Product Description
Nanotechnology is in danger of being overlooked as a reliable energy resource due to the lack of knowledge and confusion surrounding nanotechnology and its uses. This text considers the possibility that nanotechnology could change the global energy landscape indefinitely and discusses its potential for facing down the dual threats (climate change and supply shortfall) of fossil fuels. * Considers the future impact of nanotechnology on energy supply, use, and distribution. * Presents models that allow comparative assessment of energy solutions in different environments. * Looks into the importance of nanotechnology as a cheap and effective resource of energy. * Considers global trends in energy and the expected boom in energy demand. * Compares fossil fuels with non-fossil sources and the advantages and disadvantages of both.
