This book takes a fresh look at key terms and concepts around which energy research and policy are organised. Drawing on recent research in energy and transport studies, and combining this with concepts from sociology, economics, social theory and technology studies, the chapters review and challenge different aspects of received wisdom.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Energy Fables: Challenging Ideas in the Energy Sector takes a fresh look at key terms and concepts around which energy research and policy are organised. Drawing on recent research in energy and transport studies, and combining this with concepts from sociology, economics, social theory and technology studies, the chapters in this collection review and challenge different aspects of received wisdom. Brief but critical introductions to classic notions like those of energy efficiency, elasticity, energy services and the energy trilemma, together with discussions and analyses of well-worn phrases about low hanging fruit and keeping the lights on, articulate aspects of the energy debate that are often taken for granted. In re-working these established themes and adding twists to familiar tales, the authors develop a repertoire of new ideas about the fundamentals of energy demand and carbon reduction.This book presents a valuable and thought-provoking resource for students, researchers and policy-makers interested in energy demand, politics and policy.
