Harnessing energy flows: technologies for renewable power production

• In this chapter, the technologies for renewable power production of today andin the near future will be described and explained. Renewable power productionis electric power production without using a fuel that will end some day in thefuture. In this chapter, as in this book, power production based on renewable fuels(biomass) is excluded1.Some of the technologies such as wind or solar has reached industry massproduction in recent years, hydro power has been in operation more than 100years and others like wave or ocean current power have still some development todo before robust power production units are available.
