Clean Energy

Decarbonizing our planet

Decarbonizing our planet requires open minds to unite in a common thought: CO2 free air, clean land and sea. Unlike many that filter for solar, wind and hydro energies alone, we know there is much more to be done with state-of-the-art technologies.

Solar Energy

Radiation is not heat, its energy

In 1990, solar energy was just a dream. Today, it has exceeded all expectations and become a leading energy source throughout the world.

We believe clean and naturally free energy sources are the ones with the highest potential, yet we also understand that our planets natural mineral reserves are not infinite; are scars and will become ever more expensive to extract.

Why Orus

We are passionate entrepreneurs committed to supporting clean air, land and sea. We recognize humans’ failure to cleverly balance supply and demand and avoid self-satisfaction, wounding our planets long-term sustainability, and with it, that of human-kind.

We understand energy is one of the main foundations for economic development and believe clean power generation, controlled growth, and circular economies will prevail; humankind and nature will survive, and a better world will flourish”

Inexpensive, available, simple and yet day-lite limited

Technology

Photovoltaic technology is well known, simple to build, and so long as its minerals are not scars, will continue being produced with higher efficiencies and cost effectiveness.

Power

In theory, our sun can power the world. Photovoltaic modules are the basis for this type of power generation. Deploying it with minor environmental impact is essential to developing our energy infrastructure and sustaining a prosper economy for all.

Free Energy

Our planet rotates around its axis at 1.674 Km/hour. Solar energy on each part of the world is thus available only a limited number of hours a day. Storing part of its energy for later use provides longer hours of emission free energy and are thus essential to a net zero economy.

SOLAR & WIND

Solar Energy is among the least expensive to produce. It’s well-developed technology and simplicity to implement, make it a favourite across our planet. Wind, on the other hand has higher conversion efficiencies in many parts of the world. Both pose challenges to manufacturers, developers, constructors, and owners. Each though contribute to a cleaner emissions free air.

HIDROGEN & AMMONIA

Green hydrogen is produced through a process called electrolysis, which uses renewable energy sources like wind or solar power to split water (H2O) into hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2). H2 is then used in multiple applications. Its main challenge is transporting it across the globe.

Ammonia (NH3) is a compound made of nitrogen and hydrogen. It is a colourless gas with a pungent odor. In its liquid form, it is a common chemical that is easier to transport and store. It is used in agriculture, refrigeration, as a cleaning agent, in pharmaceuticals, chemical industry, and as a fuel source. The connection between green hydrogen and ammonia lies in the potential for green hydrogen to be a sustainable source of hydrogen to produce ammonia.

NEW ENERGY

Base-load energy produced by fusion, fission, nuclear, and other forms of massive energy production mechanisms will propel the industry beyond today. This development though still far in the coming, is vital for our planet’s green future. These energy sources will maximize energy generation in confined spaces and have minimum environmental impact and maximum per years hours of production.

Wind blows, and sometimes not

Wind Energy

Wind is free yet not always available. Measuring its stability, frequency, and characteristics is lengthy, and frequently highly complex. Predicting a wind farms projected power generation, especially considering the earths dramatic weather changes caused by global warming is a task for specialized professionals.

The farther we go to locations never explored, the harder it gets to install wind projects. Overcoming these challenges, and the transportation, logistics and construction ones requires detailed, and commensurate analysis of experts.

Manufacturing and recycling challenges

Battery Energy Storage

Whilst our planet struggles under extreme weather conditions and our economy fights to hold-on, our energy industry faces huge challenges.

Producing cost-effective, smart storage solutions, accessing the minerals at reasonable costs, and deploying them across the planet whilst ensuring their recyclability requires enormous political and economic efforts.

Production & Transportation challenges

Green Hydrogen & Ammonia

Green hydrogen is created by a process called electrolysis, wherein electricity from renewable sources is used to split the hydrogen molecules from the oxygen molecules in water. Heavy industries (steel, cement, etc.) and long-haul transport (boats, trucks, etc.) will benefit enormously from green hydrogen.

The hydrogen value chain is complex and capital-intensive. Many of the industry’s segments are not yet developing and those technologies and regulations that are developing fast are moving so quickly that staying up to date can be a challenge.

Safer, cleaner, predicable and free from CO2 emissions

Nuclear Energy

Nuclear energy fears often stem from concerns over the risk of accidents, nuclear waste disposal challenges, and a potential for proliferation of nuclear weapons.

Many countries still safely generate electricity with this technology. Many others have unforeseeably decommissioned thousands of megawatts before understanding if they could cover their own demand with other technologies. This, in turn, has forced the reactivation of coal and gas fired power plants, and in many cases, forced the reactivation of nuclear power plants developments despite popular beliefs and concerns.

In a world with increasing demand for steel, copper, gold and other minerals, a minimum capacity to recycle them, and an increasing demand for clean energy, nuclear energy is highly promising. It produces base-load power alike coal and gas but with zero CO2 emissions. Thorium reactors for example, are safer, and can be constructed and scaled significantly quicker than uranium. Thorium is extremely abundant, safer to dispose, and has a significantly shorter radioactive disposal time whereas it cannot be used to build nuclear weapons. Its passive cooling system also makes it the safest nuclear systems ever designed.
