Description

Strategies for an Energy Transition: Planning for a Sustainable Future guides readers through strategic planning for a sustainable energy shift. It covers optimisation of renewable energy systems, sustainable fuel production and unconventional resources, and addresses the water‑energy nexus with an integrated approach that includes technological, economic, environmental and social dimensions. With modelling and optimisation tools, the book helps academics, engineers, industry professionals and policy‑makers navigate the complexities of the energy transition.

About the Authors

The seven co‑authors are researchers and professors at the Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo, Mexico. Their expertise spans process optimisation, decision‑making in the water‑energy‑food nexus, mass and energy integration, sustainable fuels and advanced chemical engineering. Collectively, they have published hundreds of papers and supervised many postgraduate students, contributing significantly to sustainable energy research.
