Books like Renewable energy resources by John Twidell

An authoritative examination of the global sustainable energy crisis, detailing how energy consumption figures are estimated, the factors that distort them, and the renewable alternatives that offer viable solutions.

"This book is a comprehensive discussion and economic analysis of large scale solar power systems, specifically referencing critical issues related to design construction and financing. The book provides practical design, installation, and financing guidelines for large-scale commercial and industrial solar power projects. Engineering design and construction methodologies provide a step by step walk-through of all aspects of solar power systems. Design methodologies outline the specific requirements of solar and electrical design and construction documentation in meticulous detail, which can readily be applied to ground mount, roof mount, building integratedbuilding integrated photovoltaic (BIPV), and carport-type solar power projects. In view of the importance of solar power systems as a viable present and future energy resource, the book includes a dedicated chapter on smart grid transmission and large-scale energy storage systems"--

Discusses the basic principles of energy and describes how it is extracted from its sources and put to use within the natural context and in human invention.

A comprehensive guide to installing and using solar power for your home.

"Fundamentals of Renewable Energy Processes deals with the fundamental mechanisms and processes that underpin energy management and form common elements of all energy process courses. This text contains the technical detail necessary to understand the engineering principles that govern renewable energy application at many different levels. Organized according to the main forms of energy - heat engines, hydrogen energy, energy from the sun, and wind and water energy - with an introductory chapter of basic energy terms, this is the most comprehensive text for engineering students. From fuel cells, electrolyzers and processes for hydrogen production to biomass and windmills, the author thoroughly examines all aspects of renewable energy processes."--BOOK JACKET.
