The global energy transition from carbon-intensive to renewable
fuels has increasingly demanded a better understanding of the
causes and consequences of the rapid development of unconventional
oil and gas. Focusing on key countries including the United States,
Canada, China, Argentina, the United Kingdom and Australia, this
book consists of case studies and in-depth analyses that weigh up
the risks and rewards at regional, national and global scales.
Explaining how and why unconventional fuels are transforming the
global energy landscape, the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities
and threats are explored through a political, economic and
governance-based perspective. Emphasis is placed on how to regulate
the industry, encompassing local issues, stakeholder engagement and
the social licence to operate. The new baseline studies and
standards introduced in this book provide a timely insight into the
trade-offs across the social, economic and environmental domains,
making this ideal for researchers and policymakers in energy
fields, and for graduate students.
