And yet, this topic is rarely discussed! This is unfortunate given that understanding these differences is \u003cb\u003eessential for the efficient use of our limited resources\u003c\/b\u003e. This book provides an \u003cb\u003eevergreen approach\u003c\/b\u003e to distinguish between effective and less effective technologies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMost local\/national governments around the globe are pushing for the increased implementation of technologies such as solar, wind, battery storage, biofuels, hydropower, electric cars, etc. A large amount of \u003cb\u003elocalized information\u003c\/b\u003e about the technologies is available in prior books. However, a holistic comparison of these technologies in terms of their practical effectiveness for climate change mitigation is missing. In absence of such a comparison, it is impossible to get a big picture understanding of renewable energy technologies and their wide-scale implementation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDr. Tushar Choudhary, a highly awarded technology specialist with twenty-five years of energy R\u0026amp;D experience, has addressed the above important gap by providing a systematic analysis on the following topics: \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCritical challenges associated with the targeted CO2 emission reduction \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparison of the technologies in terms of their abilities to address the critical challenges \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrioritization of the technologies based on this comparison \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eOne additional highlight of this book is that it compares \u003cb\u003efossil fuel and low-carbon technologies across the power and transportation sectors\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeing aware of the significant data ambiguity in this field, Choudhary has specifically relied on data from the \u003cb\u003emost credible sources available\u003c\/b\u003e for developing the analysis presented in this book.
