Professor Dr Angèle H.M.E. Reinders, TU Delft University of Technology, The NetherlandsAngèle Reinders has been Professor of Energy-Efficient Design in the Design for Sustainability section of the Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering at Delft University of Technology since 2010. Previous to this she taught and conducted research in the Department of Design, Production and Management at the University of Twente. In 2001 Professor Reinders was a scientific advisor in the Asia Alternative Energy Program of the World Bank in Washington D.C. She has also been a guest researcher at Fraunhofer Institute, the Ministry of Technology in Jakarta, and ENEA in Naples. She has written many papers and developed educational materials for over seven courses, co-founded the editorship of IEEE Journal of Photovoltaics, and participated in the technical program committee of the IEEE PVSC conference. Dr Jan Carel Diehl, TU Delft University of Technology, The NetherlandsBefore becoming Assistant Professor of Sustainable Product Innovation for the Design for Sustainability (DfS) program at the faculty of Industrial Design Engineering at the Delft University of Technology, Dr Diehl worked for several years as a consultant in Ecodesign. Next to his position at Delft he is also a consultant for UNIDO and UNEP, and an invited lecturer at several international universities. He is co-author of the UNEP Design for Sustainability (D4S) manual for Developing Economies (D4S EE). Professor Dr Ir. Han Brezet, TU Delft University of Technology, The NetherlandsProfessor Han Brezt is currently Research Director of the IDE Faculty and has been Professor of Sustainable Product Design since 1992. He is also a member of the Management Team in the Faculty. Over several years he combined his job in Delft with a visiting professor's position at the Lund University and a senior fellowship at the University of Melbourne. Professor Brezet is also a member of the Jury for the Gasterra Energy Environmental Awards in the Hague and the Jury for the Gasterra Energy Transitions Award.

“This book, although it focuses on Sustainable Energy Technologies, brings forth  a good step-by-step analysis of the design process methodology that can be applied to any area of design . . . The Power of Design is an introduction to product innovation and contains key topics necessary for the design of sustainable and energy-efficient products using sustainable energy technologies . . . Although targeted towards university undergraduates and postgrads, I find this a practical guide for designers in the field as well.”  (EDN.com, 5 May 2013)“The Power of Design should have wide acceptance as the authors present images of an alternative future that is both achievable and desirable. The future maybe is already here will be a valuable addition to the libraries of medical schools that have added evolutionary biology to their curricula.”  (Energy Technology, 17 July 2013)
