About this book

The political profile of energy access is unprecedented. Globally, the UN Sustainable Energy for All Initiative has ensured that the issue is now recognized as central to international development dialogue. In many countries, however, poor people's energy access is yet to be given sufficient priority and fails to be acknowledged as a key enabler in improving health, education, and other community services.

As a contribution to creating a new energy narrative, the Poor People's Energy Outlook (PPEO) highlights what matters to poor people. It prioritizes their perspectives and those of practitioners working with them. PPEO 2013, the third in the series, focuses on delivering energy at community level, illustrating the difference that improved energy services and supply can make to health, education and infrastructure, including access to water, and street lighting. Poor People's Energy Outlook 2013 makes the case for energy for community services; encouraging greater investment in, and integration of, this often neglected area of energy provision.

The Poor People's Energy Outlook 2013 will be of interest to anyone seeking to understand better the interaction between energy access and community services, both energy sector professionals and development practitioners alike.
