Bøker av Simone Tagliapietra

This book was originally published by Claeys and Casteels, now formally part of Edward Elgar Publishing. This book seeks to provide a comprehensive analysis of all these developments, with the ultimate aim of assessing the realistic implications of regional gas discoveries for both Eastern Mediterranean countries and the EU.

This book provides a rigorous and accessible portrayal of global energy fundamentals. The author uses a multi-disciplinary approach to present each component of the global energy system (oil, gas, coal, nuclear energy, hydropower, solar and wind energy), as well as issues of climate change and energy access in developing countries.

This open access book presents a picture of the current energy challenges on the African continent (and the Sub-Saharan region in particular) and proposes pathways to an accelerated energy transition.

The author posits that regional energy relations have yet to be examined through a comprehensive analytical framework in order to realistically assess the potential role of energy in acting as a catalyst for greater economic and political cooperation in the region.
