Description
Energy Sources gives a full-spectrum overview of fuel and renewable energy resources from the perspective of environmental mitigation and human health. It spans fossil fuels — oil, natural gas, and coal — and their carbon and health impact, through to renewable sources like wind, solar, geothermal, and hydropower, closing with the policy frameworks shaping the transition between them.
Key Features
- Provides an overview of cleaner and greener energy sources based on both fuel and renewable energy
- Discusses environmental impact — carbon generation — and human health aspects across the energy mix
- Outlines policies set by different world organizations and the future trajectory of fuel energy
Coverage
Fossil fuel origin, development, and industrialization (oil, gas, coal) · Carbon capture, utilization, and storage · The role of fossil fuels in a sustainable energy system · Renewable energy classification and development · Solar and wind energy systems, applications, and future potential · IoT-based hybrid renewable energy systems · AI techniques in wind energy prediction · Policy pathways from fossil fuel to solar-driven sustainability.

Why buy this book?
Energy portfolios rarely sit neatly on one side of the fossil-renewable line, and neither does the policy conversation around them. This book gives energy analysts, environmental teams, and policymakers a single reference spanning both — carbon and health impact on the fossil side, deployment and AI-driven forecasting on the renewable side — useful for strategic planning, environmental risk assessment, and tracking where global energy policy is heading next.
