Book Reviews of Developing Wind Power Projects: Theory and Practice

Book Review: Gide for practical work in wind project development
Summary: 5 Stars

Very useful book. Not only for students at different levels, but also for the engineers working in wind project development. This book is recommended also for persons living in countries with non developed wind power to get the information how to support the idea on wind power introduction.
Comparative analysis of the measures that act as a driving force or a barrier for wind power development is of practical importance. The discussion on the environment impact of wind power projects is detailed as well the spatial planning recommendation.

Summary of Developing Wind Power Projects: Theory and Practice

Wind power is developing rapidly, in terms of both the number of new installations and in interest from stakeholders including policy-makers, NGOs, research scientists, industry and the general public. Unlike the majority of other texts on wind power, which are written primarily for engineers or policy analysts, this book specifically targets those interested in, or planning to develop, wind power projects. Having outlined wind power basics and explained the underlying resource and technology, the author explores the interactions between wind power and society, and the main aspects of project development, including siting, economics and legislation. This book will be an essential reference for professionals developing new sites, government officials and consultants reviewing related applications, and both specialists and non-specialists studying wind power project development.
