Har du nogensinde tænkt over hvad der er bag stikkontakten? The Visual Guide to the Power Grid – Inside the Greatest Machine in the World er en illustreret rundtur i det fascinerende elsystem. Bogen viser det sammenknyttede netværk af brølende maskiner, knitrende infrastruktur og gigantiske investeringer som tilsammen sikrer, at der elektricitet i stikkontakten lige når du har brug for det.Bogen giver svar på spørgsmål som: Hvad foregår der under kølerhjelmen på et kraftværk eller i toppen af vindmølle? Hvorfor svinger elprisen fra time til time og fra sted til sted? Hvordan lægger man elkabler på havbunden? Hvorfor er kontrolrums-ingeniører særligt spændte under VM? Kort sagt: Det er elsystemets ’how stuff works’. Nysgerrige mennesker med interesse for videnskab og energi, vil aldrig se en stikkontakt i samme lys igen.Om forfatteren: Christian Dahl Winther (cand.oecon, ph.d.) har arbejdet med energi i en årrække, og hans passion for elsystemet giver bogen drivkraft og trækker læseren med. Bogen er særligt relevant netop nu, hvor den grønne omstilling er på alles læber, men hvor få kender til den bagvedliggende sektor.
