About this book
The book also explores how patterns and structures of energy poverty have changed over time, as evidenced by some of the common measures used to describe the condition. In part, this means investigating the makeup of energy poor demographics across various social and spatial cleavages. More broadly, it also argues that energy sector reconfigurations are bothreflected in and shaped by various domains of social and political organization, especially in terms of creating poverty-relevant outcomes.

Reviews
“Energy poverty is a pain and a burden for about 1 billion humans. What are the policies tackling the issue? What help is available for Europeans made prisoners by their energy poverty? This book provides a solid and illuminating reference research contribution.” (Professor Jean-Michel Glachant, Robert Schuman Chair, Director of the Florence School of Regulation and Director of Loyola de Palacio Energy Policy Programme)
