DESCRIPTION:
Is this the book you are looking for? AdamSmythe Before I go any further, let me address the question I raised in the title of this review. Very briefly, this book is right for you if what you are looking for is a comprehensive textbook or reference with broad-based coverage of renewal energy topics (see below). The target audience is researchers or students in the renewal energy field, such as those at universities, engineering schools an. Technical, comprehensive, authoratitive D. Brennan The intended audience for this book includes engineers, engineering students and researchers. Physics and math make regular appearances, as is proper in a book that lays out the core technologies and their dependencies of a broad range of renewable energies. Generation, storage and transmission are discussed as well as the practical engineering and scientific challenges and developments.Ther. A good overview on renewable energy resources, technologies, and impacts This book covers an important subject, renewable energy, which is discussed at length in three separated sections, namely resources (part I), technologies (part II), and impacts (part III). Because renewable energy lies at the crossroads of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, environmental science, and economics, the book is rather interdisciplinary and offers interesting connections a
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 m
"This book is written for scholars and research students, going well beyond more popular texts and covering in detail the physics, engineering, environmental impacts and socioeconomics of all renewable energy sources. 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. It is suitable as a textbook at the undergraduate and graduate level for scientists and engineers, and could also be used by economists and planners. For teachers, there are mini projects and exercises after each Part…e text is clear and the units are still SI."--AIE’s EnergyNews, December 2011, Volume 29, No. It includes many hundreds of references…. Finally, PART III undertakes the aspects of energy planning, environmental impacts and socio-economic issues on regio
