About the Book: The book, consists of a detailed review on the world's transition using fossil fuels to renewable energy. Since climate change, energy uncertainty, and economic inequality are happening all at once, this book gives a helpful and practical approach to understanding the green energy transition of the 21st century. Using knowledge from economics, public policy, innovation studies, and strategic management, gives readers a thorough way to examine the shift to low-carbon energy systems. It discusses the advantages and disadvantages of renewable energy, studies different ways to price carbon, and looks at how businesses and governments can support the economy, and care for the environment and society. The book is built on the combination of theory and practical examples, including 50 case studies from different parts of the world, such as carbon trading in the EU, and ESG strategies by companies and energy cooperatives. Such cases demonstrate the different problems and chances involved in making energy systems resilient, fair, and modern. In line with various United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the book points out that sustainable energy can help achieve other goals, such as including more people in the economy, promoting new and innovative industrial ideas, strengthening cities resilience, protecting the climate, and encouraging global partnerships. The book helps readers understand the challenges of the green transition and encourages them to take part in making it happen. This book is meant for academics, researchers, graduate students, industry leaders, and policymakers, as it explains how we can improve our energy systems, without harming the economy, nature, and society.
