A jaw dropping, rich, and wondrously comprehensive treatment of the topic of energy democracy. A refreshing reminder than energy decisions, policies, and pathways have as much to do with politics and systems of political deliberation as they do hardware, infrastructure, or tariffs. For acts of energy consumption, investment or self-generation can be political statements alongside transactions in the marketplace or preferences for some technical criterion. This book offers a refreshing, urgent reminder of what is at stake-it is at once a sober diagnosis, a creative piece of scholarship, and a call for action. Benjamin K. Sovacool, Professor of Energy Policy, University of Sussex This Handbook considers energy democracy as both a social movement and a terminological composition or way into important conversations about how technological innovation, new economic and political structures, and adaptive communication practices are all required to transform our broken relationship with the planet. Incredibly timely given recent events from Texas to India to around the globe! Stephen P. Depoe, Professor and Head, Department of Communication, University of Cincinnati Smart, comprehensive, and internationally authored, Routledge Handbook of Energy Democracy is an essential reference for scholars and climate activists alike in understanding the sociotechnical complexities of the energy transition now occurring and the urgent choices the climate crisis is demanding of us. Robert Cox, Professor Emeritus, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill A groundbreaking and highly recommended intervention that challenges taken-for-granted assumptions that energy transition necessarily delivers more sustainable futures. Contributors interrogate up-and-downstream aspects of energy assemblages, exploring new technologies and articulating participatory alternatives in the context of resource constraints and climate crisis. This collection is a must for exploring just transition. Majia H. Nadesan, Professor of Communication, Arizona State University The intersection of energy, environmental, and security concerns creates urgent problems requiring collaborative solutions. This exciting volume provides a rich and ambitious overview of democratic concepts and practices that can empower scholars and activists in transforming the disastrous trends currently created by technocratic, neo-colonial, and corporate-capitalist control of energy systems. Bryan C. Taylor, Professor of Communication, University of Colorado Boulder
