For the Few, Not the Many: Tracing the Residualist and Compensatory Nature of British Energy Support

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 529-547, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Drawing on extensive documentary analysis, this article traces the evolution of British energy policy support since World War II. It analyses shifts in policy design through two interpretive lenses: eligibility (residualist vs. universalist) and function (compensatory vs. preventive).
