Ren Z: Transition Road

Transition Road

Why the Electric Car Already Won, and Still Feels Stuck

Capital, Policy &amp; Power: The Complete Investor's Guide to the Global Renewable Energy TransitionThe global energy transition is no longer a question of whether - it is a question of how capital survives it. Spanning eight volumes and 42 chapters, Capital, Policy &amp; Power is the first institutional-grade investment treatise to map the full complexity of deploying capital into renewable energy across jurisdictions, technologies, and geopolitical regimes. Written for portfolio managers, infrastructure equity partners, project finance bankers, sovereign wealth fund analysts, and energy-focused fund managers, this work moves beyond advocacy and scepticism alike to deliver what the market has lacked: a rigorous, integrated framework for evaluating where real money meets real risk in the energy transition.At the heart of the book is the proprietary RISS (Renewable Investment Stability Score) - a multi-dimensional analytical framework that synthesises policy stability, grid infrastructure capacity, revenue structure, counterparty quality, technology obsolescence risk, and geopolitical context into a composite scoring methodology. RISS enables institutional investors to compare renewable energy opportunities across markets with the same analytical discipline they would apply to sovereign credit or infrastructure concession risk.Volume I establishes the macroeconomic and physical foundations: why cheap energy certainty has ended, what the electrification shock means for demand curves, why grid constraint has become the binding scarcity, and why the industry's standard metric - LCOE - has systematically misled capital allocators. Volumes II and III dissect the geography and mechanics of risk across the world's major energy investment theatres: the American tax-credit machine, Europe's stability model, China's industrial strategy, India's growth gamble, and the sovereign-backed solar states of the Gulf and Southeast Asia. Curtailment dynamics, merchant volatility modelling, storage revenue stacking, and the weaponisation of cost of capital as policy instrument are examined with the quantitative depth that institutional decision-making demands.Volumes IV through VI construct and apply the RISS framework, before confronting the geopolitical forces reshaping energy markets in real time - including the 2026 Iran-US conflict, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. policy retrenchment under the "One Big Beautiful Bill," the coal revival, the nuclear renaissance, and the rare earth supply chain crisis laid bare by the Trump-Xi summit. Volume VII maps America's energy dominance doctrine against China's industrial counter-strategy, with dedicated analysis of India, ASEAN, and the emerging Asian energy investment playbook. Volume VIII ventures to the frontier horizon: space-based solar power, Japan's OHISAMA programme, orbital AI data centres, and the commercial viability of off-Earth energy infrastructure.Published in its First Edition in May 2026, this work incorporates analysis current through the most significant disruption to global energy markets since the 1973 oil embargo - and demonstrates, with uncomfortable precision, that the frameworks developed herein anticipated the very crises now unfolding. Capital, Policy &amp; Power is not a book about why renewable energy matters. It is a book about how to invest in it without losing your capital, your discipline, or your strategic clarity.By Lankan Bal (JP) | First Edition, May 2026 |

The Truth About Farming, Climate and Power in Ireland

The Lie of the Land

Das Buch analysiert das rekursive Verhältnis von Recht und Organisationen (Verwaltungen, Unternehmen, NGOs). Rechtliche Normen formen Organisationen mit und sollen ihnen einen stabilen Handlungsrahmen geben. Gleichzeitig setzen Organisationen Gesetze um und gestalten Normen etwa durch Compliance, Rechtsinterpretation oder auch brauchbare Illegalität mit. Zudem sind sie aktiv an der Gesetzentwicklung beteiligt, etwa durch Lobbying und Beratung. Im Ergebnis zeigen wir mit Beispielen im Bereich Energiewende und Digitalisierung, wie Recht und Organisationen in iterativen Schleifen einander so beeinflussen, dass organisationaler Wandel durch rechtliche Normen mitgeformt wird und die Rechtsentwicklung von Organisationen mitbestimmt wird. 

Dieser Titel erscheint auch Open Access.

