“…In rural areas, energy is mostly needed for cooking, lighting and heating by households, for tilling, irrigating, harvesting and processing by the agriculture, for mechanical tools by the rural industry [7]. At the same time, energy is an output of the agriculture sector.…”

“…The first such publications were as early as the 1960s, for instance the publication of J. McHale [10], but the actual beginning of interest in this subject dates back to the late 1970s [11][12][13]. It is worth adding that among about 130,000 RES publications found in the ScienceDirect database, published between 2001-2020, there are many studies concerning only developing or newly industrialised countries [14][15][16][17]. There are also many studies on the external costs of energy technologies in relation to the negative effects associated with electricity production at all stages of the technical process (the construction and the decommissioning of power stations, extraction and transport of energy resources, emission of pollutants) [18][19][20][21][22].…”

Appropriate management of energy sources is one of the basic undertakings in the energy sector. Climate policy changes and the development of technologies enabling the acquisition of energy in a way to reduce the negative impact on the natural environment lead to diversity in the structure of the energy sources being used. Therefore, it is important to assess the impact of these changes on the development of energy sectors by particular countries. The article contains the analysis of various energy sources utilization by European Union (EU) countries and the assessment of the energy production sector potential, and the development of this potential in relation to changes in the energy sources structure. For this purpose, a multidimensional comparative analysis was used. The data for the analysis are derived from the Eurostat database for the years 2017 and 2019 for 28 EU countries and they concern the use of energy sources such as combustible fuels, coal and manufactured gases, natural gas, oil and petroleum products (excluding biofuel portion), hydro/hydropower, wind power, solar photovoltaic, nuclear fuels and other fuels n.e.c. As a result of the research, it was proved that in most EU countries the changes introduced in the structure of the use of various energy sources, according to EU climate policy, have a positive impact on the development of particular energy sectors.

“…Modern fuels such as LPG, while widespread in the MENA today, are a recent development; during the 1960s and 1970s, much of the rural populations of North Africa and the Levant relied almost exclusively on firewood, biomass and animal power. Since then, with the increasing availability of liquid fuels such as kerosene, diesel or residual fuel oil at relatively low cost, their use as a complement to traditional biomass has rapidly spread for heating, lighting and cooking, and as fuel for small power generating units (Akash and Mohsen, ; Al‐Mohamad, ; Kabarati, , p. 9; Karaki et al ., ).…”

Energy access remains one of the forgotten millennium development goals, despite being a key ingredient to sustained and equitable socio‐economic growth and development. This article looks at the energy poverty nexus in the Middle East and North Africa, a region frequently overlooked in the study of energy access owing to its significant hydrocarbon wealth, and the impact energy poverty has made on parts of the region. A closer look reveals the puzzling picture of a region divided between energy abundant states and states with continuingly high rates of lacking access to electricity and secure supply of modern fuels. The existence of some of the worst cases of energy poverty in the MENA in net exporters of oil and gas such as Yemen and Egypt further demonstrates that energy poverty is effectively a domestic distributive problem, rather than one caused by a country's lacking natural resources. The article explores the main causal factors and suggests short‐ and long‐term policy remedies.
