This book explores the future of energy technologies with emphasis on alternative, non-conventional technologies, their potential impacts, and the technical, economic, and policy issues that affect their successful integration into global energy markets. It considers energy management and technology development by exploring data from energy technology "roadmaps." International in scope, it examines both the technical and non-technical aspects of emerging technologies and presents detailed technology assessments for specific alternative energy resources. It includes an overview of the problems associated with conventional energy and an insightful discussion of technology implementation issues.
