Rising fuel prices during recent years and the threat of global
warming have reinforced public and scientific interest in the issue
of sustainable energy, with the term sustainability understood as
having economic, environmental and social dimensions. Renewable
energy is seen as an effective means to address several problems
simultaneously, including climate change, exploitation of
non-renewable resources, the high volatility of energy prices on
the global markets, dependency on fuels from politically unstable
countries (energy-insecurity) and the transfer of wealth to these
countries. This book addresses these and related topics including
the diffusion of renewable technologies. Policies to induce
sustainable energy use and production are discussed by researchers
from a range of different disciplines. The result is a use-oriented
and multidisciplinary perspective concerning policies to support
sustainable energy use and production, which will be of great use
to researchers and academics alike.
