| Summary: | This brief examines planning for
access to electricity. That electricity for all campaigns
around the globe often fall short of their targets is partly
a failure of planning. In the area of generation and
transmission, technical changes could improve the handling
of key constraints, such as fuel availability, funding, and
the rate of building. Planning for distribution networks
could be improved by gathering data on end-use demand and
deploying geospatial tools. Most important of all, the
entire planning process from generation to distribution must
be better coordinated if access plans are to be successful. |
