Title
The Fight for Light: Improving Energy Access through Digital Payments
Publisher
Better Than Cash Alliance
Author
Camilo Tellez, Daniel Waldron
Published in
July 2017
Abstract
This publication highlights the role of digital payments and inclusive digital ecosystems in achieving sustainable energy for all. It examines three major barriers to expanding energy access and argues how digital payments could help to overcome them. The barriers include a) lack of cost recovery for grid extension and mini-grid projects, b) high up-front cost of energy access and c) lack of private investment as well as well-targeted subsidies for renewable projects.
