Abstract

Economics and energy justice is an underexplored area of research. Too often there is a divergence in what economics wants for society. There has previously been too much focus on economic growth, and it is clear that nowadays this aim results in greater societal inequality. For the energy sector this makes the concept of energy justice very relevant. A key influential factor here was the 2007–2009 economic crisis that caused a recalibration of the discipline that continues until today. Economics plays a vital role in delivering the energy transition and is of high value in ensuring the necessity of ensuring energy justice becomes part of energy economic decision-making processes.
