Praise for this book

"...[helps readers] envision a different future and consider new opportunities through technological interventions for creating an inclusive and more resilient energy system." -Jyoti Verma, ONGC Energy Centre

"...offers valuable discussion of resources, storage, distribution, and the grid system, beginning with a chronology of the energy industry, emphasizing that no single power distribution system can serve all demands at all locations. This book offers a valuable text on hybrid energy systems useful for upper-level academic courses that will also be welcomed by researchers and practitioners in industry who are focused on introducing hybrid energy into existing systems...Highly recommended." --J. Tavakoli, emeritus, Lafayette College, CHOICE, April 2022
