The need for a revolution in the industry becomes further apparent given that 'decarbonization' means an increasing electrification of other sectors of the economy?in particular, through a switch from gasoline to electric vehicles. Of the options for producing electric power without significant greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energy is most attractive to policymakers, as it promises increased national self-reliance on energy supplies and the creation of new in 606 $aElectric power production 606 $aElectric power production$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aElectric power production$xEconomic aspects 606 $aRenewable energy sources 615 0$aElectric power production. 615 0$aElectric power production$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aElectric power production$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aRenewable energy sources. 676 $a333.793/2 701 $aMoselle$b Boaz$01550658 701 $aPadilla$b Jorge$f1983-$0732578 701 $aSchmalensee$b Richard$0121363 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910785244803321 996 $aHarnessing renewable energy in electric power systems$93809612 997 $aUNINA
