Access to Energy

Access to energy refers to the availability of reliable and affordable sources of power, such as electricity and fuel, needed for everyday life and economic activities. It is essential for lighting, heating, cooking, transportation, and powering industries. When people lack access, it can hinder development, health, education, and productivity. Ensuring universal access means providing communities and individuals with the energy they need to improve their quality of life, support sustainable growth, and reduce inequalities. Achieving this involves expanding infrastructure, using efficient technology, and making energy affordable and environmentally sustainable.
