Synopsis: This book brings together a comprehensive overview of gender and energy to provide an invaluable resource for researchers and practitioners. It addresses how energy access at the individual/household/community level is gendered in terms of decision making and where and how benefits accrue. At the institutional level it examines the role women play in the sector and the barriers they have to overcome to participate. At the policy level experiences with mainstreaming gender into energy policy are discussed. The book provides examples from both the Global South and the Global North and is set in the context of the energy transition. The book is a timely publication that highlights the global energy initiatives of SEforAll, the SDGs and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change.
