This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 647 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renewable Energy is the fastest growing and Sustainable source in Power Generation sector now to fulfil the promise of a clean energy future. Large capacity addition in Solar Power and Wind Power is taking place with the objective of achieving decarbonisation. Hydropower plants are also playing major role in power generation sector. Exploration for Tidal and Geothermal power plants is in pre-commercial development stages. Considering the importance of Renewable Energy in power generation mix, a new chapter on Renewable Power Plant is added in this edition to address the long pending demand of readers to add topics on Power Generation from Renewable Sources. So far, the book dealt with power generation from Thermal Power Plants only using fossil fuel. The new chapter covering power generation methods from Renewable sources will further widen scope of the book. The book is updated with various methods of power generation by Conventional and Renewable Sources and covers the practical aspects of the topics in easy language. NEW TO THE FIFTH EDITION • A new chapter on Renewable Power Plant. • More demanding topics on Solar power plant and Wind power plant to provide information about practical approach of these plants. • Hydro electric power plant is added to help the reader to understand Functioning of Older and New Hydro Electric Plants. • Topics on Tidal power and Geothermal power, which are Emerging Technology of Renewable Energy, are added.
