Energy:
- Key to human development but is not a normal
“product”
Slum areas:
1. Non payment culture, energy theft and crime
2. No go areas – lack of government support
3. Difficult working conditions for employees
4. Uneven service conditions under concession
5. Different business rules have to be applied
Remote areas:
1. Low demand, high cost, no incentive for utilities
2. A range of technologies available but new technologies costly,
appropriate technologies need to be developed together with
capacity to manage these services
