This book tells the story of one nation's sustained efforts to
steer its economy toward low carbon technologies and to define
national and global pathways for mitigating climate change. Drawing
on a long career in Germany's energy sector, and on subsequent
academic research, the book reveals the weaknesses of and critical
trade-offs in Germany's bold energy transition plan the
Energiewende and explores their causes. Its goal is to provide
insights to help policymakers and energy managers keep some of the
problems that have plagued the Energiewende at bay, and to instead
explore avenues that are more likely to succeed. While such
insights cannot solve the problem of socio-technical change
overnight, they do reveal alternative transition pathways that keep
climate goals clearly in sight, even if they are pursued with a bit
less exuberance and a bit more humility. The book is addressed to
academic, professional, and political readers alike.
