Answering Your Call is aimed at people who know they are on the planet for a reason and want more than encouragement-they want to get precise about it.0Conduct of lifeVocationConduct of life.Vocation.170/.44Schuster John P1856655MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910974076003321Answering your call4456287UNINA05376oam 2200673I 450 991096873710332120251116204823.01-134-27673-71-315-07444-31-134-27666-410.4324/9781315074443 (CKB)2550000001263076(EBL)1666852(SSID)ssj0001182553(PQKBManifestationID)12404310(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001182553(PQKBWorkID)11174992(PQKB)10635473(MiAaPQ)EBC1666852(OCoLC)897455390(EXLCZ)99255000000126307620180706e20132003 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrEnergy from the desert feasibility of very large scale photovoltaic power generation (VLS-PV) systems /editor, Kosuke Kurokawa1st ed.Oxon [England] :Earthscan,2013.1 online resource (773 p.)First published in 2003 by James & James.1-902916-41-7 1-306-58184-2 Includes bibliographical references.Cover; Half Title; Title Page; Copyright Page; Table of Contents; Foreword; Preface; Task VIII Participants; List of Contributors; Acknowledgements; Comprehensive Summary; Objective; Background and concept of VLS-PV; VLS-PV case studies; Scenario studies; Understandings; Recommendations; Executive Summary; A.

This Energy from the Desert volume examines and evaluates the potential of very large scale photovoltaic power generation (VLS-PV) systems. Following from the success of the first book on the subject, the authors present practical case studies of both virtual and real projects based on selected regions (including the Mediterranean, the Middle East, the Gobi Desert and Western Australia) and theirPhotovoltaic power generationPhotovoltaic power systemsDesert resources developmentFeasibility studiesPhotovoltaic power generation.Photovoltaic power systems.Desert resources development.Feasibility studies.621.31/244Kurokawa Kōsuke1864789MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910968737103321Energy from the desert4471725UNINA
