This textbook is intended for an audience with little or no power
engineering or renewable energy background. The book covers
electric energy from alternative energy sources, including solar,
wind, water, hydropower, geothermal, and ocean energy. Core issues
discussed include wind and solar resource estimates and analysis,
solar thermal systems, solar collectors, photovoltaics, wind
turbines, geothermal energy, energy small hydropower, wave, tide
and ocean energy, and characteristics of energy conversion,
control, and electrical aspects. This is one of the most
comprehensive textbooks for students, engineers, and professionals
who study renewable energy. There are several questions and
problems, presented with increasing difficulty, most of which focus
on practical applications. The materials and problems are drawn
from the author's extensive experience in renewable energy
analysis, assessment, design, control, and the power electronics of
wind and solar energy conversion systems. Each section of the book
contains several solved examples, as well as practical and advanced
discussions, that instill critical thinking and apply to industrial
applications. The book is divided into eight chapters and covers
the most important aspects of renewable energy sources and
technologies.
