4.9/5 (26058 ratings)

Description:The ability for households to access and use energy for heating, lighting, refrigeration, communication and much else, is now widely recognised as crucial for human development and well-being. Yet many people across the globe suffer from energy poverty, a condition in which they are unable to attain the energy services required to meet their basic needs.This book provides novel and critical perspectives on the underlying causes and drivers of this problem. Drawing together original research conducted by leading experts and early career researchers, the authors offer fresh and innovative insights into the hitherto underexplored ways that geographical contingencies such as cultural norms, environmental conditions and household needs combine to shape vulnerability to energy poverty. By featuring case studies from a wide-range of countries, the book provides a globally-integrated approach to the study of a topic that has previously been divided between the 'developed' and 'developing' worlds, thereby revealing both the shared and the context-specific causes of energy poverty and the diverse ways that it manifests across the globe.Conveying policy-relevant insights that can inform decision-making on how energy poverty can be alleviated, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of energy consumption, energy justice, and socio-technical transitions, as well as policy-makers and practitioners who wish to find out more about this complex issue.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
