CLEAN and RENEWABLE ENERGY PRODUCTION

According to the World Renewable Energy Council (WREC), by the year 2100, the world's population will increase to 12 billion and the worldwide energy demand will increase steeply to about five times the present scenario. Researchers are striving to find alternative forms of energy, and this quest is strongly forced by the increasing worry over climate change and planetary heating. Among the diverse varieties of alternative energy sources, biomass has the singular advantage of being carbon neutral. The carbon that is discharged to the atmosphere during its exercise is read back during the utilization of biomass resources for energy output. Currently, biomass provides approximately 13% of the world's primary energy supply and more than 75% of global renewable energy. Indeed, it is estimated that bioenergy could contribute 25–33% of the global energy supply by 2050. Continued adoption of biomass will require efficient conversion rates and avoidance of competition with food and fibers.

This book focuses on the recent practices in clean energy and renewable energy. The contributors highlight how newer technologies are reducing the dependency on non-renewable resources, benefiting the researchers who are working in the area of clean and renewable energy production. This new volume will also benefit mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, and bioengineers as they will be updated with the recent work progressing all over the globe. It will benefit the professionals working in the renewable energy sector such as solar, wind, hydrothermal, hydrogen, and bioenergy, including professors, research scholars, industry professionals, and students working in this field.

Preface

In an era marked by growing concerns over climate change, environmental degradation, and the sustainability of energy resources, the quest for cleaner and more sustainable energy production has never been more critical. As the world’s demand for energy continues to rise, so too does the urgency to transition from traditional fossil fuel-based sources to cleaner and renewable alternatives. The title Clean and Renewable Energy Production encapsulates a journey into the heart of this transformative endeavor. This book delves into the profound changes taking place in the realm of energy, exploring the innovative technologies, policy shifts, and scientific breakthroughs that are shaping the landscape of energy production and consumption.

All the chapters in the book follow a comprehensive exploration of various clean and renewable energy sources, ranging from solar, biofuel, and hydrothermal, to ocean energy, carbon neutrality, hydrogen energy, and wind energy. Throughout this book, not only the technical aspects of clean energy production are examined but also the broader implications for our planet and society. Moreover, the economic, geopolitical, and social ramifications of transitioning to renewable energy sources, as well as the challenges that must be overcome to make this transition a reality on a global scale.

Moreover, Clean and Renewable Energy Production will serve as a valuable reference for students, researchers, policymakers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the multifaceted facets of sustainable energy. Each chapter is meticulously crafted to offer a balanced blend of scientific explanations, real-world case studies, and forward-thinking visions.

Moreover, this book stands as a testament to the power of human ingenuity and determination in the face of one of the greatest challenges of our time. The journey towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy future is not without its obstacles, but it is a journey that promises a world of untapped potential, innovation, and hope. As you embark on this reading adventure, may you find inspiration and knowledge that empower you to play a role in shaping the future of energy production and the well-being of our planet.
