Beschreibung
Die 2. Auflage von Renewable Energy and Climate Change betrachtet zunächst unseren Hunger nach Energie: Wie viel Energie brauchen wir? Wieviel Energie wird verbraucht? Wie viel kostet diese Energie? Im Anschluss geht es um den Klimawandel und die Ursachen, um Energieverschwendung und Energieeinsparung. Das letzten Kapitel gehen auf die vielen alternativen Energiequellen ein, wie Photovoltaik, Solarthermie-Systeme und -Anlagen, Windkraft, Wasserkraft und Geothermie. Auch der aktuelle Stand der Technik bei Energie durch Biomasse, bei Wasserstoff und Brennstoffzellen werden untersucht. Abschließend richtet sich der Blick in die Zukunft und auf positive Beispiele nachhaltiger Energieformen.
- Bietet einen Überblick über alle modernen Technologien für eine alternative Energieerzeugung.
- Zeigt den Zusammenhang zwischen Energieverbrauch, den Preisen für Energie und dem Klimawandel.
- Gibt Hilfestellung für die Senkung des eigenen Energieverbrauchs.
- Durchgängig mit farbigen Abbildungen und Fotos, Datendiagrammen, einfachen Berechnungen und Ergebnissen, Textkästen mit wichtigen Informationen.
- Enthält Beispiele für erneuerbare Energien.
