Abstract
Many people in extreme poverty do not have access to electricity. We know the transformational effects that clean affordable energy can have and want people to be able to harness that. So, together with Kuungana Advisory, we investigated the energy access needs and challenges of people living in extreme poverty. We looked at the potential of different business models and market interventions (market mechanisms) to improve communities energy access. Here, you’ll find a series of resources produced as part of this research. The study has been funded by UK aid from the British people via the Transforming Energy Access (TEA) platform; however, the views expressed do not necessarily reflect the UK government’s official policies.
