Energizing our Future
surveys and analyzes in considerable depth the present and future economic
and technical viability of
- oil
- natural gas
- coal
- synthetic fuel
- nuclear
- hydrogen
- solar
- biomass
- wind
- and less well-known potential energy
sources in the context of real-world production, distribution, and
environmental constraints.
For example, the authors carefully and
factually debunk the myth, perpetuated by Lovins, Rifkin and others, that we
are "running out of oil."
Griffin Burgh, ALA, LEED, is a practicing
architect with a long background in solar architecture and sustainable
design.
His interest in alternate energy has included
the design of a low-speed electric car and a current consulting project on
the Fisher Coachworks Advanced Technology Hybrid Bus.
Griffin is also an adjunct research fellow at
the University of Michigan Chemical Engineering Department, working with
novel titanium dioxide nanomaterials that have applications in energy
storage and solar energy.
