Hydrogen Energy and Fuel Cell Primers is a series of concise books that present those coming into this broad and multidisciplinary field the most recent advances in each of its particular topics. Its volumes bring together information that has thus far been scattered in many different sources under...

This book presents an innovative concept for designing a 400 kV double circuit composite tower. The major challenges encountered by the authors in the electrical design process of the composite tower are addressed. They concern material selection for the full composite cross-arm core, electrical insulation...

Energie rinnovabili, energie alternative, risparmio energetico: sempre più spesso questi termini vengono impiegati alla stregua di luoghi comuni, sintomo che l’argomento è ormai di interesse generale. È fuor di dubbio che le energie rinnovabili, non solo nel prossimo futuro ma anche in un arco...

Il volume intende fornire una panoramica globale sugli aspetti tecnologici, progettuali ed economici dei sistemi di generazione di taglia micro e pico alimentati da fonte rinnovabile di tipo idrico. Sono trattate tutte le tematiche e le parti di cui è composto l’impianto, dalle macchine idrauliche...

This research book provides state-of-the-art advances in several areas of energy generation from, and environmental impact of, fuels and biofuels. It also presents novel developments in the areas of biofuels and products from various feedstock materials along with thermal management, emission control...

The new edition of this book incorporates the recent remarkable changes in electric power generation, transmission and distribution. The consequences of the latest development to High Voltage (HV) test and measuring techniques result in new chapters on Partial Discharge measurements, Measurements...

This book explores the philosophical understanding of the “energy consumption” in warehousing process that can be found in the literature. It presents known technical solutions that, if they are used in cold storage rooms, can effectively reduce energy consumption: through lower power consumption...

Energy Storage for Sustainable Microgrid addresses the issues related to modelling, operation and control, steady-state and dynamic analysis of microgrids with ESS. This book discusses major electricity storage technologies in depth along with their efficiency, lifetime cycles, environmental benefits...

Phase 1 of the EPSRC SUPERGEN Wind programme began in March 2006 and work continued under Phase 2 until March 2014. The strategic aim was to re-establish a strong research community in wind energy technologies, across the UK’s leading academic and industrial research organisations. UK Wind...

Electricity transmission and distribution (T&D) networks carry electricity from generation sites to demand sites. With the increasing penetration of decentralised and renewable energy systems, in particular variable power sources such as wind turbines, and the rise in demand-side technologies,...

Engineering Energy Aluminum Conductor Composite Core (ACCC) and its Application discusses this group of aluminum fibers that are characterized by their lightweight, high tensile strength, large current-carrying capacity, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, and small, linear expansion...

Utile e comodo vademecum per orientarsi nel Conto Termico tra incentivi ed ecobonus. Gli autori hanno voluto semplificare e chiarire le molteplici soluzioni esistenti per aiutare sia l’utente pubblico sia il privato. L’Unione Europea si trova di fronte a sfide senza precedenti, determinate da...

I recenti regimi incentivanti e il futuro scenario della Grid Parity richiedono soluzioni impiantistiche in grado di ottimizzare la risorsa energetica rinnovabile, permettendo di accumulare l’energia prodotta al fine di permettere il suo utilizzo nei momenti in cui non è presente la fonte rinnovabile....

La dipendenza energetica dall’estero e i cambiamenti climatici generati dalle attività umane ci impongono di agire con azioni mirate al risparmio energetico e all’utilizzo di fonti energetiche rinnovabili in sostituzione delle fonti fossili. Le biomasse sono, nel panorama delle fonti rinnovabili,...
