Abstract
SANCHEZ DOMINGUEZ GUILARTE, María de la Concepción. Energy Poverty and Vulnerability in México: characterization based on local energy uses. Espiral (Guadalaj.) [online]. 2024, vol.31, n.91, pp.45-78. Epub Nov 15, 2024. ISSN 1665-0565. https://doi.org/10.32870/eees.v31i91.7364.
Objective.
Describe the local energy systems in three municipalities of Jalisco to characterize the energy vulnerability condition, as well as the actors involved and the community strengthening strategies implemented.
Methodology.
Collaborative diagnoses and network discussions were carried out for a better understanding of the problem from the local reality.
Results.
The energy chain is characterized from local context, the description of the users and recipients of the services, as well as their familiar and collectives uses.
Conclusions.
The concepts of poverty and vulnerability must consider the singularities of the rural world, where domestic and productive activities often coexist, as well as collective and public users, such as municipalities. Understanding this energy chain in depth will allow generating strategies towards a fair energy transformation from the local level.
