Abstract: This study aims to analyze the implications of the financial energy literacy (FEL) with sustainability as interdisciplinary concepts. The holistic approach of sustainability of financial energy literacy (SFEL) is critical in an environment where energy costs are rising and environmental sustainability is becoming increasingly urgent. The method employed is the meta-analytical and meta-cognitive analysis based on a conceptual, theoretical and empirical literature review published in the last five years. It is concluded that financial energy literacy is a crucial element for achieving sustainable development goals, as it empowers individuals to make informed decisions that benefit both their financial well-being and the environment of individuals, families, organizations and communities.
