Where will our electricity come from in the future, and how will we
use it? The UK is aiming for a 60% reduction of 1990 carbon dioxide
emission levels by 2050, yet the electricity industry and patterns
of electricity use must change radically if this is to be achieved.
This authoritative overview analyses a range of possible scenarios
for the future of electricity in the UK. Specialists in various
renewable electricity technologies demonstrate the potential each
has to play a significant role. Other routes to a low-carbon
electricity system are also considered, including nuclear power,
improved power electronics, a wider use of superconducting
technology, and micro-generation systems including combined heat
and power. The book concludes by examining opportunities for demand
side improvements in architecture, industry and transport. Each
chapter is written by a technical expert in a manner accessible to
readers interested in energy technology, policy and economics.
