Sustainable Energy Provision in Refugee Settings - Linking Relief, Rehabilitation and Development
Abstract
This research investigates how energy provision has been implemented in refugee settings. It develops a framework of analysis using concepts of linking relief rehabilitation and development and energy access (basic energy services, social infrastructures, productive uses and market based approach) to identify challenges, benefits and possibilities to improve energy provision with a long-term approach. It applies the framework to review programmes implemented in mid to long-term refugee camps and recovers opinions of energy experts and officials from humanitarian and development agencies. It concludes that programmes that take into account the interception between energy for social infrastructure and productive uses present opportunities for market development, long-term outcomes and to build possibilities for resilience among refugees and host communities.
