Description
Global Energy Dilemmas explores the key aspects of the current global energy system and its challenges. The book examines how it is playing out across major regions and countries, focusing on energy security, economic development, and climate change.
The author charts the development of the current global energy system, then delves into four distinct global energy dilemmas: sustaining affluence in developed economies, liberalisation's impact in post-socialist nations, growing demand in emerging regions, and universal access to modern energy services in developing countries. The book concludes that an integrated approach is necessary to tackle the global energy dilemma.
By identifying governance structures and policy options, Global Energy Dilemmas offers a nuanced understanding of the complex issues at play. This analysis provides valuable insights for those seeking to understand the current state of the global energy system and its future directions.
