Energy and power are critical requirements for economic growth. With rising global wealth, global oil and power demand is rising even as the energy mix is changing. The push toward less carbon-intensive fuel and power substitutes is gaining momentum. But material science realities present some significant challenges and limitations — especially with growing demand. The Future of Energy examines a dozen major trends that will impact energy demand, supply, use, and substitution in the decade ahead — and how companies, industries, and individuals can be prepared!

For centuries, electricity was seen as little more than a curious property of certain substances that sparked when rubbed. Then, in the 1790s, Alessandro Volta began the scientific investigation that ignited an explosion of knowledge and invention. The force that once seemed inconsequential was revealed to be responsible for everything from the structure of the atom to the functioning of our brains. In harnessing its power, we have created a world of wonders—complete with roller coasters and radar, computer networks and psychopharmaceuticals.

Feed the Dragon is a detailed study of China's battery mineral operations in Africa. The U.S. and China are chief rivals in the international system and part of this competition includes the race for increasingly limited critical minerals. Africa, once the preserve of Western colonial powers, is open for business and their raw materials are on the table for discussion. To date, China has engaged the African nations in a persistent and comprehensive manner to secure their mineral needs in order to feed their growing battery and electric vehicle industries. While there are serious challenges ...

In the mid- to late-19th century, a burgeoning science called electricity promised to shine new light on a rousing nation. Inventive and ambitious minds were hard at work. Soon that spark was fanned, and a war was under way to be the first to light - and run - the world with electricity. Thomas Alva Edison, the inventor of direct current (DC), engaged in a brutal battle with Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse, the inventors of alternating current (AC). There would be no ties in this race - only a winner and a loser - and the prize was a nationwide monopoly in electric current.