Energy Transition in the Oil and Gas Industry

A new way to tackle the real politics of climate change through asset revaluation

It’s no secret that the Paris Agreement and voluntary efforts to address climate change are failing. Governments have spent three decades crafting international rules to manage the climate crisis yet have made little progress on decarbonization. In Existential Politics, Jessica Green explains why this is unsurprising: governments have misdiagnosed the political problem of climate change, focusing relentlessly on measuring, reporting, and trading emissions. This technical approach of "managing tons" ignores the ways that climate change and climate policy will revalue assets, creating winners and losers. Policies such as net zero, carbon pricing, and offsets all cater to the losers—owners of fossil assets.

Ultimately, Green contends, climate change is a political problem. Climate politics should be understood as existential—creating conflicts that arise when some actors face the prospect of the devaluation or elimination of their assets or competition from the creation of new ones. Fossil asset owners, such as oil and gas companies and electric utilities, stand to lose trillions in the energy transition. Thus, they are fighting to slow decarbonization and preserve the value of their assets. Green asset owners, who will be the basis of the decarbonized economy, are fewer in number and relatively weak politically.

Green proposes using international tax, finance, and trade institutions to create new green asset owners and constrain fossil asset owners, reducing their clout. Domestic investments in green assets, facilitated by global trade rules, can build the political power of green asset owners.

Climate change represents one of humanity’s most profound and uncertain challenges—demanding innovation, cooperation, and systemic transformation. Decarbonization Policy Engineering: Energy Transition and Regional Cooperation in East Asia provides a comprehensive, interdisciplinary framework for navigating this transition.
Structured around three core themes:
1. 2. 3. Innovations for a Decarbonized Society: This segment broadens the scope to cross-cutting enablers of decarbonization. It covers climate finance, carbon accounting, technological breakthroughs, consumer behavior, carbon border mechanisms, life cycle assessment, and sector-specific strategies for waste management and residential energy use.

By treating uncertainty not as a barrier but as a catalyst for innovation, this book redefines the future of energy policy. It serves as an essential compass for policymakers, researchers, and practitioners striving to engineer a sustainable, carbon-neutral future for East Asia—and beyond.

Hydrogen is increasingly seen as a key element of Europe's energy transition, central to both decarbonisation and energy security. This edited volume provides a comprehensive and systematic analysis of what can be called "Hydrogen Law" in the European Union and Europe, examining how law and governance are shaping the emergence of a hydrogen market.The volume brings together leading academic and practitioner perspectives to analyse the evolving regulatory framework for hydrogen across the entire value chain, from production and certification to infrastructure, markets, public funding, and international trade. It situates hydrogen within EU energy and climate law, explores key concepts such as renewable and low-carbon hydrogen, and addresses cross-cutting issues including state aid, network regulation, planning, public participation, and justice. Combining general legal analysis with regional and comparative case studies - such as hydrogen valleys, hubs, and partnerships with third countries - the volume highlights regulatory challenges, emerging solutions, and future pathways towards a coherent European hydrogen law.The book is aimed at scholars, policymakers, regulators, legal practitioners, and advanced students working in energy law, EU law, sustainability, and the energy transition, as well as stakeholders involved in hydrogen markets and infrastructure development.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.

Hydrogen Law in the European Union and Europe

Bolivia's troubled efforts to develop a commercial lithium industry. Bolivia's lithium accounts for a significant percentage of the world's known reserve. Drawing on extensive ethnographic research, Mark Goodale traces the development of Bolivia's closely guarded lithium project through the perspectives of a wide array of people and institutions, including workers at the Salar de Uyuni, the world's largest salt flat; the state lithium company in La Paz; Latin America's first electric vehicle company; and energy entrepreneurs in Bolivia, the United States, and Germany. He points to a fundamental contradiction: a so-called green energy transition dependent on the ever-greater extraction of yet another nonrenewable resource. But without access to Bolivia's lithium, and at megaindustrial scales that far outstrip current production, there won't be sufficient lithium supply to make the batteries needed for a truly global EV revolution. Extracting the Future shows how the lithium economy is deeply embedded in a global capitalist system that continues to rely on resource extraction, unsustainable economic growth, and geopolitical violence.

