Energy subsidy reform in Sub-Saharan Africa : experiences and lessons Paperback / softback
by International Monetary Fund, Trevor Serge, International Monetary Fund, Coleridge Alleyne
Paperback / softback
Description
The reform of energy subsidies is an important but challenging issue for sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries.
There is a relatively large theoretical and empirical literature onthis issue.
While this paper relies on that literature, too, it tailors its discussion to SSA countries to respond to the following questions: Why it is important to reduce energysubsidies?
What are the difficulties involved in energy subsidy reform?
How best can a subsidy reform be implemented? This paper uses various sources of information on SSA countries: quantitative assessments, surveys, and individual (but standardised) case studies.
