Description

Using limited resources in sustainable ways, energy engineers and technologists have made people's lives comfortable and affordable with efficient and cost-effective technology, from air conditioners to waste fuels. But to accommodate the expanding world population, the global supply of energy has been increasingly strained. Energy efficiency, energy conservation through energy management, and the use of renewable energy sources are three of the major strategies that can provide the energy and energy services for the world's population and economy. Energy managers, researchers, scholars, and policy makers need to know all of the aspects of energy technology in order to tackle this crisis.

Vol. 1 Green Technology and Renewable Energy
This volume is based on the present need to understand the principles and utility of renewable energy and green technology to minimize dependency on fossil fuels in global development. Renewable energy is the best and cheapest source of energy as an alternate resource. There is massive potential for renewable energy globally, including in India. The efficient utilization of renewable energy resources could minimize the impact of climate change globally.

Vol. 2 Handbook of Sustainable Energy
Handbook of Sustainable Energy could be something like: 'an attempt to contribute significantly to the knowledge in sustainability issues from the point of view of energy'. This book is an interesting effort to shed some light on such a complex topic as energy use and sustainability. This comprehensive guide to sustainable energy builds robust connections between abstract theory and practical applications, providing students with a global perspective on this most timely subject. Includes a succinct refresher on essential thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer, giving students a solid foundation on which to build. Introduces technologies for hydropower,

Vol. 3 Renewable Energy: Resources, Challenges & Applications
The importance of renewable energy resources to any society comes from the potential to address the need for clean, sustainable and affordable energy for all. In this volume, an overview of emerging energy technologies is provided to address the energy system challenges. Selective research inputs are reviewed and organised with the aim to inform a broad range of beneficiaries from public readers to subject experts of the recent developments, and to provide critical analysis of the latest developments.
