My current project for Chatham House
and the Sussex Energy Group,
is 'Managing Energy: Rethinking The Fundamentals'. A series of Working Papers challenging the conventional view
of energy in society, and proposing a more promising vision - WP1, 'Managing Energy Wrong',
WP2, 'Managing Energy Data', and WP3, 'Managing Energy Technology'
- are now available. What was to have been WP4, on 'Managing Energy Business', is now evolving into a full-length book
entitled Rethinking Energy.
The 30th anniversary issue of Modern
Power Systems, January 2011, included my article entitled
Electricity To The Rescue, and the newsletter
New Power, February 2011,
my article entitled Even Newer Power.
On 13 March I wrote a comment for Chatham House on Japan's nuclear crisis.
On 13 April, at the Chernobyl 25th anniversary conference in Barcelona, I advocated
'Changing The Way The World Works'. On 6 May, at a historical symposium in Oxford
on 'Nuclear Power - Past, Present, Future?',
I recounted 'Nuclear Reactions'. On 10 June, at the
Equinox Summit in Waterloo, Ontario, I described the
'Electric Future'. On 4 November, at the Conference on the Assessment of Future Energy
Systems in Calgary, Alberta, I discussed 'Making Electricity Sustainable'.
You can now see a video of the presentation here.
My latest book, Keeping The Lights On: Towards Sustainable Electricity, is now available in paperback.
