EBOOK - ENERGY Renewable Energy and the Environment (Bikash Pandey & Ajoy Karki)



EBOOK - Năng lượng tái tạo và môi trường (Bikash Pandey & Ajoy Karki) - 438 Trang.

Hydropower generates over 1000 GW globally, producing more than 4000 TWh each year, around
16.5% of the world’s total electricity. This makes it by far the largest source of renewable electricity when the world is racing against time to combat climate change by greening its energy supply.
Although water wheels were utilized by humans as a source of energy since antiquity, industrialscale hydropower required the development of modern turbines starting in the first half of the nineteenth century, building on fundamentals of hydraulic machines spelled out by the great mathematician, Euler, half a century earlier.

Hydroelectricity saw a period of rapid growth starting late in the nineteenth century with the discovery and proliferation of alternating current, progress in manufacturing and metallurgy, and breakthroughs in civil engineering, which enabled the construction of large dams. By 1940, over 1500 dams supplied 40% of the electricity in the United States. Construction of new hydroelectric projects slowed in the 1960s when concerns began to grow about the social and environmental challenges associated with large dams.

Hydropower generates over 1000 GW globally, producing more than 4000 TWh each year, around
16.5% of the world’s total electricity. This makes it by far the largest source of renewable electricity when the world is racing against time to combat climate change by greening its energy supply.
Although water wheels were utilized by humans as a source of energy since antiquity, industrialscale hydropower required the development of modern turbines starting in the first half of the nineteenth century, building on fundamentals of hydraulic machines spelled out by the great mathematician, Euler, half a century earlier.

Hydroelectricity saw a period of rapid growth starting late in the nineteenth century with the discovery and proliferation of alternating current, progress in manufacturing and metallurgy, and breakthroughs in civil engineering, which enabled the construction of large dams. By 1940, over 1500 dams supplied 40% of the electricity in the United States. Construction of new hydroelectric projects slowed in the 1960s when concerns began to grow about the social and environmental challenges associated with large dams.
