Green Energy and Technology

Mantilla, Angeles; Sandoval-Pineda, Juan Manuel

This book offers a comprehensive exploration of emerging and improved clean energy technologies, presenting both current alternatives for sustainable power generation and innovative proposals to enhance their efficiency and impact. It examines microgrid topologies for distributed energy systems, new geothermal opportunities in Mexico, and multiple solar‑based approaches ranging from thermal energy and advanced concentrator designs to next‑generation materials for sunlight‑assisted processes such as low‑temperature photovoltaics, photocatalytic CO₂ reduction, and hydrogen production. The text also addresses electrolysis‑supported hydrogen use in combustion applications, advances in photovoltaic systems—including laser‑scribed thin‑film modules for agricultural settings—and the development of improved semiconductor materials. Finally, it analyzes biofuel production from biomass through diverse technological routes, evaluating their performance, economic feasibility, and potential contributions to the global energy transition.
