The book also features new expanded chapters on tidal project proposals, tidal bunds, enhanced geothermal technology, fast-moving areas in marine energy and the development of floating wind turbines. Power Generation Technologies is more than just an account of the technologies - for each method the author explores the economic and environmental costs and risk factors. Each technology is covered using the same basic criteria, so that comparisons between technologies can be made more easily. Those who are involved in planning and delivering energy, including engineers, managers and policy makers, will find a guide through the minefield of maintaining a reliable power supply, meeting targets on greenhouse gas emissions, and addressing economic and social objectives in this book. 0aElectric power production. 7aElectric power production.2fast0(OCoLC)fst0090547527aBiofuels.2inist27aElectricity.2inist08iEbook version :z9780128182550  a7bcbcccopycatd2encipf20gy-gencatlg  2ddccBKe23h621.3121iB745pkENGm2019n0  00102ddc4070aCSPCbCSPCcENGd2024-11-13l0oENG 621.3121 B745p 2019p028521r2024-11-13 14:29:53t1-1w2024-11-13yBK  c28442d28442
