Description
<p><i>Electrification: Accelerating the Energy Transition </i>offers a widely applicable framework to delineate context-sensitive pathways by which this transition can be accelerated and lists the types of processes and structures that may hinder progress towards this goal. The framework draws insights from well-established literature, ranging from technological studies to socio-technical studies of energy transitions, on to strategic niche management approaches, (international) political economy approaches, and institutionalist literatures, while also adopting wider social theoretical ideas from structuration theory. Contributors discuss a multitude of case studies drawn from global examples of electrification projects. </p> <p>Brief case studies and text boxes help users further understand this domain and the technological, infrastructural and societal structures that may exercise significant powers.</p>
