Among the hundreds of books about potential U.S. climate policies, only
Smart Power covers all of the major electricity policy topics in a single text and in
language everyone can understand: climate, energy efficiency, smart grid, transmission, renewable energy, and energy
regulation.
Due to the popularity of Smart Power as an
educational resource for students of environmental studies, public policy, and business strategy, Peter Fox-Penner has
developed a study guide to accompany the Smart Power text. This
comprehensive study guide contains summaries, exam questions, discussion questions, and power point presentations will be
available for professors.
Professors and instructors can visit

of Smart Power for review. Please review the Island Press textbook
examination copy policy before placing your request.
Recent Academic Review of the Study Guide
"Many commentators have argued that the global energy system will change more in the next decade than it has in the last century. To navigate this complex terrain, you couldn't ask for a better guide than Dr. Peter Fox-Penner. In his book Smart Power, Dr. Fox-Penner provides a fascinating account of how new technologies, policies, and business models may create a more secure, intelligent, and sustainable energy system. Policymakers, business leaders, and the general public all have a huge stake in this transformation, and have much to learn from Fox-Penner's insights."
