Synopsis
Based on close to two hundred interviews with decision-makers, government officials, and industry stakeholders, Karoline Steinbacher presents the first in-depth enquiry into Germany's efforts of "exporting" its sustainable energy policies. The book closes the empirical gap in understanding how Germany's leadership influences the transfer of renewable energy policy to three heterogeneous cases, namely Morocco, South Africa, and California.
