From somebody who was looking at a global super grid. do you think thats possible? would it be helpful to balance demand in different parts of the world? i actually want to let danielle take that one. a global super grid sounds like your sort of scale with your quarter of a kilometre wind turbines. yes, thank you. what do you think? im so glad this question was asked because thats one of the... theres actually two components to the rollout of a significant scale of renewable energy that we haven...

To my right there. jane sutton from the royal academy of engineering. just on your point about balancing demand. a few years ago, there was a lot of chat about a european super grid to share renewable electricity, and weve even had a presentation from somebody who was looking at a global super grid. do you think thats possible? would it be helpful to balance demand in different parts of the world? i actually want to let danielle take that one. a global super grid sounds like your sort of scale w...

And the weather patterns over space by connecting more of our regions together. so the super grid idea, evenjust regionally connecting within a continent, gives us so much more flexibility and resilience and reliability of our grid and reduces the total amount of capacity that we need to have installed, because were seeing variation that we can tap into — if the sun is not shining here, the wind is blowing there. if its very hot and sunny here, youve got hydropower or wind power, in another re...

>> reporter: geoff, the hill changes colors because thats the old water line and this used to be under water, used to be lake mead. ill show you where it sits now. over the last 20 years or so the lake dropped about 130 feet in elevation. due to growing drought that scientists say is a combination of both natural weather patterns and human caused climate change and in may that water level hit below 1,075 feet which set off this first-ever water shortage declaration going to be issued in the next...
