Power Generation Technologies, Third Edition is a comprehensive guide on the full spectrum of power generation options, from traditional fossil fuels and more established alternatives, such as wind and solar power, to emerging renewables, such as biomass and geothermal energy. New to this edition are expanded chapters on tidal project proposals, including tidal bunds, enhanced geothermal technology, and fast moving areas in marine energy and the development of floating wind turbines. With updated cost figures in each economic section that reflect the latest estimates from given sources and technology solutions, this book provides an ideal resource on the topic.
Each technology is covered using the same basic criteria so that comparisons can be easily made. Those involved in planning and delivering energy, including engineers, managers and policymakers, will find this a resourceful guide that takes them through the minefield of maintaining a reliable power supply, meeting targets on greenhouse gas emissions, and addressing economic and social objectives.
