Overview

There is no progress without access to energy and no energy use without supporting technology. Only one sixth of the earth's population has an easy access to sufficient energy. The rest will increase their demand for energy in the future - one of the greatest global environmental problems we face. A fair price for energy is necessary for comparing the pros and cons of energy technology application. The road to an objective analysis of an energy system is called Integrated Energy Analysis and covers a cradle-to-grave system approach. This book contains such an analysis of the electricity energy system in Shandong-Province, on of China's 32 provinces. It also presents a decision support analysis tool. It should allow decision makers in China to choose the right system of electricity supply with minimum environmental impact and/or minimum true cost. The book contains a DVD, which contains a more extensive record of the research results obtained. It also contains all the tools, which have been developed.
