Solar Revolution: The Economic Transformation of the Global Energy Industry

Date: Monday, June 1
Time: 6:30pm
Location: Trident Bookseller’s Cafe, 338 Newbury Street, Boston
RSVP: events@netimpactboston.org

Our book club choice for this June is Solar Revolution: The Economic Transformation of the Global Energy Industry.  This book was chosen with the intention of providing NIB members interested in the field of clean energy an opportunity to increase their proficiency and technical knowledge of the subject area.

In Solar Revolution, fund manager and former corporate buyout specialist Travis Bradford argues—on the basis of standard business and economic forecasting models—that over the next two decades solar energy will increasingly become the best and cheapest choice for most electricity and energy applications. Solar Revolution outlines the path by which the transition to solar technology and sustainable energy practices will occur.
