本章分析了能源民主是如何通过过去和现在的能源实践来构建的。我们这样做的荷兰自治市，Noordoostpolder，那里的居民成功地抵制了核电厂和页岩气的提取，今天的工作，对当地的可再生能源过渡的案例研究。我们认为，能源的做法可以是变革性的，他们调解和产生新的规范和能源生产的做法，走到一起，从下而上的能源民主建设。我们认为，当代可再生能源的做法植根于当地的能源历史，而不是在可持续性的意识形态考虑。正是通过这些能源做法，“可持续”和“地方所有权”成为能源民主和新能源未来想象的关键要素。经济可行性、实现普遍获得能源的各种选择、与可持续生活方式保持一致、技术创新和维持舒适生活方式的可能性，都是在讨论和实践中在北境圩田建设能源民主的重要考虑因素。
This chapter analyses how energy democracy is constructed through past and present energy practices. We do so by way of a case study of a Dutch municipality, the Noordoostpolder, where residents successfully resisted a nuclear power plant and the extraction of shale gas and today work towards a local transition to renewable energy. We argue that energy practices can be transformative and that they mediate and produce new norms and practices of energy production that come together in the construction of energy democracy from below. We argue that contemporary renewable energy practices are rooted in local energy histories, rather than in ideological considerations about sustainability. It is through these energy practices that “sustainable” and “local ownership” are rendered key elements of energy democracy and imaginations of new energy futures. Economic viability, options for creating universal access, alignment with sustainable lifestyles, technological innovations and possibilities for maintaining a comfortable lifestyle are all important considerations in the construction of energy democracy in the Noordoostpolder, discursively and in practice.
