The second edition of the book proceeds to cover power plants that rely on renewable energy sources, such as geothermal, solar, wind, ocean, and tide and wave energy. It terminates with the presentation of various energy storage systems, most of which are still under development and environmental aspects of electric power generation, both fossil and nuclear. All power production plants, invariably, pollute the atmosphere, and the resulting imbalance on ecology has a bad effect.||About the Author||Harish C.
