It traces the history of gas energy use in a European context to understand the reasons for its crucial nature in the region. Going back to the start of gas production in England and France at the turn of the 18th century, the book has a specific focus on Latin Europe: Portugal, Spain, France, and Italy. Topics discussed include, but are not limited to the evolution of gas technology and associations; capital, technical, and human transfer among countries; strategies carried out by gas companies to promote their activity; how gas companies adapted to changing markets, faced with the competition of electricity at the end of the 19th century, until late 20th century; and how war, especially the Second World War, affected gas supply in Latin Europe. Finally, the volume discusses the emerging use of natural gas by France and Italy after 1945, which meant a quantitative advantage compared to their neighbors in Latin Europe, Portugal and Spain, as well as a political advantage, in terms of energetic independence. The book will appeal to scholars, students, and researchers of economic history, business history, as well as technological history, interested in a better understanding of the evolution of gas into a major energy source, a role that it has kept until today. 001481064 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 25, 2023). 001481064 650_0 $$aGas industry$$zEurope$$xHistory$$y19th century. 001481064 650_0 $$aGas industry$$zEurope$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001481064 650_6 $$aGaz$$xIndustrie$$zEurope$$xHistoire$$y19e siècle. 001481064 650_6 $$aGaz$$xIndustrie$$zEurope$$xHistoire$$y20e siècle. 001481064 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001481064 7001_ $$aMatos, A.
