This paper responds to calls for the emerging literature on gender and electricity access to integrate insights from the Gender Studies literature and to better explain <em>why</em>, not just <em>how</em>, electricity access impacts gender in different ways in different contexts. It achieves this by developing a novel, performative theoretical framework, which combines and extends insights from Gender Studies on the performative, intersectional and power-laden nature of gender, and insights from Social Practice Theory on how electricity access becomes meaningful through its intersection with the performance of everyday practices. This theoretical framework is refined through an in-depth empirical analysis of the gendered impacts of electricity access in patriarchal societies in rural Guatemala and matrilineal societies in rural Colombia. The paper also develops a novel methodology, including an 8-step approach for applying the theoretical framework in practice. It concludes by articulating how these contributions can facilitate more targeted policy interventions with greater potential for positive impacts on gender equality in specific contexts.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48384,"journal":{"name":"Energy Research & Social Science","volume":"126 ","pages":"Article 104109"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144071467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While demand-side electricity blackouts are linked to the social and temporal dynamics of electricity use, debates on electricity provision in Cape Town's informal settlements have largely focused on the supply-side dynamics of grid extension and off-grid solutions. To understand the temporal dynamics of electricity use, I focus on cyclical and episodic rhythms of electricity practices and the challenges emerging from rhythm synchronicity. The paper draws on an ethnographic study in Witsand, which involved interviews with residents and community leaders and participant and non-participant observations. Findings reveal variations in the rhythms of electricity practices between formal, informal and backyard houses within Witsand.

Given this backdrop, this study explores how households' perceptions about the benefits influence adoption of solar energy by the marginalized communities in rural context. The paper is based on the experiences and insights from two selected blocks of West Bengal, India. In addition to the primary survey of 153 sample households, including both beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries, the paper also uses data and information gathered through personal interviews and focus group discussions. Using principal component analysis, the paper finds that knowledge and awareness, ease of operation and maintenance, performance, and economic benefits influence households' willingness to adopt solar lights significantly. These factors together contribute to 70.68 % of the variance in households' willingness in this regard. Besides, trusts among different stakeholders also raise households' willingness to adopt such technologies. Thus, emphasis should be given on promoting awareness of renewable energy technologies and building trust and confidence among different stakeholders, particularly in rural areas, through social mobilization, capacity building programs, and community outreach.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48384,"journal":{"name":"Energy Research & Social Science","volume":"126 ","pages":"Article 104129"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144069131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on the primary household surveys in two coal mining regions of Chatra district (Jharkhand state) and Jharsuguda district (Odisha state) in India, this work maps the geographic footprint of coal mining using various socio-economic indicators in a local context. Further, a comparative analysis of these two coal mining regions has examined the regional variations in coal dependency. The findings indicate that coal dependency is predominantly tied to livelihoods and is concentrated primarily within a 5-kilometre radius of coal mines, diminishing substantially beyond this range. The coal dependency is also higher for primary cooking fuel, higher income levels, and corporate social responsibility activities in this range. This study exposes the vulnerability of the coal mining region during the closure of coal mines by highlighting the low skill levels, low landholding patterns and low coverage of social security schemes like ration cards. It is demonstrated that notable regional disparities exist among coal mining regions regarding reliance on coal for livelihoods, cooking fuel, skill training, social security coverage and other indicators. These insights underscore the necessity of a bottom-up approach to guide a just energy transition, with a focus on adapting strategies to local contexts.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48384,"journal":{"name":"Energy Research & Social Science","volume":"126 ","pages":"Article 104136"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144069134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We highlight the crucial role of specific building characteristics (e.g. flats, insulated solid walls) and tenancy arrangements (e.g. social and private renting) in exacerbating overheating risks, especially when vulnerable groups reside in them. Particularly, households with low incomes, older or retired members and younger individuals are more likely to report the risk of overheating.

The three Waves are analyzed through a multi-method literature review, and we specifically analyze the First Wave through key historical sources and contextual analysis. We argue that the hydrogen economy emerged in the 1970s as a techno-utopian narrative within the scientific community, where hydrogen was envisioned as the ultimate energy carrier, driven by nuclear energy. Characteristics of the techno-utopian narrative include utopian terminology, dystopian future images, and neglect of negative side effects. During this period, the hydrogen economy did not develop beyond the conceptual phase. The Second Wave, starting in the mid-1990s, witnessed a resurgence of interest in hydrogen, particularly in the mobility sector. Governmental support and media portrayal fueled public enthusiasm, but practical challenges and misleading information resulted in disillusionment with the hydrogen economy ideal by the late 2000s. Today, in the Third Wave, hydrogen is repositioned as an energy vector for a more sustainable future, primarily as a carrier of (variable) renewable energy sources. Lessons from earlier Waves emphasize the importance of affordable renewable energy for hydrogen production, realistic objectives, a developed hydrogen infrastructure, and cross-sector collaboration. By addressing these elements, the Third Wave can avoid past pitfalls and advance hydrogen’s role in a sustainable energy future.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48384,"journal":{"name":"Energy Research & Social Science","volume":"126 ","pages":"Article 104084"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2025-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143948365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
