A broad and lively survey of British energy policy since 1979. The book blends economic analysis with political and historical narrative.

There is a particular focus on the role of government and the influence of technological advances. The revised edition includes a range of new material, including a new chapter on the White Paper on a low-carbon economy and updated discussions on nuclear power (to incorporate the 2003 Nuclear White Paper), price reviews, and emissions trading.
