- Summary
- "Renewable Energy Systems: The Choice and Modeling of 100% Renewable Solutions sets forth a straightforward, comprehensive methodology for comparing different energy systems' abilities to integrate fluctuating and intermittent renewable energy sources. Dr. Lund makes clear that it is the work of professionals in the renewables field to raise awareness that alternatives do exist and that it is indeed economically and technically viable to choose renewable energy systems. To aid renewable energy professionals in these tasks, the book provides all the tools and methods needed to model, analyze, and choose the optimal renewable energy system to fit any project's needs. It also presents key strategies on how to overcome the inherent lethargy of entrenched institutions that seek to reinforce the status quo when confronted with the need for radical technological change."--Jacket
