摘要
非洲大陆特别是撒哈拉以南非洲地区是全球能源贫困的重灾区,兼具经济贫困和能源贫困的双重特性.文章基于人口结构与健康调查项目(DHS Program)的能源数据及多维能源贫困指数(MEPI),对撒哈拉以南非洲35个国家的能源贫困状况进行了评估分析.研究结果表明,这些国家普遍存在能源贫困问题,且难以摆脱,形成了"能源贫困陷阱".人均GDP的提高有利于缓解能源贫困,但不同国家之间存在能源贫困的异质性,没有一个统一的人均GDP门槛可以完全消除能源贫困.同时,文章还验证了资源密集型国家存在"资源诅咒"现象,以及家庭燃料使用存在堆叠效应.在对撒哈拉以南非洲国家能源贫困分析的基础上,提出了通过电网互联和电力联营实现区域电力一体化和合作确保地区能源可靠供应,加强国际能源合作等有助于实现能源减贫.
Abstract
The problem of energy poverty is widespread worldwide,and the African continent,espe-cially sub-Saharan Africa,is the hardest hit area,not to mention its economic poverty.This paper uses en-ergy data from the DHS Program and the Multidimensional Energy Poverty Index(MEPI)to assess and analyze energy poverty in 35 countries in sub-Saharan Africa.The results show that energy poverty is widespread in these countries and is difficult to get rid of,resulting in an"energy poverty trap".This pa-per also finds that the increase in GDP per capita is conducive to alleviating energy poverty,but there is heterogeneity of energy poverty among different countries,and there is no unified per capita GDP thresh-old that can completely eliminate energy poverty.In addition,this paper verifies the existence of a"re-source curse"phenomenon in resource-intensive countries and fuel stacking effect of household energy choice.Based on the analysis of energy poverty in sub-Saharan African countries,the paper proposes to achieve energy poverty reduction through industrialization,strengthening regional integration,and ensur-ing reliable energy supply in the region through grid interconnection and power cooperation.Internation-al energy cooperation should also be strengthened.
