Overschakelen op duurzame energie vergt veel meer

dan windturbines en zonnepanelen bijbouwen.

Het hele energiesysteem moet op de schop. Vraag

en aanbod van duurzame energie liggen namelijk te

ver uit elkaar. In steden en industriegebieden, waar

duurzame energie het hardst nodig is, is er een groot

gebrek aan ruimte. En de woestijnen en oceanen,

met een overvloed aan zon en wind, liggen ver weg.

Dit boek laat zien hoe je deze opslag- en transportproblemen

slim kunt oplossen met waterstof en

And the deserts and oceans, where there is an abundance of sun and wind, are far away. This book shows how to solve these storage and transport problems in smart way...
