It covers the broad spectrum that needs to be covered as a first course in renewable energy. I wish it had more classic homework at the back of the chapter (multiple choice, T/F, etc). I am trained and educated energy myself as well as an instructor, there are a few points that need more research. I can easily handle that as an instructor, but a beginning student might be a little mislead. Not on purpose, just due to some missing pieces. Overall I would recommend it and will be using it myself in class.
