Abstract

ABSTRACT Energy poverty is a complex multidimensional phenomenon perceived differently in developed and developing countries. It becomes necessary to identify the energy-poor households as energy poverty affects households in many ways, with negative consequences. This study is established upon an enhanced version of the multidimensional energy poverty index. Still, it differs from the earlier frameworks, as it incorporates two critical dimensions of 10% measurement and minimum energy required for necessities. Devising a multidimensional energy poverty index, this study analyzed the pattern and magnitude of household expenditure on energy and health among energy-poor and non-poor. This study is demonstrated in India using household-level data from the National Sample Survey 68th round. The results reveal that per capita energy and health expenditure; and the share of health expenditure in the total consumption expenditure among energy-poor households is high. Insights from this study can be a valuable input for policymakers to identify energy-poor households and frame relevant and effective policies to alleviate energy poverty.

衡量印度能源贫乏和非贫困家庭的能源和保健支出水平:分类分析

能源贫困是一个复杂的多维现象，发达国家和发展中国家对能源贫困的看法不同。有必要查明能源贫乏的家庭，因为能源贫乏在许多方面影响到家庭，产生消极后果。本研究是建立在多维能源贫困指数的改进版本上的。尽管如此，它与早期的框架有所不同，因为它包含了10%测量和必需品所需的最低能源两个关键维度。该研究设计了一个多维能源贫困指数，分析了能源贫困和非贫困家庭在能源和健康方面的支出模式和规模。本研究在印度使用来自第68轮全国抽样调查的家庭数据进行了演示。结果表明:人均能量和卫生支出;在能源贫乏家庭中，卫生支出占总消费支出的比例很高。这项研究的见解可以为政策制定者提供宝贵的投入，以确定能源贫困家庭，并制定相关和有效的政策来减轻能源贫困。
