In high-income countries, energy is foundational for industry, daily living, transportation, entertainment, and more. But, like other critical resources, it is limited and the availability of energy sources varies, from oilrich Norway to windswept Denmark to a geothermalpowered Iceland. The five Nordic countries may be at the forefront of the "green transition," but neither the history of energy nor its present trajectory are uniform in the region. Aberg and Rudiger outline the history of energy in the Nordic countries from the industrial revolution in the nineteenth century to the present day and a more sustainable future.
