WWS Solutions for Electricity Generation
Abstract
The solution to air pollution, global warming, and energy insecurity is, in theory, simple and straightforward: Electrify or provide direct heat for all energy; obtain the electricity and heat from only wind, water, and solar sources; store energy; transmit electricity over long distance; and reduce energy use. This chapter first explores the main components of a wind–water–solar system and then focuses on the WWS electricity-generating technologies that will replace traditional energy sources, thereby eliminating all global anthropogenic emissions from such energy sources.
