This dimension groups energy milestones by the broader period of the energy transition they belong to. Wikipedia notes that "a previous energy transition perhaps took place during the Industrial Revolution from 1760 onwards, from wood and other biomass to coal, followed by oil and later natural gas." Browsing by period lets a visitor compare milestones from the same broad transition.
