Renewable energy has become the predominant tool in the climate change mitigation strategies of nearly all countries. In recent years, battery storage, fuel cells and pumped hydro have gained prominence as the technologies of choice for emissions reductions from the power generation and transportation sectors. New fuels such as hydrogen and ammonia have emerged as chemical energy storage media and mechanisms for storing and transporting hydrogen. This expanded second edition of 'Talking Renewables: A renewable energy primer for everyone' (IOP Concise Physics, 2018) provides an introduction to renewable energy and its applications to non-scientific readers who need to know more about the subject. This includes economists, financial experts, and decision-makers of all types, including the government, financial sector as well as NGOs and social workers.

Key Features:

  • Introduces renewable energy and its applications to non-scientific readers who need to know more about the subject
  • Explains the basics of the new developments in renewable energy technologies relating to climate change at an accessible and non-technical level
  • Covers global net zero strategies for climate change mitigation and shows how the strategy is related to the Paris Agreement and the ensuing energy transition
  • Includes examples, activities, case studies, questions and problems
  • The second edition is fully updated and includes five new chapters
