| Summary: | This project had the following
objectives: to undertake a detailed assessment for four
countries of the steps taken to reform the energy sector and
their impact (or not) on various groups of poor households;
to identify patterns of energy use by poor households in
various situations; to identify patterns of supply of energy
to poor households; and to identify links between the supply
and the use of energy by poor households, which are capable
of being directly impacted by sector reform. Such links
include: the actual use of various sources of energy (e.g.
electricity); the form in which the source is used (e.g.
battery or grid connection); its associated cost (capital
costs and fuel costs); and the nature of the delivery form
(state utility or local off-grid company, retailer of
batteries or of LPG). The design of a template for future
assessment of the impact of sector reform on the poor in
other countries. Through the use of local consultants,
wherever possible, the engagement in capacity building for
economic and policy analysis of the energy sector. |
