Low Carbon Transitions for Developing Countries (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This is the first book focusing on low carbon energy transitions for rapidly developing countries such as China and India, assessing the opportunities and barriers for transitions to renewable and low carbon energy as climate change mitigation options. It discusses the characteristics of energy systems in developing countries and how they are likely to change in the future due to increased economic growth and industrialisation. It also analyses the role that energy modelling can play for assessing low carbon energy transitions for developing countries.
