Gender and Energy Transition – Audio Abstract
The article Exploring the nexus of gender and energy transitions: A systematic literature review recently published in Energy Research & Social Science analyzes the link between gender issues and energy transitions, highlighting the need for more inclusive and targeted strategies.
The study, conducted for CNR-IRPPS by Marco Cellini, Cloe Mirenda, Lucio Pisacane, Serena Tagliacozzo, together with Sabine Loos and Clemens Striebing (Fraunhofer IAO), was developed within the European project gEneSys Transforming Gendered Interrelations of Power and Inequalities in Transition Pathways to Sustainable Energy Systems.
The research, based on a systematic literature review (SLR) of 152 scientific publications, identifies seven key dimensions linking gender to energy transitions and offers a structured overview of existing knowledge while identifying research gaps, providing essential insights for future studies.
