Editorial: Human Rights at the Heart of Energy Justice

Abstract

Energy justice has grown significantly across all disciplines involved in energy research. Here an energy justice circle is advanced where the relationship with energy justice and human rights across the energy lifecycle is explored. It is clear that at the heart of energy justice from a practical perspective is the protection of human rights. That is what energy justice and the application of the forms of justice – procedural, distributive, restorative, recognition and cosmopolitan - that provide its basis can achieve.
