Energy Prosumers is a practical guide to understanding the rise of decentralized energy systems and their role in addressing climate change, energy security, and the transition to renewable energy. As the world shifts from centralized fossil fuel power to distributed, clean energy solutions, this book explains how prosumers-those who both produce and consume energy-are reshaping sustainable energy systems.
- Understand how decentralized energy systems support climate change mitigation and enhance energy resilience
- Explore the role of renewable energy technologies like solar and wind in enabling energy prosumers
- Learn how energy storage improves energy security and supports net zero emissions goals
- Gain insight into smart grid systems and how they optimize electricity use and distribution
- See how energy communities promote local energy independence and equitable access to clean energy
- Familiarize yourself with policy frameworks and market mechanisms that support prosumer participation
- Understand the economic benefits of energy prosumers for reducing energy costs and fostering innovation
- Discover how digital tools like blockchain enable peer-to-peer energy trading in decentralized systems
This book is essential for anyone interested in renewable energy, climate change, and decentralized energy systems. It offers clear insights into how energy prosumers contribute to sustainable energy transitions, support energy security, and advance net zero targets.
