Energy transitions are fundamental to achieving a zero-carbon
economy. This book explains the urgently needed transition in
energy systems from the perspective of the global political
economy. It develops an historical, global, political and
ecological account of key features of energy transitions: from
their production and financing, to how they are governed and
mobilised. Informed by direct engagement in projects of energy
transition, the book provides an accessible account of the
real-world dilemmas in accelerating transitions to a low carbon
economy. As well as changes to technology, markets, institutions
and behaviours, Power Shift shows that shifts in power relations
between and within countries, and across social groups and
political actors, are required if the world is to move onto a more
sustainable path. Using contemporary and historical case studies to
explore energy transitions, it will be of interest to students and
researchers across disciplines, policymakers and activists.
