In search of energy. Resource wars, new technologies and the future of energy.

The accident at the Fukushima nuclear power plant, the political crisis in the Middle East, Tunisia and North Africa - these events caused a new surge of uncertainty in the energy sector and once again emphasized the importance of energy for the modern world.

This book, full of real events and characters, is devoted to the history of the search for energy sources, on which our lives depend so much today. It tells about how the modern energy picture of the world has been formed, how it is changing under the influence of problems related to carbon dioxide emissions and global warming, and what our energy future may be. The author tries to answer three fundamental questions. Will humanity be able to meet the growing global energy needs, at what cost and with what technologies? How to ensure energy security, namely the reliability of energy systems? How will environmental issues, including climate change, affect the future of energy, and how will energy development affect the environment?
