Electricity transition(s): what Europe and the markets failed to tell you.

Summary "This is not the first time electricity has been transformed. After lighting our cities, making high-speed trains run, and modernizing agriculture, it now guides the surgeon's hand or the trajectory of missiles from a distance. This book recounts this incredible saga and reminds us that electricity, which cannot be stored, is not a commodity like any other. This particularity explains the difficulties of the liberalization of the electricity sector in the 1990s when Europe wanted to make it the tool of its renewal. Today, faced with the crisis and environmental issues, the Europe of energy is struggling to see the light of day. How can we make it happen? How much of it will be for renewable energies and nuclear power? And what kind of nuclear power are we talking about? These are the questions that run through this book, intended for decision-makers as well as citizen-consumers. [Source: 4th cover].
