A novel exploration of the deeper political, economic, and geopolitical history behind Germany''s daring campaign to restructure its energy system around green power. Since the 1990s, Germany has embarked on a daring campaign to restructure its energy system around renewable power, sparking a global revolution in solar and wind technology. But this pioneering energy transition has been plagued with problems. In Energy and Power, Stephen G. Gross explains the deeper origins of the Energiewende¿Germany''s transition to green energy¿and offers the first comprehensive history of German energy and climate policy from World War II to the present. The book follows the Federal Republic as it passed through five energy transitions from the dramatic shift to oil that nearly wiped out the nation''s hard coal sector, to the oil shocks and the rise of the Green movement in the 1970s and 1980s,the co-creation of a natural gas infrastructure with Russia, and the transition to renewable power today.
