| description |
Every year an estimated seventy percent
of Tajikistan's population suffers from severe
electricity shortages in winter. The energy sector was
affected by dramatic changes over the last few decades -
regional energy cooperation was disrupted after the break-up
of the Soviet Union, gas imports were interrupted, and the
state was unable to invest adequately in the maintenance of
the national energy infrastructure. Tajikistan has been
facing severe power shortages in winter months since the
district heating system collapsed and households as a
consequence started to use electricity for heating purposes.
This report assesses energy deprivation in Tajikistan with
an emphasis on the human dimension, paying special attention
to rural areas. It takes a broad look at household energy
security, affordability, and coping mechanisms, in order to
inform short and medium-term policies to mitigate energy
deprivation. Firstly, it analyzes energy use and spending
patterns across diverse groups of consumers, low and
middle-income, rural and urban, people who live in houses
and those who live in apartments, as the type of energy used
determines household vulnerability. Secondly, it examines
impacts of energy expenses on the household budget, and
strategies adopted to cope with energy payments. Thirdly, it
collects consumer attitudes towards potential measures to
improve energy security and affordability, such as social
assistance and support to improve energy efficiency. It
explores the conditions under which an electricity tariff
increase would gain acceptance among consumers. Fourthly and
lastly, the report simulates the quasi-fiscal impact and the
targeting performance of a series of measures that could
cushion the impact of rising energy expenditure. |
