The move toward sustainable energy production and use is one the most challenging and profound changes currently taking place in the world's established and emerging economies. Energy and Innovation: Structural Change and Policy Implications presents a series of informative case studies from Norway, the United Kingdom, Poland, the United States, Russia, Japan, and China that demonstrate how the pace of sustainable energy production differs by country. This variability is examined under three section headings: Part 1, Sustainable Energy Challenges and Policies; Part 2, Innovation Challenges in Different Economic Contexts; and Part 3, The Adoption of Energy Solutions by Different Technology and Organization Sectors. Part 1 examines the challenges of increasing sustainable energy production. Part 2 presents challenges to innovation in different economic systems. Part 3 surveys the range of industry sectors that are adopting environmentally friendly solutions.
