Examines sustainable alternate energy sources, beginning with modeling hydropower and extending the model to include thermal power and wind power. This book uses various econometric measures, equilibrium metrics, or methods, and DEA/productivity analyses to analyze and model the optimal use of these alternate energy sources.

There are few more urgent topics in today's world, so full of ecological uncertainty. Hydropower Economics uses various econometric measures to examine sustainable alternative energy sources. It kicks off by modeling hydropower, yes, but it does not end there. Forsund has extended his model to include thermal power and wind power, too -- forms of alternative energy that are taking on an ever larger profile.
