Book Description

This book provides the reader with the latest information on the new technology involved in on-site power generation. As deregulation of utilities expands and the cost of bringing power to the buying public increases, this new technology is often seen as the solution to many problems. This book includes chapters on:

· history of microturbines
· technical orientation
· emissions
· comparisons of technologies
· applications
· successes and failures
· international progress
· future of the microturbine

Incorporating both an overview and a detailed investigation into user applications, this comprehensive book also includes an exploration of how microturbines are changing the face of the electric power industry, and a study of the varying benefits and opportunities to be had.
