American And Comparative Environmental Policy Ser

The American And Comparative Environmental Policy series provides critical academic insights into the mechanisms of environmental governance. This series explores the complex relationship between public policy, corporate interests, and the global effort to combat the climate crisis, focusing on the structural drivers of energy transitions.

In this volume, Joshua A. Basseches examines the role of investor-owned utilities in shaping state-level renewable energy policymaking. By analyzing twenty-five years of data across seven states, the series delves into how the ownership of the electricity grid influences the political preferences of interest groups and the ultimate success of clean energy initiatives.
