Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the energy poverty in the world and to produce a policy for this problem. In this study, descriptive analysis method was used. In the study, the conceptual framework of energy poverty was drawn and the methods of measuring energy poverty and the causes of energy poverty were discussed. Using the findings consisting of statistical data, energy poverty in the world has been illustrated and policies that can provide a solution to this problem have been proposed. In the study, it has been observed that the energy need has increased all over the world, but there are serious inequalities in energy consumption on the basis of regions and countries. In addition, the lack of access to clean energy sources increases health problems along with poverty and leads to global pollution. It is necessary to urgently implement policy measures that take into account the specific situation of households and are shaped according to the dynamics of the countries themselves. Accordingly, household incomes should be increased, decent jobs should be provided and welfare policies should be put in place quickly to ensure that current poverty is not maintained.
