Very informative book August 8, 2007

This book is used as a study material at the Open University in Energy for a sustainable future course (T206).
The boook won't tell you how to fit a solar panel or a wind turbine on your roof nor how to connect your panels to the battery but it will tell you about various renewable energy sources and its pros and cons. The book looks at the energy needs on local, national and international scale, not on individuals scale. Each chapter also has a large list of references for further information.
There is a lot of calculations present so, you'll be able for example to calculate the area of solar panels required for your needs or prove that off shore wind turbines generate more electricity than on shore ones.
I really enjoyed this book and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in renewable energy.
