Sinopsis

Climate change, renewable energy and low carbon transitionáare arguably the most debated topics of the twenty-first century.áClimate and Energy Decodedáprovides a rare, unbiased overview of these critical topics. The book also methodically debunks the related myths.áThe daily glut of biased information is leading to ill-informed discussions. In this book, Dr. Tushar Choudhary, a highly awarded industry expert, focuses on both science and practical matters for his clarifying analysis. Such an analysis, which uses the most reliable data available, is essential for informed debates on energy policies.This concise book addresses all crucial aspects about climate and energy. Climate discussions include the history of climate change, the science behind climate change and myths about climate change. Energy discussions include the history of energy, technology basics, advantages & challenges of the different low carbon technologies, and myths about fossil fuels, renewable energy and energy transition. The final big picture discussion provides a framework for efficiently addressing climate change.Someáexamplesáof the type of questions that the book addresses are:áClimate change:áShould we ignore the climate warnings because of the past exaggerationsáby media and certain scientists? Can we ignore climate impacts since death rates from climate disasters have decreased drastically?áIs climate mitigation the most important issue forááhumans currently? What is the estimated long-term economic impact of climate change?áRenewable energy & electrification:áIs electricity from solar and wind cheaper than that from fossil fuels?áCan energy costs of renewables become cheaper than fossil fuels? Why are most countries lagging when some countries already generate most of their electricity from renewable sources?áWhy is there so much controversy about green hydrogen?áAre battery electric vehicles a very effective solution? What are the key challenges related to electrification?Fossil fuels:áDo fugitive emissions negate the advantage of natural gas over coal power?áDo fossil fuels receive several trillion dollars in subsidies each year?áWhat is the impact of fossil fuels on air pollution?Energy transition:áWhat are the key learnings from the previous energy transitions?áHow much will the low-carbon energy transition cost?áWhat are the key challenges for the low-carbon energy transition? Why is there so much unrealistic optimism about the energy transition? Is there consensus amongst energy experts about the path forward?
