Noting that most sources of energy being developed or dreamed of as an alternative to fossil fuels take the form of electricity, Gellings (Electric Power Research Institute) surveys how it can be used in many applications that now rely on petroleum. He covers electricity's attributes, the concept of electrification, reducing carbon dioxide through expanded end-use applications of electricity, electric on-road transportation, electrifying off-road motive power, industrial processing, metals production, materials fabrication, commercial and residential buildings, enhancing energy efficiency, and demand response.
