Abstract
This chapter introduces the book. This ninth collection in a series published by the Center for Energy and Value Issues (CEVI) discusses environmental, social, and governance (ESG) topics in the energy industry, and it does so from the perspectives of macro-economic demand and supply, micro-economic market policies, and financial value creation by companies. The book employs an international approach, by taking examples from specific countries and country blocks. In doing so, it contributes to the global research body on an increasingly being recognized as pivotal topic for this planet. The book is meant for reading by academics and practitioners alike, and the editors trust that it will be well received.
