Energy From the Desert: Practical Proposals for Very Large Scale Photovoltaic Systems (v. 2)

Energy From the Desert: Practical Proposals for Very Large Scale Photovoltaic Systems (v. 2) By Kosuke Kurokawa, Keiichi Komoto, Peter van der Vleuten, David Faiman
Publisher: Earthscan Publications Ltd 2007 | 248 Pages | ISBN: 1844073637 | PDF | 65 MB


*"Never has very large scale photovoltaics received such an exhaustive analysis" -- Photon International, from review of the first volume *A unique, extensive, and high-level international study, representing the accumulated research of the world experts from an International Energy Agency (IEA) program *Includes case studies of worked projects, in full-color throughout The world’s deserts are sufficiently large that, in theory, covering a fraction of their landmass with PV systems could generate many times the current primary global energy supply. This new "Energy from the Desert" volume examines and evaluates the potential of very large scale photovoltaic power generation (VLS-PV) systems. Following from the success of the first book on the subject, the authors present practical case studies of both virtual and real projects based on selected regions (including the Mediterranean, Sahara, Chinese Gobi, Mongolian Gobi, Indian Thar, Australian Desertm, and the US) and their specific socio-economic dynamics, and argue that VLS-PV systems in desert areas will be readily achievable in the near future. As the essential companion to the previous IEA volume, it reiterates and develops key concepts introduced by the original study and provides firm practical recommendations to achieve long-term targets for policymakers and investors.
