Description

This volume examines energy security in a privatized, liberalized, and increasingly global energy market, in which the concept of sustainability has developed together with a higher awareness of environmental issues, but where the potential for supply disruptions, price fluctuation, and threats to infrastructure safety must also be considered.

Features

  • Energy Security problems are common: there have been major difficulties in California, New Zealand, Brazil, France, and (most recently) in the Eastern USA and Canada.
  • This book is unique in covering what the state, through law, requires energy providers to do in order to prevent such crises.
