Summary
Access to electricity is still lacking for some 1.4 billion people - some 20% of the global population and 85% rural. Most of these people live in the rural and remote areas of the developing world and are poor. Another one billion people are served by unreliable power supply characterized by unplanned power outages, massive losses, and power quality issues.
