Описание:
"Low-carbon Energy Security from a European Perspective" draws on the European Commission s funded project MILESECURE-2050 project. It considers low-carbon energy security and energy geopolitics in Europe, with a focus on four thematic clusters:
Challenging the energy security paradigm Climate change and energy security objectives (the components of a secure and low-carbon energy system) Energy security in a geopolitical perspective, as it relates to economics, resource competition, and availability The influence of large scale renewable energy projects on energy security and shift geopolitical alliances
An overarching narrative is that optimizing the energy system simultaneously across different objectives may be impossible (i.e., lowest cost, least environmental impact, minimal downtime, regional supply).
This book explores these charged topics through insights from a series of novel, new energy project case studies demonstrates the need for difficult political conversations, within Europe and beyond, by posing fundamental, yet new questions about the energy security paradigm. Offers a unique perspective on low-carbon energy security by considering the assumptions behind current energy security needs Suggests the benefit of envisioning energy security through out-of-the-box scenario development in respect to the energy system. Includes energy in an International Scenario with case studies from Africa, Russia, Ukraine, Morroco, China, Souith America and Europe."

Описание: Nuclear Energy is one of the most popular texts ever published on basic nuclear physics, systems, and applications of nuclear energy. This newest edition continues the tradition of offering a holistic treatment of everything the undergraduate engineering student needs to know in a clear and accessible way. The book presents a comprehensive overview of radioactivity, radiation protection, nuclear reactors, waste disposal, and nuclear medicine. . The seventh edition is restructured into three parts: Basic Concepts, Nuclear Power (including new chapters on nuclear power plants and introduction to reactor theory), and Radiation and Its Uses. Part Two in particular has been updated with current developments, including a new section on Reactor Safety and Security (with a discussion of the Fukushima Diiachi accident); updated information on naval and space propulsion; and revised and updated information on radioactive waste storage, transportation, and disposal. Part Three features new content on biological effects of radiation, radiation standards, and radiation detection.

Описание: The United Kingdom is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by at least eighty per cent by 2050, a target that will only be achieved by transforming the way that energy is supplied and used. At the same time there are anxieties about the security of energy provision in terms of European dependency on natural gas and the reliability of electricity supply. This book explores in detail those factors which could help or hinder the attainment of the UK's climate change targets, and how these factors interact with the parallel objective of maintaining a robust and secure energy system. The book is the result of a major national energy research effort by the UK Energy Research Centre, which includes some of the UK's leading energy experts. The results and recommendations are essential reading for policymakers, professionals, researchers, and anyone concerned with achieving large-scale reductions in carbon emissions, both from the UK and internationally. Energy 2050 begins by exploring the evolution of the UK energy system over recent decades: the trends, technologies and environmental impacts related to energy use, and the structures and institutions of governance that have influenced this evolution. It then moves on to changes in energy policy to emphasise decarbonization and resilience, and introduce the approach to scenarios and modelling used in the rest of the book. Later chapters explore different aspects of the uncertainties that may enable or constrain the creation of a low-carbon, resilient UK energy system, related to accelerated technology development, the creation of an infrastructure to support de-centralized energy and microgeneration, to lifestyle and behaviour change, and to public attitudes to wider environmental impacts associated with energy system change.

Описание:
This book investigates the role of gas networks in future low-carbon energy systems, and discusses various decarbonisation pathways, providing insights for gas network operators, developers, and policy makers. As more countries around the world move towards low-carbon energy systems and increase their exploitation of renewable energy sources, the use of natural gas and the associated infrastructure is expected to undergo a substantial transformation. As such there is a great uncertainty regarding the future role of gas networks and how they will be operated in coming years.
The topics addressed include:
Fundamentals of gas network operation
The impact of variable renewable electricity generation on the operation and expansion of gas networks
The impact of decarbonising heat supplies on gas networks
Opportunities and challenges of utilising gas networks to transport alternative low-carbon gases such as bio-methane and hydrogen
