The Routledge Handbook of Energy Transitions draws upon a unique and
multidisciplinary network of experts from around the world to explore
the expanding field of energy transitions. This Handbook recognizes
that considerable changes are underway or are being developed for the
modes in which energy is sourced, delivered, and utilized. Employing a
sociotechnical approach that accounts for economics and engineering,
as well as more cross-cutting factors, including innovation, policy
and planning, and management, the volume considers contemporary ideas
and practices that characterize the field. The book explores pressing
issues, including choices about infrastructure, the role of food
systems and materials, sustainability, and energy democracy.
Disruption is a core theme throughout, with the authors examining
topics such as digitalization, extreme weather, and COVID-19, along
with regional similarities and differences. Overall, the Routledge
Handbook of Energy Transitions advances the field of energy
transitions by connecting ideas, taking stock of empirical insights,
and challenging how we think about the theory and practice of energy
systems change. This innovative volume functions as an authoritative
roadmap with both regional and global relevance. It will be an
essential resource for students, policymakers, researchers, and
practitioners researching and working in the fields of energy
transitions, planning, environmental management and policy,
sustainable business, engineering, science and technology studies,
political science, geography, design anthropology, and environmental
justice. “With the exception of Chapter 26, no part of this book may
