Tony passed away about ten days ago after dedicating his life to supporting innovation around the world especially in renewable energy. Casey, like Tony is a pioneer and this tech needs everyone's support to ensure we achieve a cleaner world and really begin to seriously address climate change.

I hope this guy's project pulls through. This would be revolutionary.

Very interesting work and well presented. A few questions; where will you get enough fresh water in the desert for the solar array reactor? Have you thought about using thermal solar to heat up the water? I know there is some cutting edge solar arrays being designed and built using mirrors and evacuated tubes to generate large amounts of heat to drive turbines, storing the heat in molten salts used as a battery. You might implement something like this in your reactor for a heat source. ?. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work.

If this is sitting somewhere in the desert, where does the large volumes of water come from that is required?

I have never been this inspired. Thank you for this.

this is increadible - great edit

brilliant brilliant, love this channel, thank you for what you do

This guys is a mad man, I love it

what a brilliant man and a brilliant idea!

Super cool! He is one of the openminded positive creators of our future. I dont like chemistry in school but it really can come alive.

Great video stay on the course and stay blessed

Love this! The fact that we can harness the power of the sun is pretty cool

"you'd really struggle to feed even one household with 5 acres of farmland" 😂 no dude, you got that one wrong. the average american household contains roughly 3 people, and if those 3 people need 2500kcal/day that works out to under 3 million kcal/yr. a subpar acre of wheat will yield 4 million kcal/yr. corn will yield 2x and potato will yield 3x. not even getting into tree crops or polyculture. 5 acres of diversified crops in rural idaho will easily cover the calorie needs of 5-10 households. in LA prior to urbanization, 5 acres could support over 60 human diets annually. for someone who is spitting numbers so fast, your error here undermines the rest of your pitch.

Love it, solar and wind making nat gas is so smart. Making it cheap is key. Well done and lets get this guy funding.

"You would really struggle to feed one house with five acres of farmland." Tell me you know nothing about farming without telling me you know nothing about farming...

You guy's are amazing!!!

Dude! Your videos are amazing. Love your work, and especially this episode. Take care.

Absolutely amazing 🚀🚀

Now here's a problem solver when it comes to climate. A breath of fresh air compared to all of the problem creators.

thats a great idea and i truly hope you will succeed in the market with it

Good one, Be Happy!😊

Great project

Some things take time and this vid is necessary

This was awesome to watch! Makes me wish there was a Minecraft mod that I could part take in this too haha.

I had to apply .75x playback speed for the first time.

Making methane from waist carbon or carbon capture is a great technology to be developing for wide scale implementation. In the not to distant future, this will be the primary means of obtaining the hydrocarbons needed to maintain our standard of living and technical infrastructure. Thanks for your efforts. I hope you can make a cost-effective system and lead us into the future of continuing prosperity.

Very good ❤

Really fantastic solution!!

Wow amazing. Even if he doesn't succeed, theres so much cool research going on here that will find an application in the future. Good job.

This was a fun and interesting video. I hope it works out!

This video feels like it's 2x speed. Great stuff

Excellent video. Make more similar.

vertical hydroponic algae oil takes care of all the hydrocarbon issues here in earth, a few companies are doing it worldwide.

Finally someone doing something practical to solve problem of lowering CO2 and store extra renewable energy

Bro you guys are going places

Super cool.... so long as the sun shines.

the channel name being s3 and seeing the word terraform in the title had me expecting this to be a cloud computing related vid lol

3:36 perhaps the most inspiring statement I’ve ever heard

Good rate of communication. I just about managed to keep up with one or two rewinds.

Keep going!

A good market for a more compact version of this setup would be the RV market. You could eliminate the need for propane tanks and have the machine run the entire thing. A generator would be used for the excess to top up the batteries while the machine constantly runs the fridge, air conditioning/ heating, Stove and Oven. It would be a great test of the system’s capabilities as well.

Brilliant! Thank you!

Finally someone who can hild my attention

Can you imagine a DIY solution similar to a power wall that can be in a garage or basement etc that has access to solar and external venting to produce independent natural gas per household

Lord this whole video feels like a fever dream

this is incredible, i have been fascinated by electrolysis for so long and came across other vids from some universities about electrolysis and hydrocarbon synthesis, thank you so much and i intend on studying your work and using it for inspiration!! like in usa we in aus have tremendous solar potential, thanks again ^__^

Super cool. Hope this goes well. I´ve been thinking about putting the solar arrays on huge ships that operates close to the poles to increase the daylight time. These will unload the fuel as is done today since they are ships. Ships are expensive and I have not done the math, but ships will be needed to move the fuel anyways I think. Running a system like this works pretty bad during winter, when the need for fuel is the greatest (if you live far from the equator).

The hero we need

Amazing, what a genious!

Amazingly Brilliant! Thank you for sharing this brilliant video. I hope that I may use Terraform' s newly discovered smart technology soon! It is the way to go! Greetings from Madang, Papua New Guinea!

I’d love to see someone run the numbers on this, the key seems to be the energy economics of solar panels over time (location + output) and then also capital costs

6:35 This is a good point, but the _issue_ with outsourcing energy requirements to non-human-respiratory areas, is that it produces high-entropy waste. It's not as collectively efficient as burning ATP, since that burns pretty hot as is, and the waste products can be further metabolised.

"Door or no door, that's a lot of power." Quote of the day!

This is why nuclear power is king in that the ability to produce methane and hydrogen to fit with our hydrocarbon infrastructure is paramount

I thought I left video playback on 2x

Love his energy. The super cheap hydrogen generator would be the most compelling thing though. If he could make and sell that first. That could fund the rest of his project.

extraordinary.

I think I'm falling in love!!!🤩

Protect this man at all costs!

4:54 “This x 400,000,000 is how humanity will get its hydrocarbon energy...” 😳

EXCELLENT :D

This is Amazing Technology!!! I would love to try this in my ICE gas engines! Very Inspiring!

Looks like a great company to work for

OMG I love this!!! ❤
