This introductory textbook offers students a comprehensive and accessible overview of the complex relationship between energy supply, energy markets and international politics.

The idea that energy shapes and is shaped by geopolitics is firmly rooted in the popular imagination - and not without reason. Very few countries have the means to secure their energy needs through locally available supplies; instead, enduring dependencies upon other countries have developed. Given energy's strategic significance, supply systems for fuels and electricity are now seamlessly interwoven with foreign policy and global politics. Energy and Geopolitics enables students to enhance their understanding of this field and sharpen their analytical skills. Per Högselius guides us through the complexities of world energy and international energy relations, examining a wide spectrum of fossil fuels, alongside nuclear and renewable energies. Uniquely, the book also shows how the geopolitics of energy is not merely a matter for the great powers and reveals how actors in the world's smaller nations are as active in their quest for power and control. This revised and expanded edition takes into account several dramatic shifts that have occurred in recent years in the global energy arena, including the spectacular renewables boom, the quest for transnational electricity grids and hydrogen trade, and the radical restructuring of global fossil fuel flows following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022 and the eruption of the Iran war in 2026.
