Global warming has become a worldwide environmental problem,which has threatened human survival and hindered sustainable development.In recent years,renewable energy has been a hot topic all over the world.Solar energy,as a kind of new energy resources,can provide great environmental benefits by reducing greenhouse gas emssions.The solar photovoltaic(PV)industry has developed into a significant renewable energy business.However,rapid renewable energy deployment is complicated by environmental trade-offs.Compared with global climate change,the potential environmental impacts of renewable energy may be overlooked.The translator selects Chapters 1 and 20 of A Comprehensive Guide to Solar Energy Systems:With Special Focus on Photovoltaic Systems as the source text.Under the guidance of Reiss’s Text Typology Theory,the report discusses the methods and strategies in the E-C translation of English for Science and Technology(EST)texts.The report mainly consists of four chapters.Chapter One is the task description,which mainly introduces the background information of the source text,the features of the text and its significance.Chapter Two describes the translation process,including preparations before translation,translation duration and quality control.As the core part of the translation report,Chapter Three is the case analysis,which mainly employs some methods and techniques to analyze the source text and the translated text at lexical,syntactic and discourse levels.Chapter Four is the conclusion of the translation practice,which mainly summarizes the experience and reflections in the translation practice,and lists some unsolved problems that occurred in the process of translation.This paper provides a detailed introduction to solar energy.It is sincerely expected to increase people’s understanding of solar energy and its potential impacts to achieve sustainable development of the photovoltaic industry.The author hopes that the accurate conveyance of the information of the EST test can be achieved based on Reiss’ Text Typology Theory.