Extracting the Future

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2025 im Fachbereich BWL - Wirtschaftspolitik, Note: Final year, University of Nigeria (Bauchi State University), Veranstaltung: Economics, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Nigeria faces a critical paradox of abundant fossil fuel reserves yet persistent energy poverty and unreliable electricity supply that undermine economic growth. Despite vast renewable energy potential, adoption has remained limited due to financial,
infrastructural, and policy barriers. This study empirically examines the contribution of renewable energy adoption to Nigeria's sustainable economic growth from 1990 to 2023, applying the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach. The research
pursued four objectives: to assess the effect of renewable energy's share in total final consumption and installed capacity on real GDP growth; to evaluate the impact of macroeconomic variables such as foreign direct investment (FDI), population growth, energy use per capita, and inflation on growth; and to identify the key policy and institutional challenges influencing renewable energy adoption.

The study addresses gaps in previous literature, which often relied on dated data, aggregated energy sources, or neglected macroeconomic and policy determinants. Findings indicate a significant long-run positive relationship between renewable energy adoption and GDP growth, though short-run effects remain modest due to high capital costs and infrastructural weaknesses. FDI and energy consumption per capita exert positive effects on growth, while inflation undermines stability and investment. The study recommends expanding renewable infrastructure through blended finance, ensuring policy consistency to attract private capital, upgrading grid and off-grid systems, and fostering vocational training for a skilled green workforce. Strengthening governance and reducing regulatory barriers will be critical to realizing Nigeria's Energy Transition Plan and meeting climate commitments while driving inclusive economic growth.

Advances in African Economic, Social and Political Development

As the global shift toward a green economy accelerates, the demand for critical raw minerals—such as cobalt, lithium, and rare earth elements—has surged, placing Africa at the center of a new geopolitical landscape. Resource-rich countries on the continent are increasingly becoming focal points of competition among global powers, including the EU, the US, and China.This growing interest brings with it significant geopolitical, economic, environmental, and security implications. This book offers insights into the evolving geopolitics surrounding Africa’s critical raw minerals within the context of the global green transition.It critically examines the concept of “green growth” as it applies to Africa, exploring challenges related to resource security, the risk of perpetuating historical patterns of exploitation, and the environmental and social impacts of large-scale mining activities.Ultimately, this book seeks to answer a pressing question: Is Africa’s green transition truly sustainable, or is it another form of resource extraction under the banner of sustainability?The first part of the book provides a macro-level perspective, focusing on the global race for African resources and the broader concept of green growth. The second part presents a series of case studies that explore the topic from socioeconomic, developmental, environmental, and legal angles.

Studies in Energy, Resource and Environmental Economics

This textbook provides a clear and comprehensive economic perspective on energy transition, highlighting that it involves more than just replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy. It discusses critical interventions in the optimizing decisions of economic agents to achieve a reliable and sustainable future.
Students learn about the conditions under which such interventions can improve societal welfare, building on the fundamental economic principle that optimal outcomes arise when coordination mechanisms function effectively.
The book explores key motivations and drivers behind energy transition policies, including the depletion of energy resources, energy security, environmental impacts of fossil fuel use, and the challenges of high and volatile energy prices. It provides detailed analyses of the efficiency, effectiveness, and distributional effects of various government policy measures, such as capacity mechanisms, energy taxation, renewable energy support schemes, and emissions trading systems.
In addition to a societal and governmental perspective, the book discusses the roles of stakeholders within energy systems – such as producers, grid operators and consumers, as well stakeholders within organizations—such as shareholders, employees, and customers—in driving the energy transition. While grounded in economic principles, it integrates insights from other disciplines, including engineering, law, and social sciences, to provide a holistic understanding of energy systems and their transformation.
Designed for students and scholars, this book equips readers with the knowledge and tools to understand the economic principles underpinning a reliable and sustainable energy future.
