This module introduces students to the energy system in the US and the energy justice movement that has sprung from a history of unequal coverage and a desire to shift from an energy system based on fossil fuels to one of renewable energy sources without economically or geographically isolating marginalized populations. The module includes three parts: an introduction to energy justice, an overview of the American energy system, and perspectives on energy justice.
