Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effects of environmental, economic, social, political and technical factors have led to the rapid deployment of various sources of renewable energy-based power generation. The incorporation of these generation technologies have led to the development of a broad array of new methods and tools to integrate this new form of generation into the power system network. This book, arranged into six sections, highlights various renewable energy based generation technologies, and consists a series of papers written by experts in their respective fields of specialization.The Handbook of Renewable Energy Technology will be of great practical benefit to professionals, scientists and researchers in the relevant industries, and will be of interest to those of the general public wanting to know more about renewable energy technologies.
Download or read book Geothermal Wind and Solar Energy Applications in Agriculture and Aquaculture written by Jochen Bundschuh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-08-02 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The agri-food chain consumes about one third of the world’s energy production with about 12% of it for crop production and nearly 80% for processing, distribution, retail, preparation and cooking. The agri-food chain also accounts for 80-90% of total global freshwater use where 70% alone is for irrigation. Additionally, on a global scale, freshwater production consumes nearly 15% of the entire energy production. It can therefore be argued that making agriculture and the agri-food supply chain independent from fossil fuel use has a huge potential to contribute to global food security and climate protection not only for the next decades but also for the coming century. Provision of secure, accessible and environmentally sustainable supplies of water, energy and food must thus be a priority. One of the major objectives of the world’s scientists, farmers, decisions makers and industrialists is to overcome the present dependence on fossil fuels in the agro-food sector. This dependency increases the volatility of food prices and affects economic access to sustenance. This book provides a critical review of recent developments in solar, wind and geothermal energy applications in agriculture and the agro-food sector such as processing, distribution, retail, preparation and cooking.

Download or read book Solar Water Pumping written by Robert Foster and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-07 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pumping water is a universal need and a major energy challenge, especially where electrical service is absent, expensive or unreliable. Water demands are greatest when the sun shines most intensely. Could there be a better power source for pumping, than the sunshine itself? Over a million solar pumps are already in use for irrigation, livestock, pond and stream management, water treatment, homes and communities, emergency relief, government and recreational facilities, and more. They are rapidly replacing hand pumps, engines, windmills, and even public grid power. To succeed, designers, suppliers, funders and owners need to understand the unique aspects of this technology. This comprehensive and unique volume fills a major gap in the literature on this rapidly-growing industry. Three pioneering authors share over 80 years of combined solar pumping experience in private, public and educational sectors. They describe the theory and practice of solar pumping, including small, medium and large scale approaches, for the developing and the developed world. The book covers solar power, pump and control technologies, system sizing and design, storage and back-up, installation, operation and maintenance, and remote connectivity. It presents accessibility solutions for small farms and villages, as well as advice for involving communities, business, NGOs and financial institutions, based on the diverse experience of the authors. Examples with full colour illustrations and photos are included throughout. Real world case studies are presented from around the world, including Africa, Asia and the US, plus a ten-year follow-up study of more than 200 systems in Mexico. Overall, the volume will serve as a standard reference for years to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water pumping is a big job. Solar electric (PV) powered water pumps are the most effective way to pump your Deep Well, or shallow pond, river, lake or stream with high performance, reliability, and no fuel-costs. Is your Well, Pond, or Lake at a remote site? Solar electric photovoltaic (PV) panels, at historic low prices, lower costs and can be your water pumping solution. Water your livestock, irrigate your orchards, gardens, fields, or farmlands with this Easy Step-by-Step Guide complete with specific examples of water pumping equipment for different situations. Pump water from your well, or shallow surface source directly with Solar PV panels. Size your solar water pumping system with this Step-by-Step Guide to defining, and building your solar water pumping project. Solar water pumping systems include solar PV panels, a controller, and the Pump itself. The examples included in this book match the model pump, with the solar power supply required to produce a given average water production per day.

This book was released on 2019-01-25 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water resources are essential for satisfying human needs, protecting health, and ensuring food production, energy and the restoration of ecosystems, as well as for social and economic development and for sustainable development. Water pumping has a long history; so many methods have been developed to pump water with a minimum of effort. These have been utilized a variety of power sources, namely human energy, animal power, hydro power, wind, solar and fossil fuels for small generators. Renewable energy is energy that is replenished by natural processes at a rate comparable or faster than its rate of consumption by humans. The energy contained in sunlight, called solar energy, can be converted into electricity as well. This energy is converted into electricity directly using devices based on Semiconductor materials, we call it photovoltaic (PV).A benefit of using solar energy to water pump systems is that increased water requirements for human consumptions, livestock and irrigation tend to coincide with the seasonal increase of incoming solar energy. The volume of water pumped by a solar-powered system in a given interval depends on the total amount of solar energy available in that time period. Specifically, the flow rate of the water pumped is determined by both the intensity of the solar energy available and the size of the PV array used to convert that solar energy into electricity. The solar pump can be pump directly into the system operation during daytime, or pump water to a storage tank or reservoir (which is part of the solar pumping solution) so that water is also available on cloudy days and at night. Since it will be with interactive to the grid, in case of water out during night and cloudy days due to high consumptions of water, the system may continue to operate and stored water to storage tank for the availability of water.When properly designed, these PV systems can also result in significant long-term cost savings and a smaller environmental footprint compared to conventional power systems.
