Praise for this book

The Poor peoples energy outlook series has already made a significant contribution to the global efforts and dialogue on the issues surrounding energy poverty. Its well-selected focus areas, including community services, have informed both policy and investment decision-making. This years effort again helps refine our understanding and the direction of our collective efforts.

Morgan Bazilian, Deputy Director, Joint Institute for Strategic Energy Analysis

Having been neglected for too long, energy access is finally where it belongs at the centre of attention of the development community. Now we need to understand better exactly how to mobilize the resources and investment needed to make substantial progress. The PPEO is a vital source of knowledge towards this cause.

Michael Franz, Project Manager, EU Energy Initiative Partnership Dialogue Facility

Since its first edition, the PPEO has become a reference publication for practitioners in the area of energy access. The new PPEO report is extremely important, for it provides very useful insights into the linkages between energy access and community services an area which has been largely overlooked by existing literature.

Dr Marlis Kees, Programme Manager, Poverty Oriented Basic Energy Services (HERA), GIZ

The Poor peoples energy outlook 2013 provides clear evidence and frameworks that would assist developing nations to move from darkness to light. It empowers poverty advocates to pursue the call for greater investment and proposes practical actions that would move nations from poverty to prosperity. Energy remains the driving factor for survival, better life and inclusive sustainable development; and should form a key area of focus in the post-2015 global agenda.

Life without energy is death. This book is a must read for all development partners, individuals, governments, and NGOs that want a better and safer world.

Dr Sam Agbo, Head of Health and HIV, Save the Children

With a focus on delivering energy for health and education, Practical Actions PPEO 2013 has once again effectively demonstrated that energy access is essential for achieving development goals. This report should not just be read by people working on energy in developing countries but by people interested in reducing poverty.

Alison Doig, Senior Advisor Climate Change and Sustainable Development, Christian Aid

The Poor peoples energy outlook 2013 is a true and realistic reflection of the current energy challenges we face to ensure everyones right to effective and modern education, health and other community services. The report has well-documented facts and provides ideas and action plans for the way forward. This global report by Practical Action is very commendable and deserves the support of all stakeholders at all levels.
