Key Messages

• Categorization allows National Electrification Approaches (NEA) to be presented and compared systematically
  
• NEAs combine technologies, delivery models, regulation, financial and other interventions – most effective approaches include actions in all these areas
• There is no one ideal approach to electrification. Successful NEA elements are well alighted with each otehr and national context
• NEA should change over time as levels of electrification increase
  
• Major advances in electrification can be achieved in just a few years given commitment from policy makers.
