Electricity from Sunlight, hochgelobt für seine ansprechende Gestaltung, seinen verständlichen Stil und seine klaren Erklärungen komplexer Sachverhalte ohne viel Mathematik, wurde gründlich überarbeitet und aktualisiert. Das Buch beschreibt die Fortschritte auf dem weltweiten Photovoltaik-Markt, bei der Wirtschaftlichkeit und Installationsbasis. Kernaspekte der 2. Auflage: - Aktuelles zu den Fortschritten der Photovoltaik, relevantes neues Material zu netzgekoppelten Systemen. - Noch detailliertere Erläuterung der wissenschaftlichen Prinzipien der Photovoltaik, von Solarzellen, Modulen und Systemen. - Aktuelle Informationen aus dem Photovoltaik-Markt, inkl. Umwandlungseffizienz und Ausbau netzfreundlicher Kraftwerke. - Fragen am Ende der Kapitel unterstützen Dozenten und Studenten durch Anleitungen zum Selbststudium. - Neue Kapitel zu Fertigungsprozessen, Materialien und der Verfügbarkeit sonstiger Ressourcen. - Neuer Abschnitt zu Photovoltaik-Großanlagen mit Informationen zur Ausweitung der globalen Kapazität, zu Photovolatik-Großanlagen und erschwinglichen Lösungen zur Bewältigung fluktuierenden Einspeisung von Energie. - Systemanalyse neuer Anwendungen im Bereich günstiger Photovoltaik-Anlagen wie bei der Energiespeicherung und Wasserentsalzung. - Erheblich umfangreicher Abschnitt zu Wirtschaftlichkeit und Umweltaspekten mit Erläuterungen zu den Energiekosten im Vergleich zu den Investitionskosten, ROI und Lebenszyklusanalyse. Die 2. Auflage von Electricity from Sunlight: Photovoltaics Systems Integration and Sustainability ist eine Einführung in die Photovoltaik, richtet sich an Einsteiger, die die Grundlagen von kompletten Photovoltaiksystemen verstehen möchten, sowie an Studenten im Grund- und Hauptstudium in Kursen zu erneuerbarer Energie und Photovoltaik. Es behandelt in einzigartiger Weise die Nachhaltigkeit neuer umwälzender Technologien und ist sowohl für Systemanalysten als auch Strategen in der Energiepolitik gut geeignet.
VASILIS M. FTHENAKIS is the founder and director of the Center for Life Cycle Analysis (CLCA), Department of Earth and Environmental Engineering, Columbia University, New York, USA. He is also a senior scientist emeritus at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) where he conducted research for 36 years and directed the National Photovoltaics (PV) Environmental Research Center and several international networks. Dr. Fthenakis is the coauthor and editor of four books and about 400 scientific publications on topics at the interface of energy life cycles and the environment. Currently, he is leading research on solar desalination, energy systems modeling, life-cycle analysis, chemical process safety, and PV recycling. Vasilis Fthenakis is the recipient of the William R. Cherry Award 2018. The Cherry Award recognizes an individual engineer or scientist who has made a significant contribution to the advancement of the science and technology of photovoltaic energy conversion, with dissemination by substantial publications and presentations. PAUL A. LYNN obtained his B.Sc.(Eng) and Ph.D. degrees from Imperial College London, UK. After several years in the electrical/electronics industry, he lectured at Imperial College and the University of Bristol. As a retired academic, Dr. Lynn's long-term interest in renewable energy has led to a trilogy of Wiley books (including this one), and three solar-powered boats. He is the author of ten other books and numerous technical papers and articles.
