Description
"Power Generation by Renewables" will be essential reading for all those interested in the potential that renewable energy offers including: existing producers and those looking to develop alternative sources of renewable energy; organisations interested in electricity markets; and representatives of government organisations interested in renewable energy. The key topics include: sustainable sustained growth! renewable energy: 10 percent by 2010; landfill gas - the reliable renewable; combined heat and power from the small scale incineration of waste; effective risk management in energy from waste projects; small hydro from energy recovery in the water supply network; the technologies available and relative costs associated with reducing CO2 emissions from power stations; experience with power generation from biomass; experiences of operating a unique hybrid power generation system; diversity! Hydropower, hydrogen, transport, and industry.
