The concept of sustainable development was first introduced by the Brundtland Commission almost 20 years ago and has received increased attention during the past decade. It is now an essential part of any energy activities. This is a research-based textbook which can be used by senior undergraduate students, graduate students, engineers, practitioners, scientists, researchers in the area of sustainable energy systems and aimed to address some key pillars: better efficiency, better cost effectiveness, better use of energy resources, better environment, better energy security, and better sustainable development. It also includes some cutting-edge topics, such hydrogen and fuel cells, renewable, clean combustion technologies, CO2 abatement technologies, and some potential tools (exergy, constructal theory, etc.) for design, analysis and performance improvement.

Thermodynamic fundamentals.- Introductory aspects of energy.- Energy conservation.- Fundamental concepts for sustainable process design.- Thermodynamic cycles.- Thermal and chemical devices.- Fossil fuels vs clean fuels.- Direct energy conversion.- System analysis through energy and exergy.- Renewable energy systems and applications.- Thermal energy storage systems and applications.- District energy systems.- Nuclear energy.- Hydrogen and fuel cell systems and applications.- Ammonia as a potential substance.- CO2 technologies.- Life cycle assessment.- Industrial ecology.- Sectoral energy and exergy utilization.- Sustainable energy policies.- Global warming and climate change issues and potential solutions.

presents analyses of sustainable energy systems and their applications, providing new understandings, methodologies, models and applications along with descriptions of several illustrative examples and case studies. This textbook aims to address key pillars in the field, such as: better efficiency, cost effectiveness, use of energy resources, environment, energy security, and sustainable development. It also includes some cutting-edge topics, such as hydrogen and fuel cells, renewable, clean combustion technologies, CO2 abatement technologies, and some potential tools for design, analysis and performance improvement.
