Reviews for Wind Energy Pocket Reference

'Renewable energy professionals, students and wind energy entrepreneurs amongst others will find a host of answers in this useful book- a practical assimilation of data, fundamentals and guidelines for applications, including sensible check lists for what to take on wind resource mapping field trips.' Renew 'This quaint booklet would be of value to anyone after a high level understanding of wind energy, but with enough technical content for students of wind, renewable energy enthusiasts, or those in the Windustry taking on board a little more technical acumen. Just like a backpacker needs to pull out a phrasebook, you might carry this in your Hard Yakka or pressed business shirt for those vital moments... or just read it cover to cover and impress friends with your knowledge on one of the world s fastest growing energy sources.'
