 '''[[File:Children reading.jpg|left|x198px|alt=Children reading.jpg]]Energy poverty '''is a lack of access to [[Access to Modern Energy|modern energy services]]. These services are defined as household access to electricity and clean cooking facilities (e.g. fuels and stoves that do not cause [[Indoor Air Pollution (IAP)|air pollution]] in houses).<ref name="IEA: http://www.iea.org/topics/energypoverty/">IEA: http://www.iea.org/topics/energypoverty/</ref>

 <br/>Abstract: Access to energy, especially modern sources, is a key to any development initiative. Based on cross-section data from a 2004 survey of some 2,300 households in rural Bangladesh, this paper studies the welfare impacts of household energy use, including that of modern energy, and estimates the household minimum energy requirement that could be used as a basis for an energy poverty line. The paper finds that although the use of both traditional (biomass energy burned in conventional stoves) and modern(electricity and kerosene) sources improves household consumption and income, the return on modern sources is 20 to 25 times higher than that on traditional sources. In addition, after comparing alternate measures of the energy poverty line, the paper finds that some 58 percent of rural households in Bangladesh are energy poor, compared with 45 percent that are income poor. The findings suggest that growth in electrification and adoption of efficient cooking stoves for biomass use can lower energy poverty in a climate-friendly way by reducing carbon dioxide emissions. Reducing energy poverty helps reduce income poverty as well.

	Access to energy is a prerequisite of human development. Energy is needed for individual survival, it is important for the provision of social services such as education and health and a critical input into all economic sectors from household production or farming, to industry. The wealth and development status of a nation and its inhabitants is closely correlated to the type and extent of access to energy. The more ready usable energy and the more efficient energy converting technologies are available, the better are the conditions for development of individuals, households, communities, the society and its economy. Thus, improving access to energy is a continuous challenge for governments and development organisations.<ref>energypedia:https://energypedia.info/wiki/Access_to_Modern_Energy#Overview</ref><br/>		Access to energy is a prerequisite of human development.
