I am aware of the contributions e.g. of Cecelski, Clancy and Skutch or Pachauri and Rao for developing countries. Are there any such works for the European context? Also ints to texts which adress gender among other issues are welcome.
I am just trying to guess actual meaning of your question, please add more other words.
Dear Sushanta Kumar Bhowmik,
in other words: I look for scientific work that reveals how women and man are differently affected by energy poverty (high energy cost burden, difficulty to heat the home, electricity cut offs etc.) in a developed world context.
Best, Katrin

The following publications on Women, Energy and Water in the Himalayas encapsulate the experiences and lessons from a project on 'Incorporating the Needs and Roles of Women in Water and Energy Management in Rural Areas in South Asia'. The UNEP and ICIMOD project was supported by the Swedish International Development Co-operation Agency (SIDA) and carried out by local partners in selected sites in Bhutan, India, and Nepal.
