AB  - The global transition towards renewable energy must be understood not just as an environmental or technological challenge, but as a multidimensional process with profound implications for human rights and social equity. Energy poverty persists as a critical concern in Europe, particularly in Portugal, where economically disadvantaged populations are disproportionately impacted by constrained access to affordable, sustainable, and clean energy resources. This communication examines the interconnections between renewable energy, community empowerment, and the human rights framework, with particular emphasis on the contributions of social work to fostering inclusive and participatory approaches. The "100 Villages" project exemplifies the efficacy of renewable energy in addressing energy poverty, generating economic savings for social institutions, and fortifying community resilience. The integration of renewable energy within the overarching agendas of social justice and sustainability signifies the recognition of access to clean energy as a fundamental human right and a prerequisite for dignified living. Additionally, it underscores the potential for social work principles, namely, participation, advocacy, and empowerment—to facilitate communities' navigation of the energy transition, thereby ensuring that no individuals or groups are marginalized or left behind.
