Zusammenfassung:Chapter 1. Historical and conventional power production -- Chapter 2. Renewable energy technologies -- Chapter 3. Model 1: Grid-scale renewable energy -- Chapter 4. Model 2: Distributed renewable energy resources -- Chapter 5. Model 3: Community-scale generation and microgrids -- Chapter 6. The emerging renewable energy future
Following an overview of the technical and his-torical development of the electrical grid in the U.S. and Europe, this guide reviews hydropower, solar photovoltaics, wind energy, fuel cell, and battery technologies. Next, it presents models for the connection of these renewable energy sources from large-scale to on-site and community power/microgrids. Te models are explained through case studies in the developed and developing worlds that explore how technical evaluations are conducted, policy incentives implemented, and project finance applied. Considering the increasing importance of renewable energy for climate change mitigation, this book provides an overview of how renewable energy sources are integrated into the grid to promote better understanding among students and business professionals in the utility sector and across industries
