This comprehensive overview of the topic perfectly balances expertise and intelligibility, allowing the reader to contribute to discussions about alternative energies. The new edition has six more chapters than its predecessor, taking into account such radical developments as tidal power stations, the Desertec project, and thermography of buildings. Furthermore, the critical debate about today's first-generation „biofuels“ is carefully presented, discussing promising solutions that do not trade food for fuel. In addition, this edition includes exciting new articles on thin film solar cells, seaweed, osmosis, hydrogen, and electric vehicles. Edited by experienced journalists and backed by striking full-color diagrams and simplified graphics, this book presupposes no relevant scientific background and is thus ideally suited to interested lay readers.
