A 2020 article which undertakes a systematic mapping of 649 cases of resistance movements to both fossil fuel (FF) and low carbon energy (LCE) projects, providing the most comprehensive overview of such place-based energy-related mobilizations to date. It finds that (1) Place-based resistance movements are succeeding in curbing both fossil-fuel and low-carbon energy projects. Over a quarter of projects encountering social resistance have been cancelled, suspended or delayed. (2) The evidence highlights that low carbon, renewable energy and mitigation projects are as conflictive as FF projects, and that both disproportionately impact vulnerable groups such as rural communities and Indigenous peoples.

A 2019 report which looks specifically at the manufacturing sector and what policy lessons can be learned from the last decade or more: is there more that could be done to bring greater numbers of the jobs in the Scottish renewables manufacturing supply chain to Scotland? And what are the implications of this for Scottish energy and industrial policy more broadly?
