4. 23. Energy poverty and the elderly-care: Exploring energy poverty in the elderly-care through case studies with social welfare organizations in Taiwan

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

   Author : Tzu Ling Kuo; [2020]
   Keywords : Science General;

   Abstract : The topic of energy poverty has recently gained prominence amongst researchers and academia in Taiwan within the context of rising energy prices and low emission energy transitions.
