Project Development in the Solar Industry
Solar energy offers many positive attributes for the world; however a major hindrance to its widespread implementation is the understanding required to develop projects to completion. This book written by practicing international experts in the solar energy field, enables readers to understand solar project development and the primary stumbling blocks in the process.  It also contains a an overview of all solar energy technologies, project financing, legal considerations, insurance & risk management, the technical development activities required, and an overview to software & mapping tools commonly used in the industry. The book will not only serve as a guide to energy developers but it will also assist policy makers, engineers, and students of solar energy in understanding the process involved to turn the energy of the sun into electricity and the reasons for supporting solar. Further, the tools and methods described therein are a sound foundation not just to solar but all renewable energy technologies.  It is A Handbook for Global Renewable Energy Development.
