Renewable Energy Technology Evolution Rationales. Internal working draft

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:10109674

This report was developed by a team of national laboratory researchers, contractors and Department of Energy (DOE) technology program staff over the period March through October 1990 as part of the National Energy Strategy process. The purpose of the report was to provide consistent, explanatory and in-depth documentation of how renewable technologies can be expected to evolve over time. An early draft of the document was printed by the Solar Energy Research Institute in late August 1990, under the title Renewable Energy Technology Evolution Rationales. The contents were reviewed and revised and the Internal Working Draft -- October 5, 1990 (with the same title) was released by the Office of Conservation and Renewable Energy in early October 1990. The topics presented are: Biomass Electric Technology, Geothermal Technology, Hydropower Technology, Photovoltaic Technology, Solar Thermal Technology, Wind Technology, Ethanol Technology, Methanol Technology, and Solar Buildings Technologies.
