An energy transition (or energy system transformation) is a major structural change to energy supply and consumption in an energy system. Currently, a transition to sustainable energy is underway to limit climate change. Most of the sustainable energy is renewable energy. Therefore, another term for energy transition is renewable energy transition. The current transition aims to reduce. FieldEnergy policy, SustainabilityPurposeTo transition from fossil-based energy systems to renewable and low-carbon energy sourcesDefinitionAn energy transition is a broad shift in technologies and behaviours that are needed to replace one source of energy with another. A prime example is the change from a pre-industrial system relying on traditional. . After the, the term energy transition was coined by politicians and media. It was popularised by in his 1977 Address on the Nation on Energy, calling to "look back into history to u. . Historic approaches to past energy transitions are shaped by two main discourses. One argues that humankind experienced several energy transitions in its past, while the other suggests the term "energy ad. .
