The European Energy Transition: Actors, Factors, Sectors

The energy transition is a European flagship project. It corresponds to a disruptive innovation cycle, which has just started, across Europe. The transition encompasses innovation in new technologies, business models, and processes, as well as institution building and change of governance models. While Europe at large is concerned, old divide lines continue to exist, and new ones emerge.

The EU has formulated ambitious objectives, and citizens support a common European energy policy - the Energy Union - as the Eurobarometer reveals regularly. This book analyzes the factors driving change; in particular the Climate agenda, the new active customer paradigm and changing attitudes, as well as businesses changing ('business model innovation') and new actors emerging. It proceeds with a reality check based on facts and figures, and describes the various aspects of the European Energy transition.
