Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems for Water Resource Management (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

This book presents a comprehensive and contemporary approach to the relationship between water, energy and climate change, highlighting how Hybrid Renewable Source Systems (HRES) can serve as an important foundation for a sustainable future. Starting with the basic forms of energy and the current active landscape with the imperative need for a transition to RES, it proceeds to explore water use, the hydrological cycle and modern challenges in water supply, while at the same time examining the impact of climate change on water and energy resources. RES-based desalination and the various energy storage technologies that comprise the hybrid Renewable Source systems are key aspects of the analysis, which is complemented by examples of real-world applications on off-grid Greek islands that face challenges in meeting their water and energy needs. With a combination of theoretical knowledge, practical solutions, and field study, the book offers a rational framework for energy transition and sustainability.
