Power Generation Technologies for Low-Temperature and Distributed Heat 1st Edition

Power Generation Technologies for Low-Temperature and Distributed Heat, 1st Edition by Christos Markides and Kai Wang is an authoritative guide for engineers, researchers, and energy planners seeking practical solutions for the global shift toward decentralized, low-temperature energy systems.

Discover cutting-edge technologies—organic Rankine cycles, heat pumps, micro-CHP, waste-heat recovery, geothermal and solar thermal integration—explained with clarity and technical rigor. The authors blend theory with real-world performance analysis, helping you evaluate system efficiency, economic viability, and lifecycle impacts across urban district heating networks, industrial clusters, and rural microgrids.

This book’s clear structure translates complex thermodynamics and system modelling into actionable insights. You’ll find comparative assessments, sizing strategies, and design considerations that make it easier to choose the right technology for specific geographic contexts—from European district heating schemes to industrial sites in North America and Asia. Emphasis on modular, scalable solutions makes the content especially relevant for local authorities, policy makers, consultants, and sustainability-focused businesses.

Packed with practical examples and decision-support frameworks, the book empowers readers to reduce emissions, improve energy resilience, and unlock value from low-grade thermal sources. Whether you’re retrofitting existing infrastructure or planning new distributed generation projects, the guidance here reduces technical uncertainty and accelerates deployment.

Ready to transform low-temperature heat into reliable power? Add this essential resource by Christos Markides and Kai Wang to your professional library to stay ahead in the rapidly evolving world of distributed energy systems.
