Green Energy Economies offers insight into the major drivers that
are shaping a new future powered by clean energy sources.
Assembling cutting-edge researchers as contributors, the book
provides a comprehensive account of the shift underway, examining
in detail the complexities and intricacies involved with such a
transition. The book first details the promises and problems of a
green energy transition. Next, it explores the economic benefits
that a comprehensive strategy toward a green energy economy might
create. Then it investigates how communities will be affected and
explores the social, cultural, and other changes that are likely to
result. Finally, it explores the shift toward new technologies
in-depth. Green Energy Economies concludes with policy options that
support a transition to a better energy, environmental, and
economic future. The contributors argue that a green energy economy
offers great promise, but its realization will require making hard
choices, and soon. They argue for investments in renewable energy
and economic systems that can deliver a sustainable and equitable
future. This book makes a forceful case for a green future.
