Intended for engineering students, this book presents the most profound and concise analysis of conventional and renewable energy technologies that we have come across. The text includes a comprehensive presentation of the theoretical and operational efficiencies of conventional steam cycle, combined-cycle, and cogeneration power plants, along with emerging technologies such as: fuel cells, Stirling engines, reciprocating internal combustion engines, microturbines, concentrating solar power arrays, biomass technologies, micro-hydro, wind turbines, photovoltaic arrays, and solar hot water systems. The text also includes an excellent section on the economics of distributed energy resources, and the history of the electric power industry.
