Blind spots in energy transition policy: Case studies from Germany and USA
Energy Reports, 2019 Energy transitions aim at economic prosperity through ‘green-collar’ job-creation, greater energy ‘independence’, and/or reduced emissions. These objectives imply creating policy-supported national renewable technology industries, ideally reducing clean ...
