Lessons from previous energy transitions

Welcome to the first part of a three-part series exploring the implications of the recently published Energy Institute Statistical Review of World Energy on the pace of the energy transition from Energy Institute Chief Executive Nick Wayth FEI. In part 1, he’ll discuss how energy transitions have occurred historically; what might be the same this time and what might be different. In part 2, he’ll explore a hypothetical version of the world in which the energy transition could be taking place very differently. And finally, in part 3, he’ll try to draw some conclusions on implications for the real world.
