Publisher Synopsis
'Historically, finding sound, comprehensive information on policies supporting renewable heating and cooling has been a challenge. This book fills an important knowledge gap by clearly outlining best practices for a sector that is critical to increasing the share of renewables in the energy mix.' Kristin M. Seyboth, Senior Scientist, IPCC WG III Technical Support Unit, Germany 'Solar, biomass and geothermal resources already provide heating and cooling for single and multi-family dwellings. This book provides clear guidelines for both national and local policymakers wishing to tap the huge potential by encouraging further cost effective deployment.' Professor Ralph Sims, Massey University, New Zealand 'A wealth of information on best practices from real programs. A must read for those developing new programs to encourage the increased deployment of renewables, particularly solar thermal.' Doug McClenahan, former Chairman of the IEA's Solar Heating & Cooling Programme, Canada Read more...
