Long-Term Integration of Renewable Energy Sources Into the European Energy System Tapa blanda - 1998

Descripción de contraportada

A sustainable European energy system, mitigating climate change and solving a number of other key environmental problems, will require massive reliance on renewable energy sources combined with a sharp increase in energy productivity. Considering that most of the technoplogies necessary for such a development are already available, today's most important questions are: How can these technologies be integrated into the European energy system? What are the costs and benefits of such a strategy? What are the major bottlenecks and obstacles to such a development? What measures are necessary to support this development? In the book a "sustainable scenario" and a "fair-market scenario" are developed as a means to demonstrate that concepts for a sustainable future Eutopean energy supply are technically and economically feasible. In addition, they provide a positive vision for decisions to be made in the near furture.
