‘The Handbook of Energy Innovation is, in some 30 plus chapters by leading subject matter experts, a timely compilation of the complex challenges of improving energy access worldwide while simultaneously addressing issues of climate change and global warming. Drs. Anadon, Malhotra, Sagar and Verdolini have done an outstanding job in choosing topics spanning current state of the art in clean energy innovation and strategies from both OECD and Global South subject matter experts. This compendium will, in my view, be an invaluable resource to those involved in implementing energy policy and in the education of researchers interested in advancing this important field.’
