OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This talk explores energy justice in Belgium, particularly in the Walloon region, through an analysis of solar PV policy and its impact on energy poverty among low-income households. Integrating principles of distributional, recognition, and procedural justice, the study seeks to design equitable public policies that ensure fair access to photovoltaic energy. By reviewing global PV policies and their outcomes in countries like Australia, China, the United States, and Italy, the research provides a comparative framework to understand how different approaches have influenced renewable energy adoption and addressed socio-economic disparities. This research highlights the multidimensional nature of energy poverty and the complexities within Belgium’s decentralized governance.
