Preface

The author of this textbook intends to consider all stages of the life cycle of the energy resources: extraction of mineral energy resources and mastering for power engineering renewable energy, transportation of mineral energy raw materials to the place of consumption, the conversion of primary energy sources into electrical and/or thermal energy, transportation and distribution among the customers, and energy storage (if necessary). The author hopes that this approach—an analysis in the book of all main issues of the current state, problems and prospects for the most important sectors of the modern economy and daily life—power engineering—will allow the reader with minimal time and effort to get a holistic view of it. Naturally, such an approach does not allow all the problems to be considered deeply enough. This is the task of specialized textbooks and monographs. In these circumstances, all the questions in the textbook were conditionally div
