Tiivistelmä
In the classical energy ladder model households in developing countries will move to more modern energy sources as their economic situation improves. In the ladder model, energy sources are ranked from fuels less desirable but easier to get to more expensive but handier fuels. The energy options accumulate in the households when they get wealthier and this approach supports the adoption of the energy stacking model. As modern energy sources are connected with welfare, the ability to use modern energy is a question of equality. The study is based on field survey household data collected in two provinces, Kampong Cham and Pursat. In these provinces modern energy sources are used more in higher income groups, as also the energy ladder model suggests, and this tendency can be seen especially in urban areas. In rural areas incomes influences less to the energy use, and traditional fuels are in important role despite the incomes of a household. Electricity is even surprisingly commonly use in the observed provinces. Key findings of this study provide many useful field observations concerning electrification of rural regions in Cambodia.
