摘要

目的:自20世纪90年代中期以来,肯尼亚的电力部门有了明显的改善。其中包括发电量的增加以及接入电网的家庭和机构数量的增加。这些里程碑是在改革期间取得的。这些成果是否归功于改革是本文的主题。本文使用1993年至2018年期间的面板数据,对肯尼亚电力部门改革相对于其他四个发展中国家的影响进行了计量经济学评估。本文评估了重组、分拆、竞争和私营部门参与对电力接入的影响。方法:在本研究中,我们使用面板数据对改革的结果进行了估计。选择1993年至2018年的研究期间是基于数据的可用性,并考虑到肯尼亚、乌干达、坦桑尼亚和塞内加尔的电力部门改革始于1993年之后。研究结果:采用固定效应方法,研究得出结论,竞争是提高全国和城乡地区电力获取的关键。另一方面,重组对所研究的四个国家的电气化都有负面影响。 对理论、实践和政策的独特贡献:允许更多的参与者购买大宗能源用于后续的传输和分配,最终建立一个充分竞争的市场,从而改善电力行业的结果。

Impact of Energy Sector Reforms on Electricity Penetration in Kenya Relative to Other Reforming Developing Countries
Purpose: There are observable improvements in Kenya’s electricity sector since the mid-1990s. Among these are increase in electricity generated and an increase in number of households and institutions connected to the grid. These milestones have been achieved during the reform period. To find out whether these achievements are attributable to the reforms or not is the subject of this paper. This paper carries out an econometric evaluation of the impact of electricity sector reforms in Kenya relative to other four developing countries using panel data over the period 1993 to 2018. The paper assesses the impact of restructuring, unbundling, competition and private sector participation on electricity access. Methodology: In this study we carried out estimations of the outcome of reforms using panel data. The study period 1993 to 2018 was chosen based on data availability and also the consideration that power sector reforms in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Senegal began after 1993. Findings: Using fixed effect method the study concludes that competition is key in enhancing access to electricity nationally and in both rural and urban areas. On the other hand, restructuring has a negative impact on both electrification in the four countries under study. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Allowing more players and also in the buying of bulk energy for onward transmission and distribution with the aim of ultimately having a fully competitive marketing the sector would therefore improve the power industry outcomes.
