Exploring the Possibility of Energy Justice in Italy

by Luigi Maria Pepe

This research aims to look at energy justice taking an interdisciplinary approach for trying to address the problems and questions that arise from the Italian energy transition. While Italian energy policy and law have never been particularly constructive in terms of long-term policies, this historical moment presents an opportunity to rewrite its objectives and identify how the energy transition can be a just transition. Italy can pursue change in this regard through the energy justice metric which must be used in theory but also in practice to identify weaknesses and propose solutions within a legal system. Energy Justice must be the driving force behind a just transition for Italy and the entire society.
