This volume analyses the energy industry for the following geographical units: America - divided into North America (Canada + USA) and  Central and South America -, the Middle East and South Asia, East Asia and Oceania. The key energy-economic indicators for each region and country and their development, are illustrated in numerous graphs and energy flow diagrams. Based on this analysis, the author recommends a distribution of emission reductions necessary to limit climate change (for the 2°C and 1.5°C climate goals, with a perspective up to 2050).The continents covered in this volume collectively account for 77% of emissions. Europe + Eurasia and Africa will be addressed in volume I.

Professor emeritus Valentin Crastan, after practical and managerial roles in energy technology companies, was appointed as a professor of energy systems and control engineering at the Bern University of Applied Sciences, in Biel. Additionally, he served for nine years as the dean of the Department of Electrical and Communication Engineering.
