Reviews: From the End of Energy and Unlocking Energy Innovation

Abstract

The End of Energy provides a good historical overview how the US energy system ended up in its current state, where the United States, with only 4 percent of the world’s population, consumes one-quarter of the energy the world uses each year. Unlocking Energy Innovation again gives an action plan how to close the resulting big energy efficiency gap to Europe and Japan.
