Four pathways for energy citizenship initiatives to contribute to a more democratic European energy system
The European Green Deal aims to put citizens at the heart of the European energy transition. Yet, their participation often falls short in terms of political involvement and self-governance. In contrast, the imaginary of energy democracy envisions democratising the energy system by involving citizens as political actors and assigns a key role to collectively organised energy citizenship initiatives in achieving this goal. However, it remains elus…
Crossing multiple solar energy gaps
Building-integrated photovoltaics are a promising technology to enhance renewable energy production in the built environment while improving the aesthetics of buildings at the same time. Several challenges hinder this technology's uptake, such as information asymmetry and limited value chain coordination. Prior work demonstrates that the support of intermediaries can play a crucial role in coping with these challenges, but this aspect has not yet…
Understandings and applications of rural community resilience amongst Scottish stakeholders
This paper seeks to examine understandings and applications of rural community resilience. Scottish policy has shifted toward neoliberalism and community empowerment, with communities encouraged to play a proactive role in enhancing their own resilience. We argue that it is important to understand the perspectives of multiple stakeholders to identify what practical factors they believe enhance community resilience and to provide a greater underst…
Translating community resilience theory into practice
Despite the availability of important theoretical insights that could enhance the resilience of rural communities to complex challenges, there is a paucity of guidance on how to apply these insights in practice. This article therefore presents and assesses a deliberative research process using the Delphi technique to elicit expert knowledge from 22 academics, community practitioners and policymakers working in roles related to community resilienc…
Can community interventions change resilience? Fostering perceptions of individual and community resilience in rural places
Governments move away from their roles as providers and take on roles as facilitators and enablers. Such transformations provide opportunities for individuals to play an active role in improving the resilience of their communities. However, the effects of such transformations may not be experienced by all communities equally. In the light of the emerging enabling state, which entails a more proactive type of community, this article examines wheth…
Do community empowerment and enabling state policies work in practice? Insights from a community development intervention in rural Scotland
Community energy
The decarbonisation of energy systems is leading to a reconfiguration of the geographies of energy. One example is the emergence of community energy, which has become a popular object of study for geographers. Although widely acknowledged to be a contested, capacious, and flexible term, “community energy” is commonly presented as singular, bounded, and localised. In this paper, we challenge this conception of community energy by considering evide…
Contributing to a Vibrant Countryside? The Impact of Side Activities on Rural Development
This paper focuses on the side activities of non‐farmers in rural areas in the N etherlands and more specifically on their impact on rural development. Empirical evidence from 36 D utch municipalities on three key aspects was examined: economy, social and physical environment. The findings indicate that although side activities do not have a large direct impact on the local economy and employment, their contribution in terms of local collaboratio…
Side Activities of Non-Farmers in Rural Areas in the Netherlands
In many rural areas, not only in The Netherlands but also elsewhere in Europe, has been observed a variety of employment opportunities for rural populations, following the decline in traditional agricultural employment. This contributes to the fact that the countryside is changing and rural areas can be viewed as new spaces of work. As a result, rural economy is no longer dominated by agricultural activities, but by activities such as small scale…
