Yu. A. Salo. Modern energy production structure in the context of global warming // Aquatic environment: Education for sustainable development. Petrozavodsk: Karelian Research Centre of RAS, 2010. Pp. 64-71
Dynamics of the Earth's population growth, energy production, greenhouse emissions and rise in mean global surface air temperature over the industrial period are considered. The effect of man-made greenhouse gas emissions on global warming is studied. It is demonstrated that the present-day structure of energy production is not optimal either in efficiency or in its effect on global climate change. Renewable energy sources should be developed and efficiently used as the alternative. In the annex, we describe experimental application of the method for practical estimation of the solar panel coefficient of efficiency.
