These developments have eased a possible transition to a lower-carbon energy system, itself crucial for addressing global climate change. Yet as wind and solar power grow beyond minimal levels, they are highly disruptive to existing electricity systems and economies. The analytical starting point for this book is that a renewable energy transition requires a large-scale political economy transition. That is, successful energy transitions mean changing a series of political and economic arrangements even as they also demand new physical infrastructure and patterns of electricity consumption"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Renewable energy resources $x Research $z Brazil. 650 0 $a Renewable energy resources $x Research $z South Africa. 651 0 $a Brazil $x Economic policy $y 21st century. 651 0 $a South Africa $x Economic policy. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Hochstetler, Kathryn, 1962- $t Political economies of energy transition $b 1. $d New York : Cambridge University Press, 2020. $z 9781108920353 $w (DLC) 2020026271 830 0 $a Business and public policy 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220105020143.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=65E197A07CB711EB8C51190E5AECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
