The book focuses on those renewable sources that show the most promise for initial commercial deployment within 10 years and will lead to a substantial impact on the U.S. energy system. A quantitative characterization of technologies, this book lays out expectations of costs, performance, and impacts, as well as barriers and research and development needs. In addition to a principal focus on renewable energy technologies for power generation, the book addresses the challenges of incorporating such technologies into the power grid, as well as potential improvements in the national electricity grid that could enable better and more extensive utilization of wind, solar-thermal, solar photovoltaics, and other renewable technologies."--Publisher's description. 0aRenewable energy sourceszUnited States.91945512 aNational Academy of Sciences (U.S.)2 aNational Academy of Engineering.91945522 aNational Academies Press (U.S.)9187834  a = C.1 SDU  cGBE2lcc  c104369d104369  00102lcc406TJ08079 U6 N385  02010708CGB9277499aSDUbSDUcGEN3d2025-08-01e2l0oTJ807.9.U6 N385 2010p1000364918r2025-08-01 00:00:00tC.1w2025-08-01yGBE
