Repoliticising users in energy transitions
Energy studies as a field is, due to its strong grounding in engineering and economics, overall dominated by reductive ideas around the role of people in energy systems. In particular, the diversity and agency of local level energy users is commonly overlooked and poorly understood, with consequences for energy transition policy and practice. This conceptual review brings together critiques of simplistic and idealised portrayals of energy users, …
Citizen or consumer? Reconsidering energy citizenship
The transition to more sustainable energy systems has set about redefining the social roles and responsibilities of citizens. Implicit in this are expectations around participation, though the precise contours of what this might mean remain open. Debates around the energy transition have been skewed towards a normative construct of what it means to be a ‘good citizen’, the parameters for which are shaped by predetermined visions of statist and/or…
Beyond Forecasting
Energy transition debates have been characterized by a strong emphasis on the technical implications of shifting away from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, with little consideration of social contexts. This is now changing, with a growing emphasis on reconfiguring the social aspects of energy, particularly in terms of introducing more democratic processes into behavior change and energy practice engagements. This article situates itself …
