Produktbeschreibung

Investments in Sustainable Energy Technologies face strong competition in providing power in the world and particularly in developing countries where electricity prices are relatively low. Various energy options may be provided to meet the growing Ghanaian population and industry. This book looks at the viability of these Technologies and how investments have been encouraged and discuss the choice of discount rate and how it affects resource depletion. A further consideration is given to the energy sector in Ghana and the functions of the institutions involved in policymaking and implementation. The trend of electricity production, usage and projections into the future are also discussed. The energy market, electricity pricing structure and sustainable energy resources and their investment potential in the country are explored. This book is a very good resource for governments, utility companies and renewable energy investors interested in developing countries. It is also a good academic resource for Higher National Diploma (HND), Bachelor of Technology (BTech) and Bachelor of Science (BSc) students of renewable energy systems engineering.
