Publisher Description In many African countries, access to electricity and modern energy fuels remains a significant concern. Over 570 million people in Sub-Saharan Africa still lack electricity, and only 18% have access to modern cooking fuels. The region faces immense challenges, including massive debts, lack of maintenance, and system failures, underscoring the urgent need for investment in the energy sector's transition.Africa's overreliance on fossil fuels and the growing demand for energy, driven by economic expansion and population growth, could lead to sharp increases in greenhouse gas emissions. Meanwhile, urbanization, economic activities, and rising living standards are increasing waste production, making waste management a pressing issue. The absence of adequate waste treatment technologies, financing, and regulatory frameworks exacerbates this challenge. Biomass remains a predominant energy source in Sub-Saharan Africa, often used in its raw state, leading to health hazards from incomplete combustion. However, the continent's abundant agricultural residues and other energetic wastes offer a significant opportunity. These can be transformed into various energy carriers, helping to meet or supplement Africa's energy and fuel needs. The current situation presents a unique opportunity for Africa to shift from a fossil-based economy to a sustainable green economy. Leveraging technology, knowledge, and skills can support this rapid transition and drive economic growth.Innovations in Circular Economy and Renewable Energy highlights current advancements in waste management, biomass utilization for energy, and innovations in green hydrogen production in Africa. This book showcases predominantly African research and insights first presented at the "First International Conference on Circular Economy, Renewable Energy, and Green Hydrogen" in Kumasi, Ghana, in September 2023. Dive into this essential resource to explore transformative waste-to-energy technologies, the hybridization and flexibilization of renewable energy systems, and the path towards a sustainable future for Africa.

  1. Like new condition, safe packaging, good communication from seller. Fair price for the quality. Shipping was on time, but tracking information took over a week to receive. The book was as-described with minor cosmetic flaws (indentations in some pages, for example). I wish the listings showed the actual item being sold to you instead of just an accurate stock photo. This edition and appearance of George Orwell's 1984 here is a nice pocket-sized hardcover. I would buy from this shop again.

  2. The two new out-of-print books I ordered were exactly as described and shipped promptly. I did ask the seller's support person (an AI chatbot, I think) to be sure to package the items carefully, and "he" said that he'd make that request of the shipping department. I knew this was hooey, and as I expected, the books were shipped in nothing but a padded paper mailer, no other protection. I got lucky, no damage, but don't bother making special requests of this seller.
