Electricity Acts
Book details
Summary
Description
In the 1990s, the British government turned its whole electricity system upside down and inside out, privatizing and deregulating the utilities. The British model spread worldwide even to America. How did the British industry get into a state that required a revolution, and what did this revolution really accomplish?
The electricity revolution in Britain created millions of winners and losers consumers, coal miners, nuclear operators, investors, executives and politicians and the same process is ongoing in the United States. To be on the winning side, read Electricity Acts to learn how to survive and even thrive.
