Concerns about energy resources and the environmental impact of
energy use will continue to be important globally. World
Scientific's unique series of books on Current Energy Issues is
intended, in part, as an expansion and update of the material
contained in the World Scientific Handbook of Energy. Each volume
will focus on related energy resources or issues and will contain a
broader range of topics with more explanatory text.This Solar
Energy volume covers a variety of approaches to the use of solar
energy. These include large scale photovoltaic production of
electricity as well as more local applications in the home and
businesses. Similarly, there is an extensive discussion of large
scale solar thermal electricity production and smaller scale uses
such as solar water heating, home heating and cooling plus crop
drying. There is also discussion of more forward-looking
technologies including the production of fuels using artificial
photosynthesis and the production of biomass.
