Integrated Energy Systems for Multigeneration

With the worldwide energy demand increasing the consequences of meeting supply and current dependency on fossil fuels, investigating and developing sustainable alternatives to the conventional energy systems is a growing concern for global stakeholders. Integrated Energy Systems for Multigeneration looks at how implemented measures to limit GHG emissions must consider smart utilization of the available limited resources and employing the renewable resources through integrated energy systems and the utilization of the waste energy streams. Considering the main concepts of thermal and conventional energy systems through detailed systems description and methodologies of analyses, performance assessment and optimization, and with illustrative examples and case studies this reference looks at producing power and heat with cooling, freshwater, green fuels and other useful commodities designed to tackle rising greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere. Analyses the links between clean energy technologies and achieving sustainable developmentIllustrates several examples of design and analysis of integrated energy systemsPerformance assessment and optimization global case studies are included
