This volume is a true shelf reference, providing a thorough
overview of the entire renewable energy sphere, while still
functioning as a go-to information source for professionals and
students when they need answers about a specific technical issue.
Crafted over the last 15 years into a problem-solving tool for
engineers, researchers, consultants and planners currently working
in the field, as well as a detailed map of the renewables universe
for those looking to expand into new technological specialties,
Renewable Energy by Sorensen offers the most comprehensive coverage
of the subject available.
The book has been structured around three parts in order to assist
readers in focusing on the issues that impact them the most for a
given project or question. PART I covers the basic scientific
principles behind all major renewable energy resources, such as
solar, wind and biomass. PART II provides in-depth information
about how these raw renewable sources can actually be converted
into useful forms, transmitted into the grid and stored for future
utilization. Finally, PART III undertakes the aspects of energy
planning, environmental impacts and socio-economic issues on
regional and global levels.
In this fourth edition update, new material includes expanded
coverage of biofuels, solar conversion, biomass and fuel cells,
storage and transmission, and a new chapter on integrated
technologies to introduce the hybrid systems now being explored.
New surveys and the most recent research findings are included
throughout.
*New, thoroughly updated fourth edition of the authoritative field
guide to the entire Renewable Energy universe
*The only books to scientific principles and implementation
methods, technologies and socio-economics, environmental impacts
and cutting-edge advances, all in one volume.
*New material includes expanded coverage of biofuels, solar
conversion, biomass and fuel cells, storage and transmission, and a
new chapter on integrated systems.
