Justice Under the Sun: Evaluating Procedural Justice in Large‐Scale Solar Park Development

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The development of large‐scale solar sites (LSS) is expanding to address climate change and profitability challenges in renewable energy. This article evaluates whether such projects can meet procedural justice standards under optimal conditions, examining a case study in southern Sweden. Despite strong institutional frameworks, well‐resourced
