Review Earthscan Publications Ltd.  / Renewable Electricity and the Grid: The Challenge Of Variability Creator: Godfrey Boyle
Publication date: 2007-10

Review Renewable Electricity and the Grid: The Challenge Of Variability / Earthscan Publications Ltd.:

The energy available from wind, waves, tides and the sun varies in ways which may not match variations in energy demand. Assimilating these fluctuations will affect the output of other forms of generation and the operation and economics of electricity networks and markets. Are these problems significant, or can these new sources be integrated into the grid system without the need for extensive backup or energy storage capacity?This book examines the significance of the issue of variability of renewable electricity supplies and presents technical and operational solutions to the problem of reconciling the differing patterns of supply and demand. The contributors, leading experts in the field, explain and quantify the impacts of variability in renewable energy, and in doing so, dispel many of the myths and misunderstandings surrounding the topic.

Review Integrated Electricity Resource Planning (NATO Science Series E: Applied Sciences, Volume 261) / Kluwer Academic:

The book provides an updated coverage of key topics involved in integrated resource planning (IRP), also called least-cost planning. IRP in comparison with conventional power can provide the same energy services at a lower societal cost and with reduced environmental impacts. The history and basics of IRP is presented. The link between IRP and the environment is characterized in terms of impacts and cost-effectiveness. The book also features detailed chapters on IRP modelling, energy-efficient technologies, and international experience, including Eastern Europe and developing countries. The book is intended for researchers, specialists and electric utility staff involved in energy planning, electricity conservation, demand-side management and environmental planning.

Review Nuclear Power Cl / Temple University Press:

We often think of 'progress' and 'economic growth' as natural developments that benefit all members of society. "Nuclear Power and Social Power" challenges this view and instead suggests that specific definitions of progress and economic growth can be molded by powerful individuals, organizations, and classes. These definitions, and their manifestation in social policy, often serve narrow parochial interests rather than the common good. Such inequities of social power, hiding behind the semantic facade of 'progress' and 'economic growth,' threaten the existence of democratic communities and societies. In "Nuclear Power and Social Power", Rick Eckstein helps us understand this perspective of social power by examining the civilian nuclear power industry in the United States. More specifically, he compares the Shoreham reactor in New York and the Seabrook reactor in New Hampshire, which faced similar financial and public oppositions yet met very different fates. The $5. 5 billion Shoreham plant was the first completed and licensed reactor in the United States never to operate commercially. Seabrook, costing about the same, managed to open even though its primary owner went bankrupt. Despite the differences, the cast of winners and losers was very much the same. [+]
In both cases, banks and other powerful corporations won while regular folks and small businesses lost amid a barrage of egalitarian discourse about progress and growth. Rick Eckstein is Assistant Professor of Sociology at Villanova University.
