0:02:01 > 0:02:02PHONE RINGS

0:05:01 > 0:05:04Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon,

0:05:04 > 0:05:07and welcome to 2016 World Future Energy Summit,

0:05:07 > 0:05:09here in Abu Dhabi.

0:05:09 > 0:05:12To begin proceedings, I would like to introduce to you

0:05:12 > 0:05:15one of our country's most dedicated supporters of clean energy,

0:05:15 > 0:05:18one of the sponsors of this conference,

0:05:18 > 0:05:21and a visionary business leader admired far beyond the Arab world.

0:05:21 > 0:05:24Ladies and gentlemen, please put your hands together

0:05:24 > 0:05:26for Mr Saif al-Wasem.

0:05:26 > 0:05:28APPLAUSE

0:05:34 > 0:05:36Ladies and gentlemen,

0:05:36 > 0:05:40I have come today with one simple message.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Sustainable energy for all

0:05:42 > 0:05:45is both necessary and achievable.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48But we still need new inventions,

0:05:48 > 0:05:50new visions.

0:05:50 > 0:05:53One in every five people on this planet

0:05:53 > 0:05:55has no access to modern electricity.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57At the same time,

0:05:57 > 0:06:00our planet is heating up.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03Climate change threatens lives,

0:06:03 > 0:06:05peace and prosperity.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08We need to turn power on for every household,

0:06:08 > 0:06:11while turning down the global thermostat.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14We must act now

0:06:14 > 0:06:17to build a clean energy economy.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19We must invest.

0:06:19 > 0:06:21It's time to end energy poverty.

0:06:21 > 0:06:22Thank you.

0:06:22 > 0:06:24APPLAUSE

0:11:45 > 0:11:46Mr Sodergren.

0:11:46 > 0:11:47Welcome.

0:11:47 > 0:11:48Thank you.

0:11:48 > 0:11:52I'm Aslam. I'm the official guide of Masdar City. This way, please.

0:11:56 > 0:12:00- So, this is the first CO2-free city in the world, is it?- Yeah, true.

0:12:00 > 0:12:03The initiative of creation of this city has been taken

0:12:03 > 0:12:06by the leadership of Abu Dhabi, 2006.

0:12:06 > 0:12:09- Masdar in Arabic means source. - The source of what?

0:12:10 > 0:12:12The source of many things.

0:12:12 > 0:12:13Source of knowledge,

0:12:13 > 0:12:16innovation, development.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19- New inventions?- Of course.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22All of us, we work together to shape a city of tomorrow.

0:12:22 > 0:12:24Everything in Masdar City

0:12:24 > 0:12:26is built with one single purpose...

0:12:28 > 0:12:30Smart, clean energy.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33Oh, the PRT cars. I've heard about those.

0:12:33 > 0:12:34Yeah, it's 100% electric.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38No need for driver's licence. THEY LAUGH

0:12:38 > 0:12:39Welcome to future.

0:12:53 > 0:12:54Here we are.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56Source of energy.

0:12:56 > 0:12:58Largest solar plant in Middle East.

0:13:01 > 0:13:02I know what you're thinking about.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05- You do?- Yeah.

0:13:05 > 0:13:09Abu Dhabi is home to 8% of global oil reserves.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11At the current production level,

0:13:11 > 0:13:13we have enough to last 100 years.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15And you think, with all this,

0:13:15 > 0:13:18why the leader of these emirates

0:13:18 > 0:13:20committed billions of dollars

0:13:20 > 0:13:23in renewable energy and clean technologies?

0:13:23 > 0:13:25That's what you're thinking about, yeah?

0:13:25 > 0:13:26Well, sort of.

0:13:26 > 0:13:27HE LAUGHS

0:13:32 > 0:13:33You see?

0:13:34 > 0:13:36We are desert people.

0:13:36 > 0:13:37Feel this.

0:13:42 > 0:13:43- Hot, yeah?- Yes.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45Imagine living this.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49But you've made a whole life here.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51Living in this hot sand,

0:13:51 > 0:13:54where there is no water, no wind.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56All you get, heat,

0:13:56 > 0:13:59since early morning.

0:13:59 > 0:14:02For us, living on scarce resources,

0:14:02 > 0:14:04sustainable practices is not only slogan.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07That's how we learn how to live.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09That's why we believe in this.

0:14:10 > 0:14:12Really believe in this.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- So, what's next?- Next?

0:14:15 > 0:14:17What are you trying to find?

0:14:18 > 0:14:21As you say, Holy Grail.

0:14:22 > 0:14:25- Which is?- Storage.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27Cheap, reliable energy storage.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30Imagine how you keep the heat

0:14:30 > 0:14:32- when you don't need it without losing power.- Right.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36And you're letting it go

0:14:36 > 0:14:37when you need it.

0:43:49 > 0:43:51MOANING

0:43:59 > 0:44:00STRAINING SOUND

0:44:18 > 0:44:21SHOUTING ANGRILY:

0:44:21 > 0:44:22SHE SOBS

0:44:32 > 0:44:34SHE CRIES

0:46:15 > 0:46:16This way.

0:46:22 > 0:46:25This is Alexander Sodergren, of Energreen.

0:46:25 > 0:46:28- Thank you for coming on such short notice.- It's my pleasure.

0:46:28 > 0:46:31This is Claudia Moreno, head of our legal department.

0:46:31 > 0:46:32- Nice to meet you. - Miss Moreno. You, too.

0:46:32 > 0:46:35So, let's get you settled in.

0:46:35 > 0:46:37- If you follow me.- Good.

0:46:37 > 0:46:38How was your flight?

0:47:34 > 0:47:36DOG BARKS

0:49:14 > 0:49:18Working with superconductors is not new.

0:49:18 > 0:49:22In fact, it's been going on for over a century.

0:49:22 > 0:49:25How do we transport energy

0:49:25 > 0:49:28without losing some of it along the way?

0:49:28 > 0:49:31Well, that's a question that's been on the minds of scientists

0:49:31 > 0:49:34and engineers for as long as we've had electricity.

0:49:34 > 0:49:37So far, we've had to create

0:49:37 > 0:49:40extremely low temperatures

0:49:40 > 0:49:43in order not to lose power,

0:49:43 > 0:49:46and creating those low temperatures,

0:49:46 > 0:49:49in turn, demands more power.

0:49:49 > 0:49:52So, it has been a Catch-22.

0:49:53 > 0:49:58Now, we are on the verge of a breakthrough.

0:49:58 > 0:50:00What you are about to see

0:50:00 > 0:50:03is quantum levitation.

0:50:22 > 0:50:25The material this disc is made of

0:50:25 > 0:50:27is superconducting,

0:50:27 > 0:50:29which means that, at a low temperature -

0:50:29 > 0:50:33but a much higher temperature than we've been used to -

0:50:33 > 0:50:38it will hover between the magnetic fields.

0:50:38 > 0:50:42It will be quantum trapped.

0:50:42 > 0:50:44But it can still move freely.

0:50:50 > 0:50:52It will never stop.

0:50:52 > 0:50:56No friction, no loss of energy.

0:50:56 > 0:50:59This material can conduct electricity.

0:50:59 > 0:51:03With this we can transport energy freely,

0:51:03 > 0:51:04we can store it

0:51:04 > 0:51:07and use it when we want it,

0:51:07 > 0:51:09without loss.

0:51:09 > 0:51:11It is the future.

0:51:51 > 0:51:53Good?

0:51:53 > 0:51:54Yeah, very good.

0:52:15 > 0:52:18THEY CHAT INDISTINCTLY
