This particular book is a collaboration focused on Renewable energy in Africa.More info: The developing nations of Africa are popular locations for the application of renewable energy technology. Currently, many nations already have smallscale solar, wind, and geothermal devices in operation providing energy to urban and rural populations. These types of energy production are especially useful in remote locations because of the excessive cost of transporting electricity from largescale power plants. The application of renewable energy technology has the potential to alleviate many of the problems that face Africans every day, especially if done so in a sustainable manner that prioritizes human rights.

Renewable Energy in Spain $117.9 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Spain has the target of generating 30 of its electricity needs from renewable energy sources by 2010, with half of that amount coming from wind power. In 2006, 20 of the total electricity demand was already produced with renewable energy sources, and in January 2009 the total electricity demand produced with renewable energy sources reached the 34.8. Some autonomous regions in Spain lead Europe in the use of renewable energy technology, and plan to reach 100 renewable energy generation in a few years (objective all electricity from renewable sources, AERS). Castile and Len and Galicia are especially near this goal, producing in 2006 70 of their total electricity demand from renewable energy sources, and 5 communities produce more than 50 from renewables.

Darrieus Wind Turbine $76.47 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Darrieus wind turbine is a type of vertical axis wind turbine used to generate electricity from the energy carried in the wind. The turbine consists of a number of aerofoils usuallybut not always vertically mounted on a rotating shaft or framework. This design of wind turbine was patented by Georges Jean Marie Darrieus, a French aeronautical engineer in 1931. The Darrieus type is theoretically just as efficient as the propeller type if wind speed is constant, but in practice this efficiency is rarely realised due to the physical stresses and limitations imposed by a practical design and wind speed variation. There are also major difficulties in protecting the Darrieus turbine from extreme wind conditions and in making it selfstarting Author: Miller, Frederic P./ Vandome, Agnes F./ McBrewster, John Binding Type: Paperback Number of Pages: 104 Publication Date: 2010/07/01 Language: English Dimensions: 5.98 x 9.01 x 0.24 inches

Investment in Wind Energy in Europe $101.96 Wind energy industry is young and has been growing rapidly for the past 15 years, with over half of global installed wind power capacity located in Europe. Although there has been a large amount of literature focusing on the development of wind power in Europe, little econometric research has been done in this area. This book sets to find out whether there is a direct relationship between the fuel prices and the level of investment in wind power in the EU countries. The research is based on six year panel data on the European Union countries. The results of the research are as follows. No direct link has been found between the fuel prices and the investment in wind power. Moreover, wind energy support schemes which are unobserved factors in the model, have been found to have an impact on the investment in wind power capacity. On top of it, GDP per capita has a positive and statistically significant effect on the investment in wind power, suggesting that European countries in the higher income range were more likely to invest in wind power in 20012006 rather than those in the lower income range. This work should be especially useful for energy policy researchers and economists.

Promotional Discourse of Wind Energy $113.11 In recent years, an increased global awareness of the worlds energy challenge has fostered a corresponding global demand for producers of alternative energy resources to become effective promoters of their products and brands benefits. Despite the topics relevant nature, however, little research has so far set out to explore the specific discursive and promotional means by which alternative energy resources are promoted today. With special focus on three of the worlds leading wind turbine manufacturers promotional discourse of wind energy, this book therefore investigates how Vestas, Suzlon and General Electric promote wind energy and their brands through multimodal and persuasive means in webmercials on the Internet. In doing so, it proposes that an interrelatedness of the fields of multimodality and persuasion has significant consequences for the promotion of wind energy in the three types of webmercials. The study is considered relevant for students of communications and discourse fields and professionals who wish to become literates of promotional discourse related to the worlds energy challenge.

Wind Turbines (UK Domestic) $54.86 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Wind turbines have been on the United Kingdoms domestic market many years, but their popularity and public awareness is now increasing substantially. Claims about their efficiency and productivity are under some debate due to the disparity of manufacturers forecasts with case study results. The prime problem is that they are routinely being installed in areas with wind speeds much too low to realise a useful level of energy return. Windpowered electricity generation requires wind speeds above those found in the great majority of inhabited areas. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F.
