  • Offshore Oil and Gas Development in the Canadian and Russian Arctic

    Open AccessOlga Koubrak, Luiza Brodt et al.ARTICLEArctic review on law and politics2026

    The environmental and social challenges, along with the legal and technical realities, of offshore oil and gas development in the Canadian and Russian Arctic are multifaceted. Both nations possess significant hydrocarbon reserves in the Arctic, which are becoming more and more important as more accessible resources are depleted. However, the harsh Arctic conditions pose significant technical challenges for exploration and extraction. Environmenta…

  • Legacies Matter

    Shardul Tiwari, Chelsea Schelly et al.ARTICLECase Studies in the Environment2023

    Using electrical energy for an increasingly wide range of energy services (including lighting, heating, cooling, food storage, communications, and transport) requires grappling with the impacts of these systems on ecologies and societies. Renewable energy can provide less ecologically damaging electrical energy, but intermittency—the fact that solar requires the sun to shine and wind requires a breeze for energy to be produced—means having to cre…

  • Towards codes of practice for navigating the academic peer review process

    Open AccessB K Sovacool, Jonn Axsen et al.ARTICLEEnergy Research & Social Science2022References: 3

    Peer review is the bedrock of modern academic research and its lasting contributions to science and society. And yet, reviewers can submit “poor” peer review reports, authors can blatantly ignore referee advice, and editors can contravene and undermine the peer review process itself. In this paper, we, the Editors of Energy Research & Social Science (ER&SS), seek to establish peer review codes of practice for the general energy and social science…

  • Left out in the cold

    Open AccessRoman Sidortsov, B K Sovacool et al.ARTICLEJournal of Environmental Studies…2015Cited by: 9

    This commentary advocates for a wider proliferation of the energy justice concept in Arctic energy research. It maintains that the concept provides a novel, human-centric approach to evaluating issues stemming from energy exploration, development, production, and use. The commentary opens with a brief survey of the human dimensions of the changing Arctic before linking them to energy activities in the region. It then proposes energy justice as a …

  • Making the Ethical and Philosophical Case for “Energy Justice”

    Benjamin R Jones, B K Sovacool et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Ethics2015Cited by: 4

    A new conceptual framework, “energy justice,” provides a more comprehensive and, po­tentially, better way to assess and resolve energy-related dilemmas. This new framework of energy justice builds on four fundamental assumptions and consists of two key principles: a prohibitive principle which states that “energy systems must be designed and constructed in such a way that they do not unduly interfere with the ability of people to acquire those ba…

  • Rethinking the Scale, Structure & Scope of U.S. Energy Institutions

    Open AccessMichael H Dworkin, Roman V Sidortsov et al.ARTICLEDaedalus2013

    This essay notes some of the key institutions created in the twentieth century for the purpose of delivering energy in North America. Those institutions are being challenged by a combination of stresses in three interconnected areas: reliability, economics, and environmental sustainability. The essay argues that these three stresses create an “energy trilemma” requiring institutional reform. We suggest that new and modified institutions can best …
