Disruptive digital technologies are poised to reshape world energy
markets. A new wave of industrial innovation, driven by the
convergence of automation, artificial intelligence, and big data
analytics, is remaking energy and transportation systems in ways
that could someday end the age of oil. What are the
consequences—not only for the environment and for daily life but
also for geopolitics and the international order? Amy Myers Jaffe
provides an expert look at the promises and challenges of the
future of energy, highlighting what the United States needs to do
to maintain its global influence in a post-oil era. She surveys new
advances coming to market in on-demand travel services, automation,
logistics, energy storage, artificial intelligence, and 3-D
printing and explores how this rapid pace of innovation is altering
international security dynamics in fundamental ways. As the United
States vacillates politically about its energy trajectory, China is
proactively striving to become the global frontrunner in a
full-scale global energy transformation. In order to maintain its
leadership role, Jaffe argues, the United States must embrace the
digital revolution and foster American achievement. Bringing
together analyses of technological innovation, energy policy, and
geopolitics, Energy’s Digital Future gives indispensable insight
into the path the United States will need to pursue to ensure its
lasting economic competitiveness and national security in a new
energy age.
