Abstract: As China's rural revitalization strategy continues to advance, safeguarding energy for rural life should receive renewed legal attention. Examining China's current legal norms for safeguarding energy for rural life, it is found that there are many problems, such as incomplete construction of the legal system, inaccurate knowledge of safeguarding energy for rural life, and mixed provisions of the legal realization system. From the perspective of holism, exploring the logic of the rule of law is the basis for improving the legal norms. The legal realization of rural energy security should be based on the theoretical kernel of energy justice; take the right to rural energy as the logical starting point for the formulation of legal norms, realize the current stage of cooperation and compromise with the right to the environment, and prioritize the application of the rural typology on the basis of differentiation; adhere to the model of priority of the theory of legislation during the process of normative improvement, and take the moderated method of legislative operation. The specific construction program needs to be implemented at the level of implementation of the principle of energy justice as a whole and the formulation of specific rules.
