Scenarios for a future electricity supply : cost-optimised variations on supplying Europe and its neighbours with electricity from renewable energies / Gregor Czisch ; translated from German by HE Translations. - London : Institution of Engineering and Technology, c2011. - xl, 580 p. : ill., maps ; 24 cm. - IET renewable energy series ; 10 . - IET renewable energy series ; 10. .
Includes bibliographical references (p. [493]-563) and index.
Introduction -- Executive summary -- Other research on the energy supply of the future -- The use of solar energy for electricity supply -- Wind power -- Biomass utilisation -- Hydropower -- Utilisation of geothermal energy -- Downdraught energy towers -- Secondary energy carrier hydrogen for provision of backup power -- Fusion power plants -- Fossil-fired plants -- Fossil-fired power plants -- Electricity consumption and transport -- Power plant scheduling and selection planning -- Electricity supply scenarios in various technical and political contexts -- Concluding reflections.
This title pursues the fundamental idea of using renewable energies in a rational economic way to come to a climate friendly electricity supply.
