Throughout the world, energy systems are transforming to more efficient, renewable-based configurations constituting a large-scale socio-technical transition. This energy system change has the potential to strengthen societal resilience in multiple ways. Despite this potential, depending on how the renewable energy transition progresses, energy system change could perpetuate, rather than reduce, vulnerabilities, societal inequality and the unequal distribution of risks and benefits associated with energy. Also depending on how resilience is framed, in terms of scale and time-frame, different types of energy system changes with variable societal impact could be prioritized and justified by the resilience imperative. Given this complexity, the novel concept of energy democracy provides a valuable lens to assess societal resilience and guide energy system changes toward contributing to reducing, rather than perpetuating, vulnerabilities and inequalities associated with current fossil-fuel based energy systems. By explicitly connecting energy policy with social and political outcomes, energy democracy re-articulates energy systems as distributed public works that distribute social benefits among local communities. The energy democracy concept extends the social demands of energy systems beyond access, reliability and affordability to include issues of social justice and jobs as well as a broad suite of environmental, health and economic benefits. By explicitly connecting societal issues that are generally dealt with independently, energy democracy framing provides a social, political and cultural framework to assess societal resilience during energy system transformation. The aims of this chapter are (1) to explore the potential for enhancing societal resilience during the renewable energy transition, (2) to propose an energy democracy approach to assess societal resilience and guide change as energy systems shift away from predominantly centralized fossil-fuel based systems toward more distributed, decentralized and heterogeneous renewable-based systems, and (3) to review policies that embrace an energy democracy approach.

The rise of resilience as a construct for improving critical infrastructure systems, and homeland security more broadly, has led to an array of US government attempts to assess and document the status of key assets, individual communities, ports and larger geographic regions, as well as entire infrastructure sectors. Unfortunately, after producing detailed reports, government agencies often lack the time or resources to analyze and integrate the growing volume of systems data these efforts produce. The lack of common standards, definitions and metrics among such assessments further complicates efforts to integrate the findings of these fragmented, overlapping and occasionally duplicative initiatives. This chapter presents an inductive–deductive content analysis methodology well suited for unearthing recurring resilience gaps and systemic barriers to their removal that too often remain buried in the rich fields of existing government studies. After providing an overview of this qualitative cross-case analysis design, this chapter illustrates the utility and challenges of such an approach by recounting a recent application: a comprehensive study of the Department of Homeland Security’s Regional Resiliency Assessment Program, an interagency assessment of critical infrastructure for a designated geographic region. The chapter concludes by encouraging wider use of extant resiliency data and cataloguing some of the many government infrastructure assessments that could be targeted for future research using this methodology.

From the point of view of energy system operators, cyberattacks, that is, information technology (IT)-security incidents, comprise an additional source for reduced functionality or system failure. In this capability cyberattacks ‘compete’ with unintentional disturbances like weather, natural disasters and accidental disruptions. Information technology-security experts, developing countermeasures to cyberattacks, primarily are concerned with intelligent, complex, malicious attacks that must be defended against using dedicated countermeasures and security processes. In order to prevent degraded function of energy systems through intentional attacks, for example, effecting a blackout or instabilities, functional resilience of the energy system is mandatory.
