comprehensive framework for studying
electrical energy systems and then use that
framework to deconstruct and reassemble
the power system while providing analytical
tools to support further study. In particular,
the subjects covered are: * Why Does
Energy Matter, How Much Energy Is
Needed, Key Questions to Examine in the
Energy System, Constraints of the Energy
