I don't know that this text does much to inform thinking on COVID-19, except to say that this article provides further evidence that definitions of energy literacy do not include emergency preparedness or planning for extra-ordinary circumstances. Nor does include information about energy assistance or policy -- akin to van den Broek's idea of "indirect energy use" -- or really anything outside the household. Looking back on this it makes me think how woefully unprepared we were for this pandemic, conceptually as much as materially.
