23 June 2015, IIASA, A new resource for clean energy systems: IIASA researchers have contributed to a major new reference work on renewable energy, climate mitigation methods, and sustainable energy. The world’s energy supply is a complex system, linked to climate change, the environment, and poverty. TheHandbook of Clean Energy Systems, a new six-volume reference work, provides a comprehensive view of current research on clean energy, ranging from technology for different types of renewable energy to questions of energy storage, and long term sustainability. IIASA researchers from the Ecosystems Services and Management (ESM) and Energy programs contributed to five chapters in the work, which was published last week. It complements the IIASA-coordinated Global Energy Assessment (2012), which explored energy system transformations for achieving goals on climate change, energy access, and energy security.
