Fair shares or smart savings? Exploring business models, justice and efficiency trade-offs in Portuguese energy communities
Energy communities are increasingly playing an important role in citizen engagement during energy transitions. However, the functional benefits for participants are heavily reliant on how energy and profits are shared, which are dictated by regulations. While optimizing trade-offs can prove significant in making energy community projects viable, related techno-regulatory innovations on energy-sharing mechanisms still require in-depth analysis. A …
Implicit negotiations in niche-regime interactions
State-controlled resources are scarce but crucial for niche support and regime reproduction. Thus, both niche and regime actors are continuously seeking to influence actors holding state power to secure favorable policies and resource allocations. To further the knowledge of this process, this article presents a conceptual framework that elucidates how policies are implicitly negotiated between actors at the niche and regime levels. Using data fr…
Accountability implications for intermediaries in upscaling
With the increasing diffusion of solar energy, its conditioning by intermediaries merits attention. Depending on the accountability relations between stakeholders, intermediaries can influence the speed of diffusion. We examine these aspects in the intensifying solar rollout in Portugal, a country with high energy prices, relatively low wages, and ambitious climate mitigation plans. Competitive modular photovoltaic costs and enabling energy commu…
Gendered sociotechnical imaginaries
Solar energy advocates increasingly draw attention to solar PV technologies as a vehicle for achieving greater local autonomy, inclusivity, and democracy. A future energy system may take many forms, but with the current system being male-dominated, and gender being a central factor in shaping societal values, we argue that ideas derived from different forms of masculine value systems are likely to be reproduced in the solar PV rollout. Thus, it i…
