Though oil prices have been on a downward trajectory in recent
months, that doesn't obscure the fact that fossil fuels are finite,
and we will eventually have to grapple with the end of their
dominance. At the same time, however, skepticism about the
alternatives remains: we've never quite achieved the promised 'too
cheap to meter' power of the future, be it nuclear, solar, or wind.
And hydrogen and bio-based fuels are thus far a disappointment. So
what does the future of energy look like? The Tesla Revolution has
the answers. In clear, unsensational style, Willem Middelkoop and
Rembrandt Koppelaar offer a layman's tour of the energy landscape,
now and to come. They show how rapid technological advances in
batteries and solar technologies are already driving large-scale
transformations in power supply, while economic and geopolitical
changes, combined with a growing political awareness that there are
alternatives to fossil fuels will combine in the coming years to
bring an energy revolution ever closer. Within in our lifetimes,
the authors argue, we will see changes that will reshape economics,
the balance of political power, and even the most mundane aspects
of our daily lives. Determinedly forward-looking and optimistic,
though never straying from hard facts, The Tesla Revolution paints
a striking picture of our global energy future.
