This is on my reading list - its not about energy but it is about big institutions and systems. [This review](https://www.nehrlich.com/blog/2024/05/12/the-unaccountability-machine-by-dan-davies/) gives you a flavour of the theme. It sent me off down a rabbit hole to look at the viable systems model of Stafford Beer. I’d love an excuse to read the book. Dan Davies [blogs here](https://backofmind.substack.com/).
