Client: N/A
Location: South Africa
Outcome: This paper details and contrasts the patterns of household energy consumption from three sample groups across unelectrified areas in the provinces of KwaZulu-Natal, North West and the Eastern Cape. Understanding patterns of household energy consumption and expenditure, as well as the energy burden of rural households, can be used to shape and inform energy interventions within these regions.
