Energy Harvesting

Solar, Wind, and Ocean Energy Conversion Systems

Beschreibung

In the face of today's alarming energy crisis, advanced methods must be developed to increase the efficiency of devices for harvesting energy from environmentally friendly resources and converting them to electrical energy. Detailing the concepts and theory behind renewable energy systems, this important new work explains the various applications of utilization and grid connection methodologies for energy harvesting. It describes and compares solar, wind, ocean wave, ocean tidal, and ocean thermal energy harvesting along with many different topologies and many types of power electronics interfaces. Simulation models developed throughout the book provide insights to design, modeling, and analysis.
