Conventional Energy in North America: Current and Future Sources for Electricity Generation provides in-depth information on the current state of conventional energy sources used for electricity generation in the United States and Canada. As energy is a major force of civilization, determining, to a high degree, the level of economic and social development, this book provides relevant information and a deep analysis regarding the main problems associated with the use of fossil fuels for the generation of electricity in both countries. Finally, the book offers guidance for countries seeking to expand their use of conventional energy sources for electricity generation.

Users in government, energy experts, economists, politicians, academics, scientific institutions and universities, international organizations and the private and public power industry will find this book to be a great reference on what type of conventional energy sources should be used for electricity generation with the aim of reducing the emission of CO2 and other contaminated gases to the atmosphere.

Jorge Morales has served as an invited professor of mathematics at the University of Havana and the Diplomatic Academy of Cuba. He has also served as a diplomat, working at the Atomic Energy Commission of Cuba within the Executive Committee of the Council of Ministers. Mr. Morales has also held several positions with the International Atomic Energy Agency, including Counsellor and Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Cuba, Deputy Head of the Cuban delegation to the IAEA General Conference, Deputy Governor to the IAEA Board of Governors, Chairman of the G-77 for the IAEA, Representative of IAEA member states in the Committee on staff issues, and Chairman of the working group on nuclear matters of the Movement of Non-aligned Countries in the IAEA. As a professional working for the IAEA, Mr. Morales worked to give advice to countries on the introduction or expansion of nuclear energy for electricity generation. In order to make recommendations, he studied both the conventional and non-convention energy sources available in the country. He is the author of 11 books, including books on conventional energy sources in Latin America and Europe. He has also written 16 book chapters and more than 70 scientific articles.
