Wind energy in Germany. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, June 2009, Pages: 88
Too often we hear about tornados, typhoons, or El
Niño in newscasts. Scientists say they are connected
to global warming, which is partly caused – or catalyzed
– by humans. Even though the 2004 movie ‘The day
after tomorrow’ is a fiction (at least at the
moment), global warming can cause unforeseeable – and
definitely undesirable – impacts.
To protect our environment and be able to fulfill the
world’s electricity requirements we need to find
alternative energy sources of which wind energy is of
increasing importance around the world.
After an introduction to wind energy technology, this
book examines the world #1 wind energy country:
Germany - the history, locations, governmental
support towards wind energy. A section is dedicated
to the European Union's renewable energy policy and
to the issues related to wind turbines.
