RENEWABLE ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES With the goal of accelerating the growth of green energy utilization for the sustainability of life on earth, this volume, written and edited by a global team of experts, goes into the practical applications that can be utilized across multiple disciplines and industries, for both the engineer and the student. Green energy resources are gaining more attention in academia and industry as one of the preferred choices for sustainable energy conversion. Due to the energy demand, environmental impacts, economic needs, and social issues, green energy resources are being researched, developed, and funded more than ever before. Researchers are facing numerous challenges, but there are new opportunities waiting for green energy resource utilization within the context of environmental and economic sustainability. Efficient energy conversion from solar, wind, biomass, fuel cells, and others are paramount to this overall mission and the success of these efforts. Written and edited by a global team of experts, this groundbreaking new volume from Scrivener Publishing presents recent advances in the study of green energy across a variety of fields and sources. Various applications of green energy resources, modeling and performance analysis, and grid integration aspects of green energy resources are considered. Not only laying out the concepts in an easy-to-understand way, but this team offers the engineer, scientist, student, or other professional practical solutions to everyday problems in their daily applications. Valuable as a learning tool for beginners in this area as well as a daily reference for engineers and scientists working in these areas, this is a must-have for any library.
