SECTION V Applications of Methods: Examples and Illustrations. Chapter 16. Selection of Power Generation Alternatives. Chapter 17. Sensitivity and Monte Carlo Analyses. Appendix 1. Terminology, Acronyms, Abbreviation and Units. Appendix 2. Project: Cost Benefit Analysis of Residential Photovoltaic Solar Panels. Appendix 3. Project: Fault Tree and Reliability Analyses. Appendix 4. Project: Decision-Making and Analytical Hierarchical Process. Appendix 5. Project: Analysis of an Energy Problem.
This is a comprehensive book on how to make complex decisions on energy systems problems involving different technologies, environmental effects, costs, benefits, risks, and safety issues. Using Industrial and Systems Engineering techniques for decision-making in Energy Systems, the book provides the background knowledge and methods to incorporate multiple criteria involved in solving energy system problems. It offers methods, examples, and case studies illustrating applications. Decision-Making in Energy Systems discusses subjective as well as objective methods, approaches, and techniques taken from the systems and industrial engineering domain and puts them to use in solving energy systems problems. It uses an integrated approach by including effects of all technical, economic, environmental, and safety considerations as well as costs and risks. The book is specially designed for practicing engineers from industrial/systems engineering who work in energy systems engineering industries. Aimed at graduate students, researchers, and managers involved in various energy generating, distributing, and consuming companies, the book helps the reader to understand, evaluate, and decide on solutions to their energy-related problems.
