Indicator Summary

The availability of power refers to the capacity and reliability of a nation’s energy supply to meet the demands of households, industries, and other sectors. It encompasses electricity generation, transmission, and distribution systems, reflecting a country’s energy infrastructure and its ability to ensure uninterrupted access to power. A consistent and adequate power supply is critical for economic growth, industrial productivity, and improving living standards. It supports essential services like healthcare, education, transportation, and communication while also fostering innovation and technology adoption. However, challenges such as ageing infrastructure, dependency on non-renewable resources, and unequal distribution often limit power availability. Efforts to enhance power availability involve investments in renewable energy sources, grid modernization, and policies promoting energy efficiency. Ensuring equitable and sustainable access to power is vital for bridging development gaps, achieving energy security, and addressing environmental concerns linked to fossil fuel dependency.
