This book bringing together leading researchers in the field of
renewable energy to discuss sustainability on a broad scale and to
examine the status quo of renewable energy industry development in
a global context. The volume starts with the European Union, then
reviews current trends in the United States as well as the Middle
East, Central Asia, and Latin America. It moves on to analyze the
German transition to one hundred percent renewable energy economy
and energy systems (Energiewende) with a climate protection plan
and sustainable economic development; and continues on to examine
the determinants of the adoption of sustainable solutions in
Finland and discuss the renewable energy agenda in the European
Union with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals at its core.
Climate change has become one of the main global drivers for policy
and this book discusses both it's over all global development as
well as spotlighting localized progress across multiple continents.
Over one hundred and fifty countries have developing sustainable
energy policies, tax incentives, and laws. China remains the leader
in renewable energy generation; and countries including the United
States, the UK, India, Spain, and Turkey, compete in the Renewable
Energy Sector to attract investments. In 2018, global investments
in renewables exceeded $200 billion. The state of Bahia in Brazil
has been experiencing a surge in wind energy production; and public
policy has had a positive effect on that expansion. Kazakhstan is a
country with great renewable energy prospects, particularly in
wind, hydropower plants, and solar energy. This book is a
comprehensive overview and invaluable reference for all those in
the renewable energy sector.
