Private sector and development goals
“Ensuring that (the much greater volumes and quality of energy required to reach the MDGs) are delivered.. will require the full engagement of the private sector and the development of innovative private-public partnerships, incorporating both business and civil society”.
From The Shell Report 2002
“The fact is poor people are energy consumers and do pay for energy services. In many places they pay more per unit of electricity generated form dry cell batteries, or per volume of heat from traditional fuels, than do people with higher incomes.”
From The Shell Report 2002
