William Kingston
Review Essay
In 2017, William Kingston reviewed the Hannon report from the University of Strathclyde1 on British attempts to capture ocean wave energy (Prometheus 35, 2, pp.145–58). The report is a study of failed innovation, as Kingston emphasizes in his review essay. Five years on, he is more optimis- tic about the prospects for new approaches towards economic exploitation of an inexhaustible source of clean energy.
