There has been ever increasing interest in understanding the various aspects of available resources and production, in terms of need and supply, conservation and environmental impacts and so on. From the current energy scenario, it is very clear that there are serious challenges related in achieving energy sustainability and security worldwide. The aim of this book is to present an overview of progress made towards energy sustainability addressing concerns regarding carbon emission and clean energy resources. Keeping this in mind, the book has chapters on all major energy sources which are being utilized at present, along with those having potential prospects for future.

Dr. Atul Sharma received his Ph.D. on the "Effect on Thermophysical Properties of PCMs due to Thermal Cycles and Their Utilization for Solar Thermal Energy Storage Systems" in the School of Energy and Environmental Studies at Devi Ahilya University, India. After, he worked as a Scientific Officier at the Regional Testing Centre Cum Technical Backup Unit for Solar Thermal Devices in the School of Energy & Environmental Studies at Devi Ahilya University Indore, funded by the Ministry of Non-Conventional Energy Sources, New Delhi, Govt. Of India. He also worked as a Research Assistant at Solar Thermal Research Center and the New & Renewable Energy Research Department at Korea Institute of Energy Research. Dr. Sharma has been a Visiting Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Kun Shan University in Taiwan.
