Description

As the global energy landscape shifts away from fossil fuels and nuclear power, understanding the full scope of renewable energy is essential. While renewable sources offer a way to reduce carbon dioxide and ionizing waste, they also present unique local environmental challenges that require careful management. This book by Routledge examines the transition from a world currently 80% dependent on fossil fuels to one powered by sustainable alternatives. With renewable sources currently providing about 15% of total energy, the text explores the emerging conversion technologies necessary to make the eight primary renewable sources viable for global use. Readers will gain insight into the complexities of managing the environmental impacts of these technologies. It provides a necessary perspective on how to mitigate local effects while working toward a future where renewable energy can replace finite resources. This is an important resource for those studying the technical and environmental realities of the global energy transition.
