Changing Energy outlines how humanity came to its current energy
economy through three previous energy transitions and now stands
poised for a necessary fourth one. Despite the immense benefits
conferred by a global energy economy based primarily on coal, oil,
gas, and uranium, societies must now rebuild their energy economies
to rely as much as possible on renewable energy used efficiently.
This imperative to change comes from the risks of climate change
plus the dangers of geopolitical tensions, health and environmental
effects, and the long-term prospects for ever depleting sources of
today's energy sources. Changing Energy argues that sustainability
of the benefits from energy services will come from investments
made in the technologies of the fourth transition. Perkins
envisions a viable post-fossil fuel energy economy and outlines the
barriers that must be resolved to reach it.
