OverviewThis book offers a plausible way to escape the fatal straitjacket of accelerating climate change, by making our own homes into sources of emission-free energy, so that we are not passively involved in making the problem worse. It is by no means the only work on this theme, but it stands out because it envisages a world where this is a norm.

Table of ContentsReviewsThis book offers a plausible way to escape the fatal straitjacket of accelerating climate change, by making our own homes into sources of emission-free energy, so that we are not passively involved in making the problem worse. It is by no means the only work on this theme, which is rapidly emerging as a social concern, but it stands out because it envisages a world where this is a norm, and where the ordinary house, and larger installations, produce baseload electricity from renewable energy sources. Professor Peter Wadhams, ScD, Professor of Ocean Physics, University of Cambridge This book is for those who are concerned, interested and involved with renewable energy and its future. This is a mustard publication. It covers a broad spectrum of renewables, information and developments. It is a must read.
