Experts from around the world present case studies from different countries and discuss efforts were needed for achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The authors look into the issue of environment vs. economics and discuss the question of whether the energy transition goal can conflict with other development goals such as decent work and economic growth. Furthermore, innovation in energy transition is introduced, both in technology and citizens? engagement. The book presents the latest developments on energy access and transition to sustainability throughout the overall value chain: from basic research in universities to documentation of lessons learned in the field. The empirical evidence presented makes this book appealing to scholars in the field of energy sustainability as well as to policy-makers and energy service companies. 410 0$aEconomics and Finance Series 517 $aSustainable Energy Access for Communities 606 $aEnvironmental economics$2bicssc 606 $aEconomic growth$2bicssc 606 $aEnergy technology & engineering$2bicssc 606 $aDevelopment studies$2bicssc 606 $aEcological science, the Biosphere$2bicssc 606 $aPolitical economy$2bicssc 610 $aEnergy access in emerging cities 610 $aSustainable development goals 610 $aSDG 610 $aEnergy innovation 610 $aPoverty alleviation 610 $aEnvironment vs. economics 610 $aSustainable energy systems 610 $aClimate justice 610 $aSocial justice 610 $aLPG subsidies 610 $aCarbon taxes on energy price 610 $aDemocratization 610 $aSustainable energy governance 610 $aAfrican case studies 615 7$aEnvironmental economics 615 7$aEconomic growth 615 7$aEnergy technology & engineering 615 7$aDevelopment studies 615 7$aEcological science, the Biosphere 615 7$aPolitical economy 686 $aBUS067000$aBUS068000$aBUS069000$aBUS070040$aSCI020000$aSOC042000$2bisacsh 700 $aFall$b Aminata$01239434 701 $aHaas$b Reinhard$01239435 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910567789103321 996 $aSustainable Energy Access for Communities$92875838 997 $aUNINA
