Synopsis
This book is an examination of the United States Electrical Grid and its influence on the nation's prosperity and security. Beginning with the early history of electricity and the development of electricity generation and transmission technology, the author provides historical context for the evolution of the current grid system. The author goes on to discuss the vulnerabilities of the grid to natural disasters, vulnerabilities of an aging infrastructure system, and possible threats from malicious attacks. The book discusses the evolving role of fossil fuels and renewable energy and their impacts on the future of the grid. The author includes thoroughly researched case studies of specific power outages, near misses, and successful emergency responses to make an argument about the urgency of the need for a more robust and adaptable electrical grid.
