Overview

Energy production involves generating electricity or other forms of energy from various sources such as fossil fuels, renewables like solar and wind, nuclear power, etc. Conversion refers to transforming one form of energy into another, like converting mechanical energy from wind turbines into electrical energy. It also includes processes like refining crude oil into gasoline or converting sunlight into electricity via photovoltaic cells. Storage of energy is essential for balancing supply and demand over time. Batteries, pumped hydro, and compressed air storage are examples of technologies used to store electricity. Hydrogen and thermal energy storage are also being explored for their potential in storing energy from renewable sources. Together, these processes play a vital role in ensuring a reliable and sustainable energy supply for society while addressing environmental concerns and promoting energy efficiency. This book unravels the recent studies in the field of energy production, conversion and storage. Different approaches, evaluations, methodologies and advanced studies on energy systems have been included in this book. Students, researchers, experts and all associated with the field will benefit alike from this book.
