São Tomé and Príncipe - Beyond Connections : Energy Access Diagnostic Report Based on the Multi-Tier Framework

São Tomé and Príncipe (STP) is one of the smallest economies in Africa, a lower-middle-income, developing small-island state with a fragile economy, and it is therefore highly vulnerable to exogenous shocks. The World Bank, with support from the en...
