Women and Renewable Energy in a South African Community: Exploring Energy Poverty and Environmental Racism. Journal of International Women’s Studies, 19(5), 165-176.

This paper argues that the rights of women to be included in decisions about energy use
and their experiences with energy use are ignored.
Using an eco-feminist perspective this article explores
how the rhetoric of ‘renewable energy for the poor’
which bypasses women’s voices and experience in domestic uses of renewable energy
result in reverse outcomes of pro-environmental policy for the poor,
as well as, for society in general.
