内容説明

The availability of clean, renewable power is without question going to be the defining challenge and goal of the 21st century, and wind will lead the way. Internationally acclaimed wind energy expert Paul Gipe is as soberly critical of past energy mistakes as he is convincingly optimistic about the future. The overwhelming challenge of transforming our world from one of fossil carbon to one of clean power seems daunting at bestand paralyzingly impractical at worst. Wind Energy Basics offers a solution. Wind power can realistically not only replace the lions share of oil-, coal-, and natural gas fired electrical plants in the UK but also can add enough extra power capacity to allow for most of the cars in the nation to run on electricity. Gipe explains why such a startlingly straightforward solution is eminently doable and can be accomplished much sooner than previously thoughtand will have the capacity to resuscitate small and regional economies.
