Differential impacts of electricity access on educational outcomes: Evidence from Uganda
We investigate the differential impact of electricity access on educational outcomes in Uganda using the Uganda National Panel Survey data and employ instrumental panel probit techniques. The findings indicate that reliable electricity is associated with high school enrolment and completion. Also, the results show that education level of household head, marital status, gender, and good housing conditions are associated with better education outcomes. Our results provide evidence for designing supportive policies for increased access to reliable electricity especially among rural households where there are high disproportionately lower education outcomes. Also, the results suggest that policies to eliminate all barriers to reliable electricity access can greatly enhance educational outcomes in Uganda.

期刊介绍：
The Electricity Journal is the leading journal in electric power policy. The journal deals primarily with fuel diversity and the energy mix needed for optimal energy market performance, and therefore covers the full spectrum of energy, from coal, nuclear, natural gas and oil, to renewable energy sources including hydro, solar, geothermal and wind power. Recently, the journal has been publishing in emerging areas including energy storage, microgrid strategies, dynamic pricing, cyber security, climate change, cap and trade, distributed generation, net metering, transmission and generation market dynamics. The Electricity Journal aims to bring together the most thoughtful and influential thinkers globally from across industry, practitioners, government, policymakers and academia. The Editorial Advisory Board is comprised of electric industry thought leaders who have served as regulators, consultants, litigators, and market advocates. Their collective experience helps ensure that the most relevant and thought-provoking issues are presented to our readers, and helps navigate the emerging shape and design of the electricity/energy industry.
