Holger Thorsten Schubart’s Vision at the G20 Brazil: A Call to Action

November 19, 2024 at 16:38 PM EST

Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished leaders of the G20,

It is both an honor and a solemn duty to stand before you today. Here in Rio de Janeiro, a city that embodies the beauty and resilience of our planet, we gather under the banner of building a just world and a sustainable planet. The weight of these words is undeniable. Yet, as we discuss solutions to pressing global challenges, we must confront a sobering truth: the cost of inaction on climate change is no longer theoretical. It is tangible, measured in lives uprooted by floods, communities scorched by wildfires, and economies destabilized by resource scarcity.

This summit’s priorities—social inclusion, institutional reform, and sustainable development—are interconnected strands of the same tapestry. The thread that binds them is energy. Not just energy in the traditional sense but sustainable, equitable, and transformative energy that powers progress without compromising the future.

The True Cost of Delay

Each moment we hesitate is a moment stolen from future generations. Consider the financial implications alone: billions in disaster recovery, trillions in lost productivity, and unquantifiable losses in biodiversity. But beyond numbers lies the human cost—families displaced, livelihoods destroyed, and hope eroded. The energy transition is not a choice; it is an imperative.

Yet, it is not enough to champion renewable energy. Solar panels and wind turbines, while revolutionary, are only part of the solution. Without integrating energy efficiency and advanced technologies into our strategies, we risk falling short of the transformative change our world so desperately needs.

Innovation as the Catalyst for Change

For the past decade, I have had the privilege of leading an extraordinary team of over 100 international scientists and engineers at the Neutrino Energy Group. Together, we have delved into the uncharted realms of material science, quantum technology, and artificial intelligence. Our mission has been clear: to redefine what is possible in energy generation and utilization.

Today, I am proud to share the fruits of that labor. Neutrinovoltaic technology, a groundbreaking innovation that harnesses the kinetic energy of invisible particles such as neutrinos and other non-visible forms of radiation, is no longer a vision—it is a reality. This technology represents a seismic shift in how we perceive and produce energy. Unlike traditional renewables, neutrinovoltaic systems operate independently of environmental variables such as sunlight or wind, providing a constant and reliable power source.

Real-World Applications: Beyond Theory

Neutrinovoltaic technology is not confined to laboratories or theoretical models. It is already being deployed in practical applications.

The Neutrino Power Cube, a compact, scalable energy generator, offers a decentralized solution for communities that lack reliable access to power. Imagine remote villages powered sustainably without the need for expansive grid infrastructure.
The Pi Car Project is poised to redefine transportation by leveraging neutrinovoltaic technology to enable vehicles to generate their own energy. This groundbreaking innovation means that, even while parked outdoors, vehicles equipped with neutrinovoltaic systems can harness energy from neutrinos and other non-visible radiation. By eliminating the need for traditional refueling, this project holds the promise of significantly reducing emissions and decreasing reliance on finite resources. While still in development, the Pi Car Project represents a bold step towards a sustainable and self-sufficient future for mobility.
Project 12742 exemplifies the Neutrino Energy Group's innovative spirit, aiming to revolutionize global communication using neutrino-powered protocols. This ambitious initiative—named after Earth's diameter—seeks to transcend traditional technological limits, enabling seamless, sustainable connectivity worldwide. By leveraging the expertise of an international network of scientists, Project 12742 is poised to redefine how we connect and collaborate, forging a future of boundless global communication.

These examples are not just technological achievements; they are blueprints for a sustainable future.

Overcoming Barriers to Progress

Yet, we must acknowledge the obstacles that lie before us. Financing remains a significant hurdle, particularly for emerging economies where the need for sustainable energy is greatest. Political inertia and the entrenched interests of legacy energy markets further complicate the transition. It is here that leadership—your leadership—becomes indispensable.

The G20 represents 85% of the global economy and wields unparalleled influence. By prioritizing investments in next-generation technologies like neutrinovoltaic systems, you can catalyze a global shift. Reforming international financial institutions to prioritize sustainability and innovation can unlock the resources needed to bridge the energy gap. Policies that incentivize energy efficiency alongside renewable adoption can accelerate progress, particularly in regions experiencing rapid infrastructure growth, such as India and sub-Saharan Africa.

A Vision for Global Collaboration

This is not a challenge that any single entity or nation can tackle alone. Collaboration between governments, private enterprises, and scientific communities is essential. The Neutrino Energy Group stands ready to partner with nations and organizations committed to leading this charge. Our technology is a tool, but its success depends on collective action and shared vision.

The energy transition also offers an unprecedented opportunity for equity. By ensuring that emerging economies are not left behind, we can foster a global energy ecosystem that is not only sustainable but also inclusive. For instance, efficient design and construction of buildings in fast-growing economies could save billions in energy costs while reducing emissions significantly. Integrating advanced technologies like neutrinovoltaic systems into these efforts amplifies their impact.

Closing Thoughts: A Call to Action

Distinguished leaders, we stand at a crossroads. The decisions made here in Rio will reverberate for generations. The question is not whether we can afford to act but whether we can afford not to.

As we chart the path forward, let us embrace innovation not as a risk but as an opportunity. Let us view the energy transition not as a burden but as a chance to redefine progress. And let us remember that the cost of inaction is borne not by us alone but by every soul who inherits this planet.

The future is not written. It is ours to create. With vision, courage, and collaboration, we can turn this summit's motto—Building a Just World and a Sustainable Planet—into a reality that endures. Thank you.
