Preface This book provides a solid, quantitative and uptodated coverage
for a wide range of sustainable low carbon electricity generation
technologies. Three types of technologies are presented, renewable
energy, advanced technologies, and clean coal, tackling the
problems of pollution, energy shortage and climate change. Eleven
chapters are constructed, with Chapter 1, 5, 7 and 11 contributed
by Dr Changdong Sheng, with Chapter 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9 and 10
contributed by Dr Jiufa Chen. Chapter 1 introduces electricity
generation related energy and environment issues. Although
renewable energy is crucial and promising, clean coal technologies
still have indispensable importance to achieve sustainable energy
supply in the coming decades. Since solar energy is the dominant
renewable, Chapter 2 presents solar energy fundamentals: its
formation, trajectory, atmospheric attenuation and solar energy
distribution. Chapter 3 introduces solar PV technology, wafer or
thin film based, from materials (silicon, metal compounds or
organic materials) to PV cell, module and power plants. Chapter 4
dedicates to concentrating solar thermal power technologies, with
solar heat receivers made of parabolic troughs, Fresnel reflectors,
tower collectors, or dish collectors; using various types of heat
transfer fluids and heat storage systems; elaborated hybridization
and operation strategies. Chapter 5 is about hydropower, with three
topologies of hydropower plants introduced, impoundment,
runoffriver, and pumped storage, with different turbine
technologies. Chapter 6 deals with wind energy, wind distribution,
wind energy capture system, turbine control strategies, onshore and
offshore wind farms. Chapter 7 is about biomass, from various
biomass resources to their utilization technologies, including
energy recovery from municipal wastes. Chapter 8 tells about
geothermal energy, its formation, distribution, resource survey,
elaborated with three types of geothermal power plant technologies
based on dry steam, flash steam and binary cycle. Chapter 9
presents advanced fuel cell electricity generation technologies,
from five type fuel cell configurations to fuel cell stack and
power generation system. Chapter 10 presents clean and high
efficiency coal electricity generation technologies, from reducing
pollution and emission to improving efficiency, from retrofiting
existing coal plants, to constructing advance systems, such as
supercritical and ultrasupercritical conditions, pressurized
fluidized bed combustion, and integrated gasification combined
cycle. Chapter 11 focuses on technologies for reducing greenhouse
gas emission from fossil fuel power plants, CO2 capture, storage
and utilization. For each topic, the theoretical background is
introduced, practical engineering considerations associated with
designing systems and predicting their performance are provided,
and methods to evaluate the economics of these systems are
presented. The book is intended for a mixed audience of engineering
and other technologyfocused individuals, undergraduate,
postgraduate students. The book has been designed to encourage
selfteaching by providing completely worked case studies, typical
parameter values and design guidance. Each chapter ends with a set
of exercises that provide added practice for the student, which
should also facilitate the preparation of homework assignments by
the instructor.The authors wish to express their thanks to School
of Energy and Environment of Southeast University for the
publication funds. Appreciations are given to Nari Group
Corporation and to Trina Solar China for sharing the PV technology
data. The authors also wish to thank Miss Nan Wang and Mr Kunming
Zhuang for their assistance in editing Chapter 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9 and
10. Contents Chapter 1Energy and Environment1 1.1Sustainable Development and Mitigation of Climate Change1 1.2Sustainable Energy4 1.3Mitigation of CO2 Emissions7 1.4Renewable and Advanced Electricity Generation
