This approach permits different levels of access for an emerging broad audience of scientists, engineers, architects, planners and economists. This is a new solar text for the new generation of green job designers and developers. It’s highlighted with vignettes that break down solar conversion into useful stories and provides common points of reference, as well as techniques, for effective estimation of evolving technologies.
Jeffrey R. S. Brownson, Associate Professor of Energy & Mineral Engineering and Materials Science & Engineering; Solar Option Lead: iMPS Renewable Energy & Sustainability Systems, The Pennsylvania State University Professor Gretchen Macht has a background in human factors and ergonomics with respect to sustainability. She leads the Sustainable Innovative Solutions (SIS) Laboratory at the University of Rhode Island where they focus on the applying human factors and optimization techniques to the systems level of sustainability at the University of Rhode Island.
