This project aims to bridge the gap in knowledge regarding net-zero energy transitions and energy justice in rural India. India with its geographical, cultural and topographical diversity, remains at a critical point in progressing a net-zero energy transition that is just. A key set of geographical issues that require further research concern the ways that rural communities are implicated in this transition processes due to i) India's demographic spread in terms of social, economic and cultural institutions in various regions ii) the impact (both positive and negative) of renewable energy generation such as solar and wind energy on rural landholdings, livelihood and social beliefs and customs; and iii) the lack of coordination between stakeholders such as the local governments, the residents and the project developers. This research, using practice-based 'user-inspired and 'user useful' approaches incorporating both scientific and local/indigenous knowledge (Reed, 2008; Cowling et al., 2008) will assess the impacts of renewable energy development on rural communities and livelihoods in India and develop tools, using local knowledge for engaging communities, to achieve socially-just renewable energy transitions.

该项目旨在弥合印度农村地区有关净零能源转型和能源正义的知识差距。印度具有地理、文化和地形的多样性，在实现公正的净零能源转型方面仍处于关键时刻。需要进一步研究的一组关键地理问题涉及农村社区参与这一转型过程的方式，因为 i) 印度在各个地区的社会、经济和文化机构方面的人口分布 ii) 影响（积极和消极） ）可再生能源发电，例如太阳能和风能对农村土地所有权、生计和社会信仰和习俗的影响； iii) 当地政府、居民和项目开发商等利益相关者之间缺乏协调。这项研究采用基于实践的“用户启发”和“用户有用”方法，结合科学和当地/本土知识（Reed，2008；Cowling 等，2008），将评估可再生能源发展对农村社区和生计的影响在印度开发工具，利用当地知识吸引社区参与，以实现社会公正的可再生能源转型。
