The literature has studied various factors affecting income inequality and the influence of energy security on the economy, while knowledge is rather limited regarding the linkage between energy security and income inequality. Therefore, in addition to conventional economic and financial aspects, the energy landscape requires a deeper examination of how energy market activities affect income inequality. The contributions of the current study can be summarized as follows: First, we fill the gap in the literature by examining the influence of energy security on income inequality. Second, unlike previous works, we delve into the non-linear impact of energy security on income inequality. Third, we employ a new DPT model to find the threshold variables. In current study, the effect of energy security in four dimensions (availability, accessibility, development capability and acceptability) on income inequality in Middle Eastern countries has been investigated. To achieve this goal, threshold panel regression and data from the period 2000-2021 have been used. The results show that among the four dimensions of energy security, only the acceptability dimension has a negative and significant effect on income inequality, and other energy dimensions do not have a significant effect on income inequality. The threshold level for the Middle East countries is calculated at 42032 dollars per capita. Therefore, governments should focus more on improving the efficiency of energy use. This not only helps to reduce the income gap, but also increases energy security optimally.

Despite the importance of energy inequality issues in Iran, the depth and extent of this issue have been neglected and have not been examined. The necessity of social justice, having an advanced society, and reducing the effects of energy inequality in the economic, social, and cultural growth and development in a country, cause this issue to be investigated. The goal of this study is to identify and evaluate the factors that play an important role in energy inequality. Hence, this study investigated the impact of economic-social parameters on energy inequality by using the combined data method for 31 countries during 2009-2020. This research results show that three factors of population, energy price, and GDP have a negative and significant effect on the inequality of energy consumption. Also, variables such as government current expenditures and education have a significant and positive effect on energy consumption inequality. On the other hand, urbanism and development expenditures of the government have no noticeable relation with energy inequality
