The Sustainable Energy Resource Handbook Volume 2
Alive2green is proud to announce the arrival of Volume 2 of the Sustainable Energy Resource Handbook which will be published in June 2011 with a distribution of between 8000 and 15 000 readers. Volume 2 of the Handbook is peer-reviewed and authors submissions will reviewed for academic publication by a panel consisting of some of South Africa’s top researchers and sector experts. The peer-review process is in keeping with international academic handbook standards as well as requirements from publication stakeholders such as CSIR, but is also linked with the generation of the eLearning modules that will now be associated with all Volumes of the Handbook.
The newly launched Alive2green eLearning modules can be found on the www.alive2green.com/education platform and soon to join the current 6 Eco-Building modules and certificates will be at least four Sustainable Water eLearning Modules and one Certificate Course.
