Renewable Energy

Robert Rapier

Chapter Chapter 3 in Power Plays, 2012, pp 25-44 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Henry Ford may have been a bit ahead of his time, but he was right about one thing: the energy of the future will have to come increasingly from renewable energy. Over the past 250 years, humans have consumed an ever-increasing amount of fossil resources like coal, oil, and natural gas. But as these resources are depleted, the world must transition to renewable sources of energy.
