This Bundle includes the following reports:
-Global Wind Power Market Potential
-Solar Photovoltaic Market Potential
-Biomass to Biofuels Market Potential 2008
Global Wind Power Market Potential
Wind is simple air in motion. It is caused by the uneven heating of the earth’s surface by the sun. Since the earth’s surface is made of very different types of land and water, it absorbs the sun’s heat at different rates. Today, wind energy is mainly used to generate electricity. Wind energy is also world's fastest growing energy source and is a clean and renewable source that has been in use for centuries in Europe and more recently in the United States and other nations. Wind turbines, both large and small, produce electricity for utilities and homeowners and remote villages.
Solar Photovoltaic Market Potential 2008
The industrial revolution spurred tremendous advances in science and technology that had the effect of exacerbating the world’s energy dependence. Over the past five decades, as the demand for energy has escalated and the consumption of fossil fuels has accelerated, people have sought renewable sources as an alternative way to meet growing energy requirements.
Biomass to Biofuels Market Potential 2008
As the world scrambles to meet its increasing energy demands the search for renewable energy sources is more and more desperate.
Our cars, trucks, planes, trains and economy will screech to a HALT without a sufficient supply of transportation fuels. And it will only get worse. Energy experts predict a 25% increase in U.S. petroleum consumption and a 35% increase in worldwide petroleum demand by 2025.
