About the Book: «The Economics of Renewable Energy: The Green Energy Transition» book, consists of a detailed review on the world's transition using fossil fuels to renewable energy. Climate change, energy uncertainty and economic inequality are all occurring simultaneously and this book provides a useful and practical roadmap of comprehending the green energy transition of the 21 st century. It brings the reader an in-depth approach to understand the transition to low-carbon energy systems using information about economics, public policy, innovation studies, economic warfare and strategic management. It talks about the merits and demerits of renewable energy, research on various methods of charging carbon and how companies and governments can contribute to the economy, as well as take care of the environment and the society. The book is framed upon the theory and real-life examples in which 50 case studies are provided across the various regions of the world, such as the carbon trading in the EU, and the ESG strategies of the companies and energy cooperatives. These examples illustrate the various issues and opportunities in the process of resilience, equity, and modernization of energy systems. As the United Nations sustainable development goals (SDGs) highlight, the book indicates that sustainable energy can support other objectives, which include ensuring more persons are included in the economy, securing new and innovative industrial concepts, ensuring cities resilience, safeguarding the climate, and fostering partnerships in the world. The book makes the readers realize the difficulties of the green transition and they are urged to participate in the process of the transition. Academics, researchers, graduate students, industry leaders, entrepreneurs and policy makers are the target audience of this book, because it describes how we can achieve a better global energy system, without damaging the economy, nature and the society.
