The energy transition is a central objective of climate policies. However, if it is not addressed from a social inclusion perspective, it risks amplifying existing inequalities in the economic, housing, employment, and relational conditions of individuals and households. This contribution proposes a mapping of energy poverty based on the concept of energy citizenship, articulated into three social zones: energy-vulnerable, energy-assisted, and energy- excluded groups. The analysis highlights that the energy transition cannot be approached as a purely technical or market-driven issue, and underscores the need for integrated housing, energy, and social policies aimed at democratising access to essential resources.
