This extensive Handbook captures a range of expertise and
perspectives on the changing geographies and landscapes of energy
production, distribution, and use. Combining established and
emerging scholarship from across disciplines, the expert
contributions provide a broad overview of research frontiers for
the changing geographies of energy worldwide. Interdisciplinary in
nature and broad in scope, it serves to answer a range of questions
and provide the reader with conceptual and methodological
foundations. The conversation spans the gamut from smart grids to
alternative fuels, discussed in a range of settings from India to
Nigeria and from Brazil to North America, highlighting the ways in
which new energy technologies and consumer dynamics are changing
the way people, places, and the physical world are interconnected
through energy systems. In addition to a compendium of regional
case studies, the Handbook identifies emerging conceptual and
methodological frameworks that help us better understand energy and
energy transitions. Unique in scope and breadth, this Handbook's
dual purpose as a capsule for existing and emerging geographical
perspectives on energy will be of immense value to students and
scholars in the social sciences, environmental sciences, and
humanities. Policymakers and planners will also benefit from the
novel perspectives and the illuminating exploration of geographic
information systems, community energy planning, and energy
landscapes. Contributors include: J.E. Baka, R.E. Baxter, K.
