Opis

Green Energy: Technology, Economics and Policy is a comprehensive academic volume that examines the technical, economic and policy dimensions of renewable energy systems in the context of the global transition away from fossil fuels. Edited by experts in the fields of energy science and engineering, the book explores how renewable sources such as wind, solar, biomass, tidal and geothermal energy can be harnessed efficiently and cost‑effectively, and discusses the challenges involved in converting them into useful forms of energy such as electricity, hydrogen, or clean transportation fuels. The authors link energy science and technology with market dynamics, economics, public policy and strategic planning, offering insights into the ways research, innovation, investment and government‑industry partnership can accelerate the adoption of green technologies. Throughout the text, the focus is on reducing costs, improving efficiency, overcoming barriers to market penetration and designing policy frameworks that support sustainable energy systems. The book also addresses contemporary concepts such as Green New Deal‑style models, in which objectives like job creation and mitigation of climate change are pursued through coordinated technology deployment and policy action, making it a valuable resource for students, professionals and policymakers interested in the intersection of clean energy technology, economic incentives and environmental regulation.
